Journal ArticleDOI
Green tea extract and (–)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate, the major tea catechin, exert oxidant but lack antioxidant activities
L. Elbling,Rosa-Maria Weiss,Olga Teufelhofer,Maria Uhl,Siegfried Knasmueller,Rolf Schulte-Hermann,Walter Berger,Michael Micksche +7 more
TL;DR: The results obtained show that both under cell‐free conditions and in the presence of cells the oxidant activities of GTE and EGCG exceeded those of spontaneously generated H2O2 (FOX assay), and suggest that detailed mechanistic studies on the effects of GTe and E GCG should be performed in vivo before excessive intake and/ or topical application of green tea products can be recommended to healthy and/or diseased persons.
Journal ArticleDOI
Resistance against novel anticancer metal compounds: differences and similarities
Petra Heffeter,Ute Jungwirth,Michael A. Jakupec,Christian G. Hartinger,Markus Galanski,Leonilla Elbling,Michael Micksche,Bernhard K. Keppler,Walter Berger +8 more
TL;DR: This review summarizes the current knowledge on drug resistance mechanisms against novel metal compounds (including platinum, arsenic, ruthenium, gallium, titanium, copper, and lanthanum drugs), and addresses the question whether there might exist a general metal-drug resistance phenotype.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spatio‐temporally precise activation of engineered receptor tyrosine kinases by light
Michael Grusch,Karin Schelch,Robert Riedler,Eva Reichhart,Christopher Differ,Walter Berger,Alvaro Ingles-Prieto,Harald Janovjak +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, light-oxygen-voltage (LOV)-sensing domains for their ability to activate RTKs by light-activated dimerization were found in aureochrome photoreceptors of stramenopiles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metal Drugs and the Anticancer Immune Response.
Bernhard Englinger,Christine Pirker,Petra Heffeter,Alessio Terenzi,Alessio Terenzi,Christian R. Kowol,Christian R. Kowol,Bernhard K. Keppler,Bernhard K. Keppler,Walter Berger +9 more
TL;DR: This review summarizes the promising but still extremely fragmentary knowledge on the interplay of metal drugs with the fidelity of anticancer immune responses but also their role in adverse effects and highlights that, at least in some cases, metal drugs can induce long-lasting antic cancer immune responses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vaults and the major vault protein: Novel roles in signal pathway regulation and immunity
TL;DR: The current knowledge on MVP and vaults is reviewed with focus on regulatory functions in intracellular signal transduction and immune defence and the definition of precise vault functions is reviewed.
