Ionizing radiation-induced, Bax-mediated cell death is dependent on activation of cysteine and serine proteases.

TL;DR: This study found that gamma-radiation-induced apoptosis of leukemia cells was associated with activation of multiple caspases and bax up-regulation, and inhibitors of caspase and serine proteases partially prevented cell death, suggesting a casp enzyme involvement in Bax-mediated cell death.
Journal ArticleDOI

Arsenic trioxide (As2O3) induces apoptosis through activation of Bax in hematopoietic cells

TL;DR: The data suggest that As2O3 might exert the cell killing in part by inducing Bax activation through a Bcl-2-suppressible pathway in hematopoietic cells that is caspase independent and intracellular ROS regulated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Morphine induces Beclin 1- and ATG5-dependent autophagy in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells and in the rat hippocampus.

TL;DR: It is shown that morphine induces autophagy in Neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells and in the rat hippocampus, and pharmacological approach shows that this effect appears to be mediated by PTX-sensitive G protein-coupled receptors signaling cascade.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dynamic PGAM5 multimers dephosphorylate BCL-xL or FUNDC1 to regulate mitochondrial and cellular fate.

TL;DR: PGAM5, which exists in an equilibrium between dimeric and multimeric states, dephosphorylates BCL-xL to inhibit apoptosis or FUNDC1 to activate mitofission and mitophagy in response to distinct stresses.
