PURPOSE Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha is an important cytokine associated with age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR). TNF-alpha activates the extrinsic apoptotic pathway. In many cells, nuclear transcription factor (NF)-kappaB upregulates antiapoptotic proteins and prevents TNF-alpha-mediated apoptosis. However, retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cel...
Caspase-8 has a well-defined canonical role as an apical protease of the extrinsic apoptosis pathway. Evidence is growing, however, that the protein has numerous other nonapoptotic functions. We have previously shown that caspase-8 is required for efficient adhesion-induced activation of the extracellular signal-regulated kinase (Erk)-1/2 pathway. We now show that caspase-8 is also necessary fo...
Diaphragm caspase-8 activation plays a key role in modulating sepsis-induced respiratory muscle dysfunction. It is also known that double-stranded RNA-dependent protein kinase (PKR) is a regulator of caspase-8 activation in neural tissue. We tested the hypothesis that the PKR pathway modulates sepsis-induced diaphragmatic caspase-8 activation. We first evaluated the time course of diaphragm PKR...
We identified Caspase-8 as a new substrate for Src kinase. Phosphorylation occurs on Tyr380, situated in the linker region between the large and the small subunits of human Procaspase-8, and results in downregulation of Caspase-8 proapoptotic function. Src activation triggers Caspase-8 phosphorylation on Tyr380 and impairs Fas-induced apoptosis. Accordingly, Src failed to protect Caspase-8-defe...
Autophagy and apoptosis are two evolutionarily conserved processes that regulate cell fate in response to cytotoxic stress. However, the functional relationship between these two processes remains far from clear. Here, we demonstrate an autophagy-dependent mechanism of caspase-8 activation and initiation of the apoptotic cascade in response to SKI-I, a pan-sphingosine kinase inhibitor, and bort...
Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV), a mosquito-borne flavivirus, replicates primarily at the endoplasmic reticulum and thereby triggers apoptosis of infected cells. This study investigated the hierarchical activation of the caspase network induced by JEV infection. It was found that JEV activated the initiators caspase-8 and -9, as well as effector caspase-3, in infected baby hamster kidney and ...
adenosine receptor family especially a1 type is expressed in breast cancer cells in which p53 and caspase genes are wild-type. the aim of this study was to investigate the correlation between a1 receptor and either cell apoptosis or proliferation and also to recognize the relationship between this receptor and p53 and the expression of caspases 3, 8 and 9 in mcf-7 cell line. mcf-7 cells were tr...
background: our previous studies revealed an inhibitory effect of icd-85 (venom derived peptides) on mda-mb231 and hl-60 cell lines, through induction of apoptosis. the purpose of this study was to investigate apoptosis-induced mechanism on hela and mrc-5 cells by icd-85 through activation of caspase-8. methods: cell viability, cytosolic enzyme lactate dehydrogenase (ldh) and cell morphology we...
