neurotoxicity following cerebral ischemia-reperfusion. Accumulation of ROS, particularly superoxide anion (O ) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) causes damage to membrane phospholipids, proteins and DNA. Under normal circumstances, these oxidant species can be effectively scavenged by antioxidant enzymes, namely superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase, and glutathione peroxidase (GPX). In mammalian SOD...

P 53 ( Protein 53 kDa )

A single amino acid change (Asp 53 --> Ala53) converts Survivin from anti-apoptotic to pro-apoptotic.

Survivin is a member of the inhibitor of apoptosis protein (IAP) family that has been implicated in both apoptosis inhibition and cell cycle control. Recently, Survivin has attracted growing attention because of its tumor-specific expression and potential applications in tumor therapy. However, its inhibitory mechanism and subcellular localization remain controversial. Here, we report a novel S...
