A Mechanism for Death Receptor Discrimination by Death Adaptors [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2005
The death domain and death effector domain are two common motifs that mediate protein-protein interactions between components of cell death signaling complexes. The mechanism by which these domains engage their binding partners has been explored by extensive mutagenesis of two death adaptors, FADD and TRADD, suggesting that a death adaptor can ...

Mechanisms of Apoptosis in the Ovary

open access: yesScientific Papers Animal Science and Biotechnologies, 2023
Of ovarian follicular reserve, only a small part of these follicles reach maturity, most of them suffering an involution process called follicular atresia.

(−)-Agelasidine A Induces Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress-Dependent Apoptosis in Human Hepatocellular Carcinoma

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2022
Liver cancers, such as hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), are a highly prevalent cause of cancer-related deaths. Current treatments to combat liver cancer are limited.

Overcoming TRAIL Resistance for Glioblastoma Treatment

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2021
The tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) shows a promising therapeutic potential in cancer treatment as it exclusively causes apoptosis in a broad spectrum of cancer cells through triggering the extrinsic apoptosis ...

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 ...

Dopamine receptor D2 regulates glioblastoma survival and death through MET and death receptor 4/5

open access: yesNeoplasia: An International Journal for Oncology Research, 2023
Recent studies indicate that signaling molecules traditionally associated with central nervous system function play critical roles in cancer. Dopamine receptor signaling is implicated in various cancers including glioblastoma (GBM) and it is a recognized

Death receptors in chemotherapy and cancer [PDF]

open access: yesOncogene, 2004
Apoptosis, the cell's intrinsic death program, is a key regulator of tissue homeostasis. An imbalance between cell death and proliferation may result in tumor formation. Also, killing of cancer cells by cytotoxic therapies such as chemotherapy, gamma-irradiation or ligation of death receptors is predominantly mediated by triggering apoptosis in target ...

Death Receptors and Their Ligands in Atherosclerosis [PDF]

open access: yesArteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology, 2008
Atherosclerosis is characterized by the accumulation of a fibro-fatty plaque consisting of immune cells, vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs), vascular endothelial cells (ECs), and extracellular matrix, surrounding a lipid-rich core. The complexity of atherosclerosis is highlighted by the multifaceted effects that apoptosis and proliferation of ...

The Apoptosome: Heart and Soul of the Cell Death Machine

open access: yesNeoplasia: An International Journal for Oncology Research, 1999
Apoptosis is a fundamental biologic process by which metazoan cells orchestrate their own self-demise. Genetic analyses of the nematode C elegans identified three core components of the suicide apparatus which include CED-3, CED-4, and CED-9.

Death Receptor Interactions With the Mitochondrial Cell Death Pathway During Immune Cell-, Drug- and Toxin-Induced Liver Damage

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2019
Due to its extensive vascularization and physiological function as a filter and storage organ, the liver is constantly exposed to infectious and tumorigenic threat, as well as damaging actions of xenobiotics.
