The Effects of Ibuprofen Cytoxic Dose on caspase-3, -8 and -9 Activity level in cervical cancer (Hela) cells

open access: yesMajallah-i Dānishgāh-i ̒Ulūm-i Pizishkī-i Bābul, 2019
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Studies have shown that ibuprofen can have an anti-cancer effect on cervical cells, although the mechanism of this effect is not well known in cellular and molecular terms.

Contribution of caspase-8 to apoptosis of axotomized rat retinal ganglion cells in vivo

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2003
We have investigated the role of caspase-8 and its mode of activation during apoptosis of adult rat retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) in vivo. Retinal pro-caspase-8 expression was almost completely restricted to RGCs.

RIPK1 promotes death receptor-independent caspase-8-mediated apoptosis under unresolved ER stress conditions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Accumulation of unfolded proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) causes ER stress and results in the activation of the unfolded protein response (UPR), which aims at restoring ER homeostasis.

dsDNA ASCs for caspase 8-mediated apoptosis [PDF]

open access: yesCell Death & Differentiation, 2013
In the dim and distant past of research, there was only place for one form of cell death. Necrosis was the only known way for cells to die, and pathologists generally defined all cells with a dying phenotype as necrotic. This restricted view was challenged in 1972 when Kerr et al.1 defined apoptosis as a novel form of cell death, which was ...

Liquid biopsy epigenetics: establishing a molecular profile based on cell‐free DNA

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) fragments in plasma from cancer patients carry epigenetic signatures reflecting their cells of origin. These epigenetic features include DNA methylation, nucleosome modifications, and variations in fragmentation. This review describes the biological properties of each feature and explores optimal strategies for harnessing cfDNA ...

Brainiac Caspases: Beyond the Wall of Apoptosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
For the last two decades, caspases, a family of cysteine-aspartic proteases, have evolved from being considered solely as regulators of apoptosis or inflammation to having a wider range of functions.

Caspase-8: Clipping off RIG-I Signaling [PDF]

open access: yesImmunity, 2011
Activation of the RIG-I signaling molecule is essential for antiviral immunity but mechanisms downmodulating the response are ill defined. In this issue of Immunity, Rajput et al. (2011) describe caspase-8-mediated RIP1 cleavage as a key step for restricting RIG-I signaling.

Class IIa HDACs forced degradation allows resensitization of oxaliplatin‐resistant FBXW7‐mutated colorectal cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
HDAC4 is degraded by the E3 ligase FBXW7. In colorectal cancer, FBXW7 mutations prevent HDAC4 degradation, leading to oxaliplatin resistance. Forced degradation of HDAC4 using a PROTAC compound restores drug sensitivity by resetting the super‐enhancer landscape, reprogramming the epigenetic state of FBXW7‐mutated cells to resemble oxaliplatin ...

Saturated free fatty acids and apoptosis in microvascular mesangial cells: palmitate activates pro-apoptotic signaling involving caspase 9 and mitochondrial release of endonuclease G [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
BACKGROUND: In type 2 diabetes, free fatty acids (FFA) accumulate in microvascular cells, but the phenotypic consequences of FFA accumulation in the microvasculature are incompletely understood. Here we investigated whether saturated FFA induce apoptosis

Dual targeting of RET and SRC synergizes in RET fusion‐positive cancer cells

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Despite the strong activity of selective RET tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), resistance of RET fusion‐positive (RET+) lung cancer and thyroid cancer frequently occurs and is mainly driven by RET‐independent bypass mechanisms. Son et al. show that SRC TKIs significantly inhibit PAK and AKT survival signaling and enhance the efficacy of RET TKIs in ...
