Apoptosis
Research on apoptosis detailed by scientists at Virginia Commonwealth University
Published in Health Risk Factor Week, April 8th, 2008
According to recent research from the United States, "Apoptosis is a major mechanism of gastric cell death induced by deoxycholate (DC) and aspirin (ASA), and the caspase cascade and protein kinase C (PKC) signaling play key roles in this process. The transcription factor kappa B (NF-kappa B) has been shown to modulate apoptosis by regulating the transcription of numerous pro- and anti-apoptotic genes."
"The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of DC and ASA on NF-kappa B signaling, and determine its role in programmed cell death in a human gastric carcinoma cell line. Cells were incubated with DC in the presence or absence of ASA or proteasome inhibitors...
