Dual Trade of Bcl-2 and Bcl-xL in Islet Physiology
Apoptosis is now recognized as a predominant mechanism by which b cells are destroyed in both type 1 and type 2 diabetes (1). Proand antiapoptotic members of the Bcl-2 family are central regulators involved in b-cell fate decision between life and death in response to physiological insults. The intricate interplay and balance between members of this family regulate apoptosis by controlling mito...
متن کاملBcl-2 family members: dual regulators of apoptosis and autophagy.
The essential autophagy protein and haplo-insufficient tumor suppressor, Beclin 1, interacts with several cofactors (Ambra1, Bif-1, UVRAG) to activate the lipid kinase Vps34, thereby inducing autophagy. In normal conditions, Beclin 1 is bound to and inhibited by Bcl-2 or the Bcl-2 homolog Bcl-X(L). This interaction involves a Bcl-2 homology 3 (BH3) domain in Beclin 1 and the BH3 binding groove ...
متن کاملBcl-2
Recent findings from our laboratory provide the first indication that overexpression of Bcl-2 in Eµ-myc transgenic cells enhances tumor immunosurveillance by inducing NKG2D ligands. Initial evidence suggests that this model is relevant to human patients. Thus, antitumor therapies that target Bcl-2 harbor the risk of reducing tumor immunogenicity.

Other names: BAM, BIM, BIM-alpha6, BIM-beta6, BIM-beta7, BOD, BimEL, BimL HGNC (Hugo): BCL2L11 Location: 2q13 Local order: According to GeneLoc and NCBI Map Viewer, genes flanking BCL2L11 in plus strand direction are: ACOXL 2q13 (acyl-Coenzyme A oxidase-like); PAFAH1P2 2q13 (platelet-activating factor acetylhydrolase, isoform Ib, pseudogene 2). Note: BCL2L11/BIM is a BH3-only protein from the B...
متن کاملbcl-2, bax, bcl-XL, and bcl-XS expression in normal and neoplastic ovarian tissues.
The bcl-2 family of proteins includes some important regulators of apoptosis. Among these, bcl-2 and bcl-xL prevent cells from entering apoptosis, whereas bax and bcl-xS can induce cell death. Alterations in the control of this process can lead to a decrease in cell death, thus contributing to neoplastic growth. Diminished susceptibility to chemotherapy has also been attributed, in in vitro sys...
