Expression of CD226 antagonizes apoptotic cell death in murine thymocytes.
CD226 is known to be expressed on many types of peripheral lymphoid cells and involved in T cell differentiation, activation, and cytotoxicity. In this study, we report that CD226 is also expressed on mouse thymocytes at varying developmental stages, and its expression is associated with resistance of thymocytes to apoptosis. The levels of CD226 expression appeared to be closely coupled with th...
متن کاملGarlic Extract Can Induce Apoptotic Cell Death in The Human Colon Adenocarcinoma HT29 Cell Line
Background and Objective: Garlic has been known worldwide as a dietary constituent with many pharmacological effects. The present in vitro study was designed to investigate the putative anticancer effect of garlic extract on cancer cells, and if this effect was through apoptosis induction. Material and Methods: Human colon adenocarcinoma cells HT29 were treated with different doses (1, 5 a...
متن کاملEnhancement of activation-induced cell death by fibronectin in murine CD4+ CD8+ thymocytes.
Development of T cells in the thymus is achieved through the interactions of thymocytes with their microenvironments. This study focused on the function of fibronectin (FN), a major extracellular matrix molecule in the thymus, in the cell death induced by activation via the T-cell antigen receptor. FN alone did not increase cell death in murine thymocytes above the baseline level, but it signif...
متن کاملApoptotic Cell Death in Neuroblastoma
Neuroblastoma (NB) is one of the most common malignant solid tumors in childhood, which derives from the sympathoadrenal lineage of the neural crest and exhibits extremely heterogeneous biological and clinical behaviors. The infant patients frequently undergo spontaneous regression even with metastatic disease, whereas the patients of more than one year of age who suffer from disseminated disea...
متن کاملBiochemistry of apoptotic cell death.
Apoptosis is a physiological cell suicide program that is critical for the development and maintenance of healthy tissues. Regulation of programmed cell death allows the organism to control the cell number and the tissue size, and to protect itself from rogue cells that threaten homeostasis. The changed activity of numerous genes influences switching of cells to a self-destruction program. Apop...
