The role of CD95 and CD95 ligand in cancer

Role of the CD95/CD95 ligand system in glucocorticoid-induced monocyte apoptosis.

Glucocorticoids (GC) act as potent anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive agents on a variety of immune cells. However, the exact mechanisms of their action are still unknown. Recently, we demonstrated that GC induce apoptosis in human peripheral blood monocytes. In the present study, we examined the signaling pathway in GC-induced apoptosis. Monocyte apoptosis was demonstrated by annexin V st...

the analysis of the role of the speech acts theory in translating and dubbing hollywood films

از محوری ترین اثراتی که یک فیلم سینمایی ایجاد می کند دیالوگ هایی است که هنرپیش گان فیلم میگویند. به زعم یک فیلم ساز, یک شیوه متأثر نمودن مخاطب از اثر منظوره نیروی گفتارهای گوینده, مثل نیروی عاطفی, ترس آور, غم انگیز, هیجان انگیز و غیره, است. این مطالعه به بررسی این مسأله مبادرت کرده است که آیا نیروی فراگفتاری هنرپیش گان به مثابه ی اعمال گفتاری در پنج فیلم هالیوودی در نسخه های دوبله شده باز تولید...

The Regulation of CD95 Ligand Expression

Hybrid polar histone deacetylase inhibitor induces apoptosis and CD95/CD95 ligand expression in human neuroblastoma.

Inhibitors of histone deacetylase (HDAC) have been shown to have both apoptotic and differentiating effects on various tumor cells. M-carboxycinnamic acid bishydroxamide (CBHA) is a recently developed hybrid polar compound structurally related to hexamethylene bisacetamide. CBHA is a potent inhibitor of HDAC activity. CBHA induces cellular growth arrest and differentiation in model tumor system...

The regulation of CD95 ligand expression and function in CTL.

Previous studies with CTL lines and CTL hybridomas have suggested that functional CD95 (APO-1/Fas)-ligand (CD95L) expression on effector CTLs is a consequence of specific CTL-target recognition and TCR triggering of newly transcribed CD95L. Such a control on the expression of CD95L could provide a double safeguard for killing only cognate target cells. Here the regulation of CD95L expression an...
