Role of X-linked Inhibitor of Apoptosis Protein as Cancer Biomarker [PDF]
X-linked Inhibitor of Apoptosis Protein (XIAP), is one of the most important apoptotic inhibitors that plays a vital role in regulating various aspects of cell functions including cell cycle progression, arrest, and apoptosis.

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

Anticancer Effect of Fluorouracil and Gum-Based Cerium Oxide Nanoparticles on Human Malignant Colon Carcinoma Cell Line (Caco2) [PDF]
Objective: We investigated whether co-incubation of 5-FU and gum-based cerium oxide nanoparticles (CeO2 NPs) would improve half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) and apoptosis in the Caco-2 cancer cell lineMaterials and Methods: In this ...

Structure and Activation Mechanism of the Drosophila Initiator Caspase Dronc [PDF]
Activation of an initiator caspase is essential to the execution of apoptosis. The molecular mechanisms by which initiator caspases are activated remain poorly understood.

ILP-2: A New Bane and Therapeutic Target for Human Cancers
Inhibitor of apoptosis protein-related-like protein-2 (ILP-2), also known as BIRC-8, is a member of the inhibitor of apoptosis protein (IAPs) family, which mainly encodes the negative regulator of apoptosis.

Cell Death Triggers Induce MLKL Cleavage in Multiple Myeloma Cells, Which may Promote Cell Death
Necroptosis is a type of caspase-independent programmed cell death that has been implicated in cancer development. Activation of the canonical necroptotic pathway is often characterized with successive signaling events as the phosphorylation of mixed ...
