Journal ArticleDOI
Induction of oxidative stress by anticancer drugs in the presence and absence of cells
TL;DR: Assessment methods suggest that nimustine, actinomycin D, doxorubicin, mitomycin C, mitoxantrone, carmofur, gemcitabine, mercaptopurine, camptothecin, paclitaxel, vinblastine, and vinorelbine are able to induce oxidative stress.
Journal ArticleDOI
Oxidized unsaturated fatty acids induce apoptotic cell death in cultured cells
TL;DR: Results indicated that oxidized products from polyunsaturated fatty acids induced apoptosis in cultured cells, indicating that the switch between cell survival and cell death may be regulated by the activity and/or number of oxidized Products from polyun saturated fatty acids.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: This monoclonal antibody together with an antibody specific for HSD3B6 identified three populations of ALCs based on the expression levels of these H SD3Bs, indicating whether both of them are expressed in every ALC.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antimicrobial activity and secondary structure of a novel peptide derived from ovalbumin.
TL;DR: Although ovalbumin itself does not have an antibacterial activity, the results suggest that it may supply the organisms that consume it with antimicrobial peptides, in support of their immunodefence.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interleukin-8 enhances the effect of colchicine on cell death.
TL;DR: IL-8 appeared to function as an enhancer of cell death in cancer cells treated with colchicine, suggesting a new role for IL-8 related to cell death of cancer cells.
