Designed tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand variants initiating apoptosis exclusively via the DR5 receptor.
Tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) is a potential anticancer drug that selectively induces apoptosis in a variety of cancer cells by interacting with death receptors DR4 and DR5. TRAIL can also bind to decoy receptors (DcR1, DcR2, and osteoprotegerin receptor) that cannot induce apoptosis. The occurrence of DR5-responsive tumor cells indicates that a DR5 receptor-sp...
متن کاملTumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand inhibits proliferation and induces apoptosis of prostate and bladder cancer cells
The effect of recombinant and purified tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) on the proliferation and apoptosis of PC-3 prostate cancer cells and the 5637 bladder cancer cells were investigated. We used a cell proliferation assay and flow cytometry to measure the proliferation and apoptosis of cancer cells after 24-h incubation of PC-3 and 5637 cells with different con...
متن کاملHuman Dendritic Cells Mediate Cellular Apoptosis via Tumor Necrosis Factor–Related Apoptosis-Inducing Ligand (Trail)
TRAIL (TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand) is a member of the TNF family that induces apoptosis in a variety of cancer cells. In this study, we demonstrate that human CD11c(+) blood dendritic cells (DCs) express TRAIL after stimulation with either interferon (IFN)-gamma or -alpha and acquire the ability to kill TRAIL-sensitive tumor cell targets but not TRAIL-resistant tumor cells or normal ...
متن کاملTunicamycin enhances tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand-induced apoptosis in human prostate cancer cells.
Death receptor 5 (DR5/TRAIL-R2) is an apoptosis-inducing membrane receptor for tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL/Apo2L). In this study, we showed that tunicamycin, a naturally occurring antibiotic, is a potent enhancer of TRAIL-induced apoptosis through up-regulation of DR5 expression. Tunicamycin significantly sensitized PC-3, androgen-independent human prostate ca...
متن کاملRoscovitine sensitizes leukemia and lymphoma cells to tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand-induced apoptosis.
Tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) is a death ligand with selective antitumor activity. However, many primary tumors are TRAIL resistant. Previous studies reported that roscovitine, a cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor, sensitized various solid cancer cells to TRAIL. We show that roscovitine and TRAIL demonstrate synergistic cytotoxicity in hematologic malignant cell...
