Microglial activation induces neuronal death in Chandipura virus infection
Neurotropic viruses induce neurodegeneration either directly by activating host death domains or indirectly through host immune response pathways. Chandipura Virus (CHPV) belonging to family Rhabdoviridae is ranked among the emerging pathogens of the Indian subcontinent. Previously we have reported that CHPV induces neurodegeneration albeit the root cause of this degeneration is still an open q...
متن کاملTitanium dioxide induces apoptotic cell death through reactive oxygen species-mediated Fas upregulation and Bax activation
BACKGROUND Titanium dioxide (TiO(2)) has been widely used in many areas, including biomedicine, cosmetics, and environmental engineering. Recently, it has become evident that some TiO(2) particles have a considerable cytotoxic effect in normal human cells. However, the molecular basis for the cytotoxicity of TiO(2) has yet to be defined. METHODS AND RESULTS In this study, we demonstrated that...
متن کاملPoncirin Induces Apoptosis in AGS Human Gastric Cancer Cells through Extrinsic Apoptotic Pathway by up-Regulation of Fas Ligand
Poncirin, a natural bitter flavanone glycoside abundantly present in many species of citrus fruits, has various biological benefits such as anti-oxidant, anti-microbial, anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer activities. The anti-cancer mechanism of Poncirin remains elusive to date. In this study, we investigated the anti-cancer effects of Poncirin in AGS human gastric cancer cells (gastric adenocar...
متن کاملBleomycin induces the extrinsic apoptotic pathway in pulmonary endothelial cells.
Bleomycin, a chemotherapeutic agent, can cause pulmonary fibrosis in humans and is commonly used to induce experimental pulmonary fibrosis in rodents. In cell culture, bleomycin causes single- and double-stranded DNA breaks and produces reactive oxidative species, both of which require iron (Fe(2+)) and O(2). The mechanism of bleomycin-induced apoptosis is controversial due to its complexity. W...
متن کاملEvidence for a Novel, Caspase-8-Independent, Fas Death Domain-Mediated Apoptotic Pathway
Certain caspase-8 null cell lines demonstrate resistance to Fas-induced apoptosis, indicating that the Fas/FasL apoptotic pathway may be caspase-8-dependent. Some reports, however, have shown that Fas induces cell death independent of caspase-8. Here we provide evidence for an alternative, caspase-8-independent, Fas death domain-mediated apoptotic pathway. Murine 12B1-D1 cells express procaspas...
