Enhanced erythrocyte membrane exposure of phosphatidylserine following sorafenib treatment: an in vivo and in vitro study.
BACKGROUND Sorafenib (Nexavar(®)), a polytyrosine kinase inhibitor, stimulates apoptosis and is thus widely used for chemotherapy in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Hematological side effects of Nexavar(®) chemotherapy include anemia. Erythrocytes may undergo apoptosis-like suicidal death or eryptosis, which is characterized by cell shrinkage and phosphatidylserine-exposure at the cell surface....
متن کاملPiperlongumine-Induced Phosphatidylserine Translocation in the Erythrocyte Membrane
BACKGROUND Piperlongumine, a component of Piper longum fruit, is considered as a treatment for malignancy. It is effective by inducing apoptosis. Mechanisms involved in the apoptotic action of piperlongumine include oxidative stress and activation of p38 kinase. In analogy to apoptosis of nucleated cells, erythrocytes may undergo eryptosis, the suicidal death of erythrocytes characterized by ce...
متن کاملIncreased erythrocyte phosphatidylserine exposure in chronic renal failure.
The appearance of phosphatidylserine, an aminophospholipid normally confined to the inner monolayer, at the outer leaflet of red cell membrane may have several pathophysiologic implications. This study examines erythrocyte phosphatidylserine exposure in chronic renal failure (CRF) patients on conservative treatment or on dialysis, to assess possible alterations to phospholipid asymmetry in a co...
متن کاملGeldanamycin-induced phosphatidylserine translocation in the erythrocyte membrane.
BACKGROUND/AIMS Geldanamycin, a benzoquinone ansamycin antibiotic, and its analogues induce apoptosis of tumor cells and are thus considered for the treatment of cancer. Similar to apoptosis of nucleated cells, erythrocytes may enter eryptosis, the suicidal erythrocyte death characterized by cell shrinkage and by cell membrane scrambling with phosphatidylserine-exposure at the erythrocyte surfa...
متن کاملCarmustine-Induced Phosphatidylserine Translocation in the Erythrocyte Membrane
The nitrosourea alkylating agent, carmustine, is used as chemotherapeutic drug in several malignancies. The substance triggers tumor cell apoptosis. Side effects of carmustine include myelotoxicity with anemia. At least in theory, anemia could partly be due to stimulation of eryptosis, the suicidal death of erythrocytes, characterized by cell shrinkage and breakdown of phosphatidylserine asymme...
