  • Of note, the effects of Ang II in facilitating cell apoptosis, increasing matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2 and MMP-9, reducing tissue inhibitor of MMP (TIMP)-1, and promoting switching from the contractile to synthetic phenotype in cultured VSMCs were enhanced by overexpression of PVT1 but attenuated by knockdown of PVT1 .

  • Quantification of cell-cycle state at a single-cell level is essential to understand fundamental three-dimensional (3D) biological processes such as tissue development and cancer. (nature.com)
  • Among lung cancers, nonsmall cell lung carcinomas (NSCLC) account for approximately 80% of lung cancer cases [ 1 ]. (hindawi.com)
  • In addition, there is no report on the antitumor effects of terpinen-4-ol against human nonsmall cell lung cancer cells. (hindawi.com)
  • We investigated the new phosphorylation site for IκBα and identified its biological function in breast cancer cells. (researchsquare.com)
  • 205 or PC-3 cancer cells suspended in buffer or spiked in peripheral human blood were subjected to shear flow in a cone-and-plate viscometer. (aiche.org)
  • Exposure of functionalized ES/TRAIL leukocytes into cancer cell-spiked blood successfully targeted and killed cancer cells under shear flow, compared to controls (Fig. 1B). (aiche.org)
  • The fact that PKCd exerts differential responses depending on the cell context not only highlights the necessity to carefully understand the signaling events controlled by this PKC in each cell type but also suggests that we should be cautious in considering this kinase a target for cancer therapy.

  • In vitro, VEGF has been shown to stimulate endothelial cell mitogenesis and cell migration. (prospecbio.com)
  • Obinutuzumab is a CD20-directed cytolytic antibody, which, upon binding to CD20, mediates B-cell lysis. (medscape.com)
  • Our results suggest that the NLRP3/ASC/caspase-1 axis participates in the regulation of pro-imflammatory cytokine secretion in RAW264.7 cells, particularly the generation of IL-1β and IL-18. (spandidos-publications.com)
  • The disease is characterized by up-regulation of growth factors (TGF-β 1 , PDGF-A and B). Apoptosis was detected in the intimal layer of affected aortas. (biomedcentral.com)
