[Letter to the Editor] DNA Fragmentation Is Not Associated with Apoptosis in Zerumbone-induced HepG2 Cells
Zerumbone is a cytotoxic compound isolated from the herbal plant, Zingiber zerumbet Smith, which exhibits antitumor activity [1-2], anti-inflammatory effects and possesses anti-proliferative potentials in a variety of cell lines [3-4]. DNA fragmentation indicates an early event of apoptosis leading to cell death due to the absence of new cellular proteins synthesizing for cell survival. Previou...
متن کاملEndothelial microparticle uptake in target cells is annexin I/phosphatidylserine receptor dependent and prevents apoptosis.
OBJECTIVE Endothelial microparticles (EMP) are released from activated or apoptotic cells, but their effect on target cells and the exact way of incorporation are largely unknown. We sought to determine the uptake mechanism and the biological effect of EMP on endothelial and endothelial-regenerating cells. METHODS AND RESULTS EMP were generated from starved endothelial cells and isolated by u...
متن کاملCyclophosphamide induces caspase 9-dependent apoptosis in 9L tumor cells.
Cyclophosphamide (CPA), a widely used oxazaphosphorine anti-cancer prodrug, is inactive until it is metabolized by cytochrome P450 to yield phosphoramide mustard and acrolein, which alkylate DNA and proteins, respectively. Tumor cells transduced with the human cytochrome P450 gene CYP2B6 are greatly sensitized to CPA, however, the pathway of CPA-induced cell death is unknown. The present study ...
متن کاملMitochondrial-dependent caspase activation pathway is involved in baicalein-induced apoptosis in human hepatoma J5 cells.
Baicalein has been reported to induce growth-inhibitory activity in vitro in human cancer cells; however, the molecular mechanism of action is not completely understood. A pharmacological dose (10-100 microM) of baicalein exerted a cytotoxic effect on human hepatoma J5 cells resulting in G2/M arrest and apoptosis. In addition to cytotoxicity in J5 cells, several apoptotic events including mitoc...
متن کاملAnnexin A1 Is Increased in the Plasma of Preeclamptic Women
BACKGROUND Preeclampsia (PE) is a pregnancy disease associated with exacerbated inflammatory response. Annexin A1 (AnxA1) is a glucocorticoid-regulated protein endowed with anti-inflammatory and proresolving properties that has been much studied in various animal models of inflammation but poorly studied in the context of human inflammatory diseases. The main objective of this study was to meas...
