Caspase-8 is the molecular switch for apoptosis, necroptosis and pyroptosis

TL;DR: It is shown that the expression of enzymatically inactive CASP8(C362S) causes embryonic lethality in mice by inducing necroptosis and pyroptosis, and prevents tissue damage during embryonic development and adulthood in mice.
Journal ArticleDOI

Embelin inhibits endothelial mitochondrial respiration and impairs neoangiogenesis during tumor growth and wound healing

TL;DR: It is shown that proliferating ECs increasingly depend on mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation (OxPhos) for their increased energy demand, and the benzoquinone embelin is a weak mitochondrial uncoupler that prevents neoangiogenesis during tumor growth and wound healing by exhausting the low respiratory reserve of proliferatingECs without adversely affecting quiescent ECs.
Journal ArticleDOI

HER2/neu (ERBB2) expression and gene amplification correlates with better survival in esophageal adenocarcinoma.

TL;DR: A positive prognostic impact of HER2 overexpression was demonstrated in a large cohort of EAC, contrary to other solid malignancies including gastric cancer and breast cancer, but consistent to the results of a large study on EAC from 2012.
