Bcl-XL prevents serum deprivation-induced oxidative stress mediated by Romo1.
B-cell lymphoma-extra large (Bcl-XL) has been known to suppress serum deprivation-induced cell death, while reactive oxygen species modulator 1 (Romo1) is responsible for a serum deprivation-induced increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS). Therefore, we investigated whether Bcl-XL expression could inhibit the serum deprivation-induced increase in ROS and cell death, which are mediated by Romo...
متن کاملProtein Isoaspartate Methyltransferase Prevents Apoptosis Induced by Oxidative Stress in Endothelial Cells: Role of Bcl-Xl Deamidation and Methylation
BACKGROUND Natural proteins undergo in vivo spontaneous post-biosynthetic deamidation of specific asparagine residues with isoaspartyl formation. Deamidated-isomerized molecules are both structurally and functionally altered. The enzyme isoaspartyl protein carboxyl-O-methyltransferase (PCMT; EC 2.1.1.77) has peculiar substrate specificity towards these deamidated proteins. It catalyzes methyl e...
متن کاملThe Bcl-2 proteins Noxa and Bcl-xL co-ordinately regulate oxidative stress-induced apoptosis.
Because the detailed molecular mechanisms by which oxidative stress induces apoptosis are not completely known, we investigated how the complex Bcl-2 protein network might regulate oxidative stress-induced apoptosis. Using MEFs (mouse embryonic fibroblasts), we found that the endogenous anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 protein Bcl-xL prevented apoptosis initiated by H(2)O(2). The BH3 (Bcl-2 homology 3)-onl...
متن کاملBcl-xL induces Drp1-dependent synapse formation in cultured hippocampal neurons.
Maturation of neuronal synapses is thought to involve mitochondria. Bcl-xL protein inhibits mitochondria-mediated apoptosis but may have other functions in healthy adult neurons in which Bcl-xL is abundant. Here, we report that overexpression of Bcl-xL postsynaptically increases frequency and amplitude of spontaneous miniature synaptic currents in rat hippocampal neurons in culture. Bcl-xL, ove...
متن کاملOxidative Stress Mediated-Alterations of the MicroRNA Expression Profile in Mouse Hippocampal Neurons
Oxidative stress plays a critical role in the etiology and pathogenesis of neurodegenerative disorders, and the molecular mechanisms that control the neuron response to ROS have been extensively studied. However, the oxidative stress-effect on miRNA expression in hippocampal neurons has not been investigated, and little is known on the effect of ROS-modulated miRNAs on cell function. In this st...
