Evidence for Two Modes of Synergistic Induction of Apoptosis by Mapatumumab and Oxaliplatin in Combination with Hyperthermia in Human Colon Cancer Cells [PDF]
Colorectal cancer is the third leading cause of cancer-related mortality in the world-- the main cause of death from colorectal cancer is hepatic metastases, which can be treated with isolated hepatic perfusion (IHP).

The Cell-Cycle Regulatory Protein p21CIP1/WAF1 Is Required for Cytolethal Distending Toxin (Cdt)-Induced Apoptosis. [PDF]
The Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans cytolethal distending toxin (Cdt) induces lymphocytes to undergo cell-cycle arrest and apoptosis; toxicity is dependent upon the active Cdt subunit, CdtB.

Inhibition of USP7 activity selectively eliminates senescent cells in part via restoration of p53 activity. [PDF]
The accumulation of senescent cells (SnCs) is a causal factor of various age-related diseases as well as some of the side effects of chemotherapy. Pharmacological elimination of SnCs (senolysis) has the potential to be developed into novel therapeutic ...

IAPS : More than just inhibitors of apoptosis proteins [PDF]
Inhibitors of apoptosis proteins (IAPs) are a conserved family of proteins identified in species ranging from virus, yeasts, nematodes, fishes, flies and mammals. The common structural feature is the presence of at least one Baculovirus IAP Repeat (BIR) domain. Hence, IAPs are also known as BIR-containing proteins (BIRCs).

Inhibitors of apoptosis proteins in human cervical cancer [PDF]
AbstractBackgroundIt has been shown that IAPs, in particular XIAP, survivin and c-IAP1, are overexpressed in several malignancies. In the present study we investigate the expression of c-IAP1, c-IAP2, XIAP and survivin and its isoforms in cervical cancer.MethodsWe used semiquantitative RT-PCR assays to analyze 41 cancer and 6 normal tissues.

Inhibitors of Apoptosis Proteins in Injury and Disease [PDF]
AbstractThe inhibitor of apoptosis (IAP) gene family prevents cell death by binding to and inhibiting caspases. In addition to negatively regulating apoptosis, IAPs bind to signaling intermediates and receptors, and participate in diverse cellular functions.
