Investigation of the cellular response to bone fractures: evidence for flexoelectricity [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports volume 10, Article number: 254 (2020), 2020
The recent discovery of bone flexoelectricity (electrical polarization induced by strain gradient) suggests that flexoelectricity could have physiological effects in bones, and specifically near bone fractures, where flexoelectricity is theoretically highest. Here, we report a cytological study of the interaction between crack stress and bone cells. We

Bcl-2, active caspase-9 and inactive caspase-9 levels as markers of apoptosis in the serum and tissue of vitiligo patients

open access: yesAl-Azhar Assiut Medical Journal, 2017
Background Vitiligo is the most common depigmentation disorder of the skin. It is considered a multifactorial disorder. However, its exact etiology is unknown.

Neuroglobin protects nerve cells from apoptosis by inhibiting the intrinsic pathway of cell death [PDF]

open access: yesApoptosis 15:401-411 (2010), 2010
In the past few years, overwhelming evidence has accrued that a high level of expression of the protein neuroglobin protects neurons in vitro, in animal models, and in humans, against cell death associated with hypoxic and amyloid insult. However, until now, the exact mechanism of neuroglobin's protective action has not been determined.

Altered of apoptotic markers of both extrinsic and intrinsic pathways induced by hepatitis C virus infection in peripheral blood mononuclear cells

open access: yesVirology Journal, 2012
Background Chronic hepatitis C (CHC) has emerged as a leading cause of cirrhosis in the U.S. and across the world. To understand the role of apoptotic pathways in hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, we studied the mRNA and protein expression patterns of ...

Caspase 9 Promoter Polymorphisms (-1263G>A, -905T>G, -712C>T) in Coronary Artery Disease [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2020
Introduction: Apoptosis has been involved in a number of pathological conditions including Coronary Artery Disease (CAD). Caspases are important regulators and executioners in both extrinsic and intrinsic apoptotic pathways.

Effect of chlorpyrifos on the level of hippocampal caspase 9 in male rats: Short Commuincation

open access: yesمجله دانشگاه علوم پزشکی بیرجند, 2023
Chlorpyrifos (CPF) is an organophosphate pesticide that can damage the nervous system of insects by causing neurotoxicity. Although the molecular mechanisms related to it are not fully understood, some studies have suggested that apoptotic processes are ...

Apoptotic Volume Decrease (AVD) Is Independent of Mitochondrial Dysfunction and Initiator Caspase Activation

open access: yesCells, 2012
Persistent cell shrinkage is a major hallmark of apoptotic cell death. The early-phase shrinkage, which starts within 30−120 min after apoptotic stimulation and is called apoptotic volume decrease (AVD), is known to be accomplished by activation of K ...

Engineering a dimeric caspase-9: a re-evaluation of the induced proximity model for caspase activation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2005
Caspases are responsible for the execution of programmed cell death (apoptosis) and must undergo proteolytic activation, in response to apoptotic stimuli, to function.

Proximity-induced caspase-9 activation on a DNA origami-based synthetic apoptosome

open access: yesNature Catalysis, 2019
Living cells regulate key cellular processes by spatial organization of catalytically active proteins in higher-order signalling complexes. These act as organizing centres to facilitate proximity-induced activation and inhibition of multiple ...
