Cervical Cancer
Research from Hanyang University has provided new information about cervical cancer
November 13th, 2008
According to recent research published in the Journal of Cellular Physiology, "Previously, we have shown that the release of AIF from mitochondria is required for AS(2)O(3)-induced cell death in human cervical cancer cells, and that reactive oxygen species (ROS) is necessary for AIF release from mitochondria. In this study, we further investigated the role of MAPKs in ROS-mediated mitochondrial apoptotic cell death triggered by As2O3." "AS(2)O(3)-induced apoptotic cell death in HeLa cells was associated with activation and mitochondrial translocation of Bax, a marked phosphorylation of Bcl-2, reduction of Bcl-2 and Bax interaction, dissipation of mitochondrial...
