Journal ArticleDOI

Chemotherapy induces ATP release from tumor cells.

TL;DR: It is described that multiple distinct anticancer drugs reduce the intracellular concentration of ATP before and during the manifestation of apoptotic characteristics such as the dissipation of the mitochondrial transmembrane potential and the exposure of phosphatidylserine residues on the plasma membrane.
Journal ArticleDOI

Vital functions for lethal caspases

TL;DR: The nonapoptotic functions of caspases implicate that cells can restrict the proteolytic activity of these enzymes to selected substrates, which is suspected to play a role in the pathophysiology of several human diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Permeabilization of the mitochondrial inner membrane during apoptosis: impact of the adenine nucleotide translocator

TL;DR: It is discussed that ANT has two opposite functions, on the one hand, ANT is a vital, specific antiporter which accounts for the exchange of ATP and ADP on IM, and on the other hand ANT can form a non-specific pore.
Journal ArticleDOI

Activating autophagy to potentiate immunogenic chemotherapy and radiation therapy

TL;DR: Accumulating preclinical and clinical evidence is discussed in support of the all-too-often dismissed possibility that activating autophagy might be a relevant clinical objective that enables an increase in the effectiveness of immunogenic chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy.
Journal Article

Mitochondrial permeability transition triggers lymphocyte apoptosis.

TL;DR: Data from this work are compatible with the hypotheses that mitochondrial PT is self-sufficient to trigger apoptosis and that Bcl-2 may directly regulate PT.
