$Sp(8)$ invariant higher spin theory, twistors and geometric BRST formulation of unfolded field equations [PDF]

open access: yesJHEP 0912:021,2009, 2009
We discuss twistor-like interpretation of the $Sp(8)$ invariant formulation of 4d massless fields in ten dimensional Lagrangian Grassmannian $Sp(8)/P$ which is the generalized space-time in this framework. The correspondence space $\mathbf{C}$ is $SpH(8)/PH$ where $SpH(8)$ is the semidirect product of $Sp(8)$ with Heisenberg group $\HG$ and $PH$ is ...

Monte Carlo Study Elucidates the Type 1/Type 2 Choice in Apoptotic Death Signaling in Healthy and Cancer Cells

open access: yesCells, 2013
Apoptotic cell death is coordinated through two distinct (type 1 and type 2) intracellular signaling pathways. How the type 1/type 2 choice is made remains a central problem in the biology of apoptosis and has implications for apoptosis related diseases ...

Tyrosine Phosphorylation of Caspase-8 Abrogates Its Apoptotic Activity and Promotes Activation of c-Src. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Src family tyrosine kinases (SFKs) phosphorylate caspase-8A at tyrosine (Y) 397 resulting in suppression of apoptosis. In addition, the phosphorylation of caspase-8A at other sites including Y465 has been implicated in the regulation of caspase-8 ...

Multiplex single‐cell profiling of putative cancer stem cell markers ALDH1, SOX9, SOX2, CD44, CD133 and CD15 in endometrial cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cancer stem cells are associated with aggressive disease, but a deep characterization of such markers is lacking in endometrial cancer. This study uses imaging mass cytometry to explore putative cancer stem cell markers in endometrial tumors and corresponding organoid models.

Targeting Caspase 8: Using Structural and Ligand-Based Approaches to Identify Potential Leads for the Treatment of Multi-Neurodegenerative Diseases

open access: yesMolecules, 2019
Caspase 8 is a central player in the apoptotic cell death pathway and is also essential for cytokine processing. The critical role of this protease in cell death pathways has generated research interest because its activation has also been linked with ...

Study of Caspase 8 Inhibition for the Management of Alzheimer’s Disease: A Molecular Docking and Dynamics Simulation

open access: yesMolecules, 2020
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common type of dementia and usually manifests as diminished episodic memory and cognitive functions. Caspases are crucial mediators of neuronal death in a number of neurodegenerative diseases, and caspase 8 is ...

Non-apoptotic function of caspase-8 confers prostate cancer enzalutamide resistance via NF-κB activation

open access: yesCell Death and Disease, 2021
Caspase-8 is a unique member of caspases with a dual role in cell death and survival. Caspase-8 expression is often lost in some tumors, but increased in others, indicating a potential pro-survival function in cancer.

TOMM20 as a driver of cancer aggressiveness via oxidative phosphorylation, maintenance of a reduced state, and resistance to apoptosis

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
TOMM20 increases cancer aggressiveness by maintaining a reduced state with increased NADH and NADPH levels, oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS), and apoptosis resistance while reducing reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels. Conversely, CRISPR‐Cas9 knockdown of TOMM20 alters these cancer‐aggressive traits.

The Effect of Diclofenac on Caspase-8 and Caspase-9 Activity in Cervical Cancer Cells (HeLa) in Cell Culture

open access: yesMajallah-i Dānishgāh-i ̒Ulūm-i Pizishkī-i Qum, 2018
Background and Objectives: Studies have shown that drugs can affect on proliferation of cancer cells. The main aim of this study was to determine the effects of diclofenac on caspase-8 and caspase-9 activity in cervical cancer cells (HeLa) in cell ...

Overexpression of miR-382 Sensitizes Hepatocellular Carcinoma Cells to γδ T Cells by Inhibiting the Expression of c-FLIP

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Oncolytics, 2020
Human γδ T lymphocytes were reported to display anti-tumor effects against multiple cancers, including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Aberrant expression of microRNAs (miRNAs) leads to a low response to immunotherapy.
