Journal ArticleDOI

Ecto-ATPase activity in cytolytic T-lymphocytes. Protection from the cytolytic effects of extracellular ATP.

TL;DR: Inactivation of CTL ecto-ATPase by pretreatment with FSBA makes CTL susceptible to lytic effects of extracellular ATP, as was hypothesized for the functional role of this enzyme in CTL.
Journal ArticleDOI

Extracellular ATP in T-lymphocyte activation: possible role in effector functions.

TL;DR: Cloned helper T lymphocytes also accumulate ATPo after incubation with anti-TCR mAb or Con A, suggesting the possibility that ATPo, which acts in concert with ectoprotein kinases and/or purinergic receptors, may be of general use as a messenger in cellular interactions of T lymphocyte.
Journal ArticleDOI

Toll-like receptor 3 triggers apoptosis of human prostate cancer cells through a PKC-α-dependent mechanism

TL;DR: It is shown that a novel interferon-independent pathway involving protein kinase C (PKC)-alpha activation, upstream of p38 and c-jun N-terminal kinase, is responsible for poly (I:C) pro-apoptotic effects on LNCaP cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Multifaceted Roles of GSK-3 in Cancer and Autophagy-Related Diseases

TL;DR: The studies summarized here underline the GSK-3 multifaceted role and indicate such kinase as a molecular target in different pathologies, including diseases associated with autophagy dysregulation.
Journal ArticleDOI

VEGF-induced neoangiogenesis is mediated by NAADP and two-pore channel-2-dependent Ca2+ signaling

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that a VEGFR2/NAADP/TPC2/Ca2+ signaling pathway is critical for VEGF-induced angiogenesis in vitro and in vivo, and that the angiogenic response can be abolished, in cultured cells and in vitro, by inhibiting components of this signaling cascade.
