Death receptor signals to the mitochondria [PDF]
Apoptosis is the best-characterized form of programmed cell death (PCD) and is of fundamental importance in tissue homeostasis. In mammalian systems, there are two major pathways that are involved in the initiation of apoptosis: the "extrinsic" death receptor pathway and the "intrinsic" mitochondrial pathway.

Induction of p53-Dependent Apoptosis by Prostaglandin A2
Prostaglandin (PG) A2, one of cyclopentenone PGs, is known to induce activation of apoptosis in various cancer cells. Although PGA2 has been reported to cause activation of apoptosis by altering the expression of apoptosis-related genes, the role of p53,

Tristetraprolin Posttranscriptionally Downregulates TRAIL Death Receptors
Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) has attracted attention as a potential candidate for cancer therapy. However, many primary cancers are resistant to TRAIL, even when combined with standard chemotherapy.

Life and death by death receptors
ABSTRACT Death receptors are members of the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily characterized by a cytoplasmic region known as the “death domain” that enables the receptors to initiate cytotoxic signals when engaged by cognate ligands. Binding to the ligand results in receptor aggregation and recruitment of

TRAIL/Apo-2L: Mechanisms and Clinical Applications in Cancer
TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL/APO2L) is a member of the TNF family that promotes apoptosis by binding to the transmembrane receptors TRAIL-R1 /DR4 and TRAIL-R2/DR5.

LUBAC prevents lethal dermatitis by inhibiting cell death induced by TNF, TRAIL and CD95L
TNF mediated inflammation is critical in autoimmune mediated pathology, however many patients are refractory to current anti-TNF therapeutics. Here the authors show induction of several death ligands, in addition to TNF is sufficient to cause fatal ...
