The present study demonstrates that both oligomeric metalloendopeptidase meprin A purified from kidney cortex and recombinant meprin alpha are capable of generating biologically active IL-1beta from its precursor pro-IL-1beta. Amino-acid sequencing a

Autophagy has emerged as another major “programmed” mechanism to control life and death much like “programmed cell death” is for apoptosis in eukaryotes. We examined the expression of autophagic proteins and formation of autophagosomes during

Tissue factor (TF), apart from its established role in hemostasis, has been implicated in promoting angiogenesis and metastasis in a wide array of tumors including prostate cancer. Expression of TF was evaluated in freshly-resected prostate specimens

This study examined the role of cisplatin-induced p53 activation in regulation of caspases and cellular injury during cisplatin nephrotoxicity. The executioner caspase-6 and -7 but not caspase-3 were identified as transcriptional targets of p53 in ci

Mcl-1 is an antiapoptotic member of the Bcl-2 family that plays an important role in cell survival. We demonstrate that proteasome-dependent regulation of Mcl-1 plays a critical role in renal tubular epithelial cell injury from cisplatin. Protein lev

BACKGROUND Aberrant expression of protease-activated receptors (PARs) has been associated with increased angiogenesis, tumor growth, and metastasis of various cancers. We assessed the status of PAR1 expression in prostate cancer. METHODS The study co

We demonstrate the role of p53-mediated caspase-2 activation in the mitochondrial release of apoptosis-inducing factor (AIF) in cisplatin-treated renal tubular epithelial cells. Gene silencing of AIF with its small interfering RNA (siRNA) suppressed

Purpose: The vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) family plays a critical role in tumor angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis. We characterized, at the mRNA and protein levels, the expression of VEGF-A and VEGF-D and their cognate receptors, VEGFR-

Objectives: To determine cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) expression patterns in primary prostate tissue of patients undergoing androgen deprivation therapy and in patients with early stage disease. Methods: Gene and protein expression analysis were performe

Anthracyclines are known for their endothelial toxicity. Newer derivatives may have fewer toxic effects on endothelium. The authors therefore evaluated the effects of doxorubicin, doxorubicin analogs (daunorubicin, idarubicin), and pegylated liposoma
