The convergence of radiation and immunogenic cell death signaling pathways. [PDF]
Ionizing radiation (IR) triggers programmed cell death in tumor cells through a variety of highly regulated processes. Radiation-induced tumor cell death has been studied extensively in vitro and is widely attributed to multiple distinct mechanisms ...

Serum and synovial fluid lipidomic profiles predict obesity-associated osteoarthritis, synovitis, and wound repair [PDF]
High-fat diet-induced obesity is a major risk factor for osteoarthritis (OA) and diminished wound healing. The objective of this study was to determine the associations among serum and synovial fluid lipid levels with OA, synovitis, adipokine levels, and

Avicin D, a plant triterpenoid, induces cell apoptosis by recruitment of Fas and downstream signaling molecules into lipid rafts. [PDF]
Avicins, a family of triterpene electrophiles originally identified as potent inhibitors of tumor cell growth, have been shown to be pleiotropic compounds that also possess antioxidant, anti-mutagenic, and anti-inflammatory activities.

<abstract> <p>Soluble Fas ligand (sFasL, sCD95L) and its specific soluble binders, soluble Fas receptor (sFas, sCD95) and decoy receptor 3 (DcR3), have been investigated as possible clinical biomarkers in many serious diseases. The present review aimed to provide an overview of the current state of this medically promising research by ...

Requirement of Cysteine-rich Repeats of the Fas Receptor for Binding by the Fas Ligand [PDF]
The Fas receptor is a member of a family of cell death receptors, including tumor necrosis factor receptor I (TNFR I), death receptor 3 and 4 (DR3 and DR4), and cytopathic avian receptor 1 (CAR1). The Fas receptor is composed of several discrete domains, including three cysteine-rich domains (CRDs), a transmembrane domain, and an intracellular domain ...

The Role of GLI-1 in Endocrine Resistant Breast Cancer [PDF]
Estrogen receptor positive (ER+) and estrogen receptor negative (ER-) are two major types of breast cancer. For women with ER+ positive breast cancer, patients are treated with the antiestrogenic compounds, tamoxifen or faslodex for five years ...

Depletion of RIPK3 or MLKL blocks TNF-driven necroptosis and switches towards a delayed RIPK1 kinase-dependent apoptosis [PDF]
In human cells, the RIPK1-RIPK3-MLKL-PGAM5-Drp1 axis drives tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-induced necroptosis through mitochondrial fission, but whether this pathway is conserved among mammals is not known. To answer this question, we analyzed the presence

The Diversity and Similarity of Transmembrane Trimerization of TNF Receptors
Receptors in the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily (TNFRSF) regulate proliferation of immune cells or induce programmed cell death, and many of them are candidates for antibody-based immunotherapy.

FAS mediates apoptosis, inflammation, and treatment of pathogen infection
The FAS cell surface death receptor, a member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor family, activates both apoptotic and non-apoptotic signaling upon interaction with its ligand FASL.
