Filoviruses: Innate Immunity, Inflammatory Cell Death, and Cytokines

open access: yesPathogens, 2022
Filoviruses are a group of single-stranded negative sense RNA viruses. The most well-known filoviruses that affect humans are ebolaviruses and marburgviruses. During infection, they can cause life-threatening symptoms such as inflammation, tissue damage,

Death Receptor-Mediated Cell Death and Proinflammatory Signaling in Nonalcoholic SteatohepatitisSummary

open access: yesCellular and Molecular Gastroenterology and Hepatology, 2015
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is becoming a public health problem worldwide. A subset of patients develop an inflammatory disease, nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), characterized by steatosis, hepatocellular death, macrophage and neutrophil

NOD Signaling and Cell Death

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2019
Innate immune signaling and programmed cell death are intimately linked, and many signaling pathways can regulate and induce both, transcription of inflammatory mediators or autonomous cell death.

AMPA receptors are the major mediators of excitotoxic death in mature oligodendrocytes

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2003
Myelination of axons is important for central nervous system function, but oligodendrocytes, which constitute CNS myelin, are vulnerable to excitotoxic injury and death.

P2X7 receptor: Death or life? [PDF]

open access: yesPurinergic Signalling, 2005
The P2X(7) plasma membrane receptor is an intriguing molecule that is endowed with the ability to kill cells, as well as to activate many responses and even stimulate proliferation. Here, the authors give an overview on the multiplicity and complexity of P2X(7)-mediated responses, discussing recent information on this receptor. Particular attention has

Regulation of anoikis by extrinsic death receptor pathways

open access: yesCell Communication and Signaling, 2023
Metastatic cancer cells can develop anoikis resistance in the absence of substrate attachment and survive to fight tumors. Anoikis is mediated by endogenous mitochondria-dependent and exogenous death receptor pathways, and studies have shown that caspase-

Mediation of autophagic cell death by type 3 ryanodine receptor (RyR3) in adult hippocampal neural stem cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2016
Cytoplasmic Ca2+ actively engages in diverse intracellular processes from protein synthesis, folding and trafficking to cell survival and death. Dysregulation of intracellular Ca2+ levels is observed in various neuropathological states including ...
