Apoptosis: Bcl-2-related proteins get connected
نویسنده
چکیده
Bcl-2 family proteins are key intracellular regulators of programmed cell death. Several recent discoveries demonstrate how these proteins interact with the molecular machinery that controls and executes the cell-death programme, and how they can themselves be regulated by extracellular survival signals.

متن کاملEffects of Usnic Acid on Apoptosis and Expression of Bax and Bcl-2 Proteins in Hippocampal CA1 Neurons Following Cerebral Ischemia-Reperfusion
Introduction: Cerebral ischemia-reperfusion causes complex pathological mechanisms that lead to tissue damage, such as neuronal apoptosis. Usnic acid is a secondary metabolite of lichen and has various biological properties including antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities. This study aimed to investigate the neuroprotective effects of usnic acid on apoptotic cell death and apoptotic-relat...
متن کاملThe receptive endometrium is characterized by apoptosis in the glands.
Apoptosis in the human endometrium up to now has been detected during the mid to late luteal phase and therefore connected to the onset of the menstrual shedding. However, there is increasing evidence that regulated apoptosis may be important during decidualization and implantation. To investigate a possible role for apoptosis in the human endometrium and its regulation, we correlated the immun...

Background and Objectives: Apoptosis of eosinophils is of significant value in assessing the airway inflammation in patients with asthma. Our purpose was to investigate the degree of expression of the Bcl-2 protein in sputum eosinophils during acute asthma exacerbation and its relationship with exacerbation severity.

Background and aim: Cytokines are a large family of protein messengers. These proteins induce various cellular responses. Janus kinases (JAKs) are mediators of cytokine, activated JAKs phosphorylate signal transducers, and activators of transcription (STAT) proteins that regulate cell differentiation, proliferation, and apoptosis. Aberrant JAK/STAT signaling is involved in the oncogenesis of se...
