... h of reperfusion, renal function and histologic damage were examined. Myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity assay, in situ apoptosis examination, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, immunohistochemical assay, and Western blot were performed as well. Results: Butyrate pretreatment significantly reduced renal...

... genes and 9 miRNAs showed differential expression in # WNT2B cells. Among these were TNFSF10 , a key apoptosis inductor, (0.22fold, p = 0.011) and miR-1246 (36.2fold, p = 0.031). miRNA target prediction indicated TNFSF10 to be regulated by miR-1246. qRT-PCR analysis confirmed differential expression...

... inhibits cell proliferation by decreasing cell cycle and promoting apoptosis in renal cancer cell lines. Mechanistically, LDHA siRNA treatment altered the expression of cell cycle- and apoptosis-related proteins, including p21, cyclin D1, Bcl-2 and Bax. In addition, LDHA siRNA treatment leads to markedly...

... of Jurkat T lymphocytes in vitro. Methods: Exosomes were purified from human kidney adenocarcinoma ACHN cells by sequential centrifugations and ultrafiltrations, and characterized by transmission electron microscopy. The effects of exosomes on the proliferation, cytokine production and apoptosis of Jurkat T...

...In-Youb Chang; Jin-Ho Kim; Kyeong-Han Park; Sang-Pil Yoon Aim: Since DNA damage-related apoptosis is raising concerns regarding abnormal spermatogenesis, we investigated the changes in γ-H2AX during testicular germ cell apoptotic responses in the varicocele model. Materials and Methods: Varicocele...

... shown to induce apoptosis in a variety of cancer cells. We reasoned that combination treatment of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) cells with COX-2 inhibitors and anticancer agents may result in synergistic apoptosis. We examined whether the selective COX-2 inhibitor JTE-522 synergizes with anticancer agents...

...Takeshi Watanabe; Toshihiko Masago; Ikuo Miyagawa Aims: To examine botulinum toxin A (BTX-A)-induced apoptosis in the detrusor muscle in male rats. Methods: The bladder wall and prostate in adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were injected with BTX-A (10 U at each site). Tissues were harvested after 2...

... at 10 –4 M , while the 5HTR1b antagonist induced necrosis at 10 –4 M in all cell lines. Cell cycle alterations were seen in PC3 and DU145 cells under the influence of the 5HTR1a antagonist. Conclusions: Serotonin receptor antagonists and agonists as well as MLT influence viability and apoptosis of PCa...

...Atsushi Sasaki; Seiji Kudoh; Kazuyuki Mori; Nobuyoshi Takahashi; Tadashi Suzuki Because we hypothesized that cell death when bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) was instillated was correlated with apoptosis, cultured urinary bladder carcinoma cells were treated with BCG and examined whether they showed...

...Engin Kandirali; Selahittin Cayan; Abdullah Armagan; Bulent Erol; Ates Kadioglu Aims: Testicular apoptosis has been shown in human specimens, but its correlation with serum gonadotropins and testosterone levels has not been studied. The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship...

... stress as well as germ cell apoptosis indices were assessed 4 and 24 h after detorsion, respectively. Results: The apoptosis indices were significantly higher in group 2 as compared with the control group. Four hours after detorsion, the testicular level of lipid peroxidation was significantly increased...
