Lack of apoptotic protease activating factor-1 expression and resistance to hypoxia-induced apoptosis in cervical cancer.
PURPOSE Clinical observations suggest that intratumoral hypoxia increases the aggressiveness of tumors through clonal selection of cancer cells that have lost their apoptotic potential. The aim of this study, therefore, was to investigate the expression of the proapoptotic protein apoptotic protease activating factor-1 (Apaf-1) in cervical cancers and to analyze its relation to intratumoral hyp...
متن کاملApoptotic protease-activating factor 1 (Apaf-1) as a liable gene for spontaneous mutations in vitro
The apoptotic protease-activating factor 1 (Apaf-1) receives the death signal in the intrinsic ormitochondrial pathway of apoptosis. Upon the releasing of cytochrome c from theintermembrane space of mitochondria and binding to Apaf-1 molecules, a heptamericapoptosome complex is formed and triggers the downstream cascade of caspases. Here, for thefirst time we present spontaneous mutations and r...
متن کاملAPAF 1 ( Apoptotic protease activating factor 1 )
Five isoforms of APAF1 cDNA have been identified in Homo sapiens: The original APAF1 (also called Apaf-1S) is 3585 bp long (it contains 12 WD40 repeats); The APAF1-1M isoform (3618 bp) contains an insertion of 33 nt after position 295 of the first published sequence (11 aa insertion GKDSVSGITSY between aa 98 and 99; it also contains 12 WD40 repeats); The APAF1XS isoform (3516 bp) contains the s...

متن کاملExpression and Clinical Significance of Activating Transcription Factor 3 in Human Breast Cancer
Objective(s): Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer among women worldwide. This study investigated the expression and clinical significance of activating transcription factor 3 (ATF3) in human breast cancer and its relationship with the clinical outcome of breast cancer. Materials and Methods : ATF3 expressions were detected in 114 primary breast cancer tissues and ...
