Hormonal control of programmed cell death/apoptosis.
Apoptosis or programmed cell death is a physiological form of cell death that occurs in embryonic development and during involution of organs. It is characterized by distinct biochemical and morphological changes such as DNA fragmentation, plasma membrane blebbing and cell volume shrinkage. Many hormones, cytokines and growth factors are known to act as general and/or tissue-specific survival f...
متن کاملHormonal regulation of secondary cell wall formation.
Secondary cell walls (SCWs) have critical functional importance but also constitute a high proportion of the plant biomass and have high application potential. This is true mainly for the lignocellulosic constituents of the SCWs in xylem vessels and fibres, which form a structured layer between the plasma membrane and the primary cell wall (PCW). Specific patterning of the SCW thickenings contr...
متن کاملAn Effective Concentration of 5-Aza-CdR to Induce Cell Death and Apoptosis in Human Pancreatic Cancer Cell Line through Reactivating RASSF1A and Up-Regulation of Bax Genes
Background: Promoter hyper-methylation of tumor suppressor genes is a common event that occurs in cancer. As methylation is a reversible modification, agents capable of reversing an abnormal methylation status should help to combat cancer. 5-Aza-CdR is a DNA methyl-transferase inhibitor. The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of 5-Aza-CdR on the proliferation of human pancreatic cancer ...
متن کاملRegulation of mast cell survival and apoptosis.
One key characteristic of certain mast cell populations is their longevity. Mast cell survival can also be promoted by Fc-receptor activation. Regulation of cell survival and apoptosis is regulated by the Bcl-2 family that consists of pro- and anti-apoptotic proteins. Depending on their relative cellular expression levels, the cells are either rescued or destined for apoptosis. To determine the...
متن کاملEvaluating the physiological and hormonal responses of caper plant (Capparis spinosa) subjected to drought and salinity
In order to investigate the effect of drought and salinity stress on caper plant (Capparis spinosa), a factorial experiment including two factors consisting of drought and salinity levels based on randomized complete block design (RCBD) with five blocks were carried out at College of Agriculture, Shiraz University, Shiraz, Iran. After pretreatment, seeds were germinated in petri dishes and then...
