A 3-hr exposure of U937 cells to hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) followed by a 6-hr posttreatment incubation in fresh culture medium promotes apoptosis or necrosis, depending on the oxidant concentration. Addition of 3-aminobenzamide (3AB) during the recovery phase prevented necrosis and caused apoptosis.
DNA fragmentation in hepatocytes occurs early after acetaminophen (AAP) overdose in mice. DNA strandbreaks can induce excessive activation of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases (PARP), which may lead to oncotic necrosis. Based on controversial findings with chemical PARP inhibitors, the role of PARP-1
OBJECTIVE
Diabetes is an important predictor of morbidity and mortality after cardiac surgery, but the reason is unclear. The aims of these studies, therefore, were to elucidate whether cell death is greater in ischemic and nonischemic diabetic human myocardium than in nondiabetic myocardium and to
The enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP-1) participates in the repair of DNA damaged by genotoxic agents such as oxygen-derived free radicals. If the allograft suffers pretransplant cold ischemia and subsequent ischemia-reperfusion injury (IR), overactivation of PARP-1 can be induced, which may
Cold ischemia time especially impacts on outcomes of expanded-criteria donor (ECD) transplantation. Ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury produces excessive poly[ADP-Ribose] Polymerase-1 (PARP-1) activation. The present study explored the hypothesis that increased tubular expression of PARP-1 contributes
OBJECTIVE
H2O2 causes DNA damage, which activates poly(adenosine diphosphate ribose) polymerase (PARP), a nuclear enzyme that uses nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) as a substrate. When DNA strand breaks are extensive, consumption of NAD by PARP can cause adenosine triphosphate depletion. The
We report a case of skin necrosis of the nasal tip after an injection of ribose cross-linked porcine atelocollagen (Evolence; Colbar Life Science Ltd, Herzliya, Israel). A 22-year-old woman had a nasal augmentation. From the glabella to the nasal tip, 10 strokes were injected using 0.6 mL of
Human promyelomonocytic leukemia cells HL-60 were treated with etoposide or cytochalasin B to induce apoptosis or necrosis, respectively. We report here that during necrosis, the DNA-repair associated nuclear enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) was degraded differently from that observed
Tumor necrosis factor-like weak inducer of apoptosis (TWEAK) and its receptor Fibroblast growth factor-inducible 14 (Fn14) are expressed in neurons. Here we demonstrate that TWEAK induces a dose-dependent increase in neuronal death and that this effect is independent of tumor necrosis factor alpha
BACKGROUND
Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) is known for its selective cytotoxic activity on tumour cells. We analysed the response of HT-29 human colon carcinoma cells to this cytokine.
METHODS
After TNF-alpha treatment, cell proliferation, cell cycle, reactive oxygen species (ROS)
The diabetes prevention paradigm envisages the application of strategies that support the maintenance of appropriate β-cell numbers. Herein we show that overexpression of CXC chemokine ligand12 (CXCL12) considerably improves the viability of isolated rat Langerhans islet cells and Rin-5F pancreatic
The fibroblast cell line L929 contains a constitutively expressed NO synthase (EC 1.14.29.-) activity, which can be increased about 10-fold by tumour-necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha). Activities of the constitutive and the inducible enzymes are tetrahydrobiopterin-independent and can be inhibited
Systemic inflammatory response to acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is detrimental to heart function. In this study, we proved that poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) activity of circulating mononuclear cell (MNC) increased significantly in post-AMI patients. MNC PARP activity was correlated
To evaluate effects of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP1) inhibitors on the production of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) by interferon-γ (IFN-γ)- and lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of horses as an in vitro model of inflammation in Treatment with cisplatin for cancer therapy has a major side effect such as nephrotoxicity; however, the role of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1) in necrosis in response to cisplatin nephrotoxicity remains to be defined. Here we report that cisplatin induces primary necrosis through PARP1
