Research advances Progress in mechanistic studies of renal fibrosis based upon regulatory cell death

open access: yesLinchuang shenzangbing zazhi
As a basic pathological feature at advanced stage of various kidney diseases, renal fibrosis (RF) is an important cause of kidney failure. It is characterized by an excessive accumulation of extracellular matrix (ECM), damage of renal tissue structure ...

Ferroptosis in cardiovascular diseases: role and mechanism

open access: yesCell & Bioscience, 2023
In multicellular organisms, regulatory cell death is a crucial aspect of growth and development. Ferroptosis, which was postulated roughly ten years ago, is a mode of cell death that differs from apoptosis, autophagy, and pyrodeath. This distinct pattern

Regulatory mechanism of ferroptosis, a new mode of cell death

open access: yesTropical Journal of Pharmaceutical Research, 2019
Ferroptosis is a newly discovered process of cell death that differs from apoptosis, autophagy, and pyroptosis. It is closely related to tumor formation, diseases that damage tissue, and neurodegenerative diseases. Activation of the extracellular regulated protein kinase (EPK) pathway and acylCOA synthetase long-chain family member 4 (ACSL4) are ...

Human T Regulatory Cells Can Use the Perforin Pathway to Cause Autologous Target Cell Death [PDF]

open access: yesImmunity, 2004
Cytotoxic T lymphocytes and natural killer cells use the perforin/granzyme pathway to kill virally infected cells and tumor cells. Mutations in genes important for this pathway are associated with several human diseases. CD4(+) T regulatory (Treg) cells have emerged as important in the control of immunopathological processes.

Developmental beta-cell death orchestrates the islet’s inflammatory milieu by regulating immune system crosstalk

open access: yesThe EMBO Journal
While pancreatic beta-cell proliferation has been extensively studied, the role of cell death during islet development remains incompletely understood. Using a genetic model of caspase inhibition in beta cells coupled with mathematical modeling, we here ...

Ferroptosis mechanism and Alzheimer's disease

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research
Regulated cell death is a genetically determined form of programmed cell death that commonly occurs during the development of living organisms. This process plays a crucial role in modulating homeostasis and is evolutionarily conserved across a diverse ...

Cell death and life in cancer: mathematical modeling of cell fate decisions

open access: yes, 2011
Tumor development is characterized by a compromised balance between cell life and death decision mechanisms, which are tighly regulated in normal cells.

CD8 T‐cell regulation by T regulatory cells and the programmed cell death protein 1 pathway [PDF]

open access: yesImmunology, 2017
SummaryThe primary function of the immune system is to protect the host from infectious microorganisms and cancers. However, a major component of the immune response involves the direct elimination of cells in the body and the induction of systemic inflammation, which may result in life‐threatening immunopathology.

Assessing the carcinogenic potential of low-dose exposures to chemical mixtures in the environment: the challenge ahead. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Lifestyle factors are responsible for a considerable portion of cancer incidence worldwide, but credible estimates from the World Health Organization and the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) suggest that the fraction of cancers ...

Regulatory roles of cell surface sialylation in sphingolipid-induced cell death in human B cell lymphoma

open access: yesOncology Reports, 2006
Sphingolipid metabolites are important regulators of cell growth and death. In the present study, we examined the function of cell surface sialic acid in exogenous sphingosine-1-phosphate (S-1-P) or sphingosine-induced cell death. HBL-2 human diffuse large B cell lymphoma cells were incubated with or without Vibrio Cholerae neuraminidase followed by S ...
