Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play roles in the tumorigenesis, proliferation and metastasis of tumor cells. Previous studies indicate that the transcription factor Sp1 is responsible for transcription of the XIAP gene, but it is unknown whether lncRNAs ...

XIAP Regulates Caspase Activity in Degenerating Axons
Our knowledge of the destructive events that regulate axonal degeneration is rudimentary. Here, we examine the role of caspases and their endogenous inhibitor, the X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein (XIAP), in axonal degeneration of dorsal root ...

Evolution of Our Understanding of XIAP Deficiency [PDF]
X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis (XIAP) deficiency is a rare inborn error of immunity first described in 2006. XIAP deficiency is characterised by immune dysregulation and a broad spectrum of clinical manifestations, including haemophagocytic ...

Sex-Specific Factors Influencing HIV Infection. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Immune responses are key in controlling viral infections such as HIV‐1, which remains a global challenge to public health. X/Y‐chromosome‐encoded genes and sex steroid hormones can modulate immune cells and drive distinct patterns of gene and protein expression involved in antiviral function, impacting sex‐dependent immune responses and ...

XIAP inhibits autophagy via XIAP‐Mdm2‐p53 signalling [PDF]
The primary role of autophagy is adaption to starvation. However, increasing evidence suggests that autophagy inhibition also plays an important role in tumorigenesis. Upregulation of X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis (XIAP) has been associated to a variety of human cancers, yet the underlying mechanisms remain obscure.

Background The X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein (XIAP) is the most potent caspase inhibitor of the IAP family in apoptosis pathway. This study aims to identify the molecular targets of XIAP in human breast cancer cells exposed to XIAP siRNA by ...

Increased migration and motility in XIAP-null cells mediated by the C-RAF protein kinase
The product encoded by the X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis (XIAP) gene is a multi-functional protein which not only controls caspase-dependent cell death, but also participates in inflammatory signalling, copper homeostasis, response to hypoxia and ...

XIAP: inhibitor of two worlds [PDF]
Autophagy is a catabolic mechanism that selectively eliminates long-lived proteins, aggregates and damaged organelles and is thereby fundamental in maintaining cellular homeostasis. As a prosurvival mechanism, autophagy is carefully regulated and its dysfunction is associated with cancer development. Work of Huang et al (2013) in this issue of The EMBO

Characterization of XIAP-Deficient Mice [PDF]
The inhibitor of apoptosis protein (IAP) family consists of a number of evolutionarily conserved proteins that function to inhibit programmed cell death. X-linked IAP (XIAP) was cloned due to its sequence homology with other family members and has previously been shown to prevent apoptosis by binding to active caspases 3, 7, and 9 in vitro.
