Molecular targeting therapy of cancer: drug resistance, apoptosis and survival signal.

TL;DR: In this article, a review on molecular cancer therapeutics, including molecular mechanisms and therapeutic approaches, is presented, focusing on the areas of drug resistance, apoptosis and apoptosis resistance, and survival-signaling.

Controlling Tumor Growth by Modulating Endogenous Production of Reactive Oxygen Species

TL;DR: In conclusion, antioxidant molecules may have opposite effects on tumor growth as SOD mimics can act in synergy with cytotoxic drugs to treat colon and liver cancers and reactive oxygen species can promote normal cellular proliferation and carcinogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regulation of cell apoptosis by protein kinase c δ

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a review of the PKCδ cascades and its role in cell apoptosis, including the role of protein phosphorylation on distinct tyrosine residues and its association with specific apoptotic related proteins.
Journal ArticleDOI

Protein and nucleotide damage by glyoxal and methylglyoxal in physiological systems - role in ageing and disease

TL;DR: It is appreciated that glyoxalase 1 protects against dicarbonyl modifications of the proteome, genome and lipome and represents part of the enzymatic defence against glycation.

The effect of intensive treatment of diabetes on the development and progression of long-term complications in insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus.

TL;DR: Intensive therapy effectively delays the onset and slows the progression of diabetic retinopathy, nephropathy, and neuropathy in patients with IDDM.

p53, the Cellular Gatekeeper for Growth and Division

TL;DR: The author regrets the lack of citations for many important observations mentioned in the text, but their omission is made necessary by restrictions in the preparation of review manuscripts.

The role of protein kinase C in cell surface signal transduction and tumour promotion

TL;DR: Protein kinase C probably serves as a receptor for the tumour promoters and further exploration of the roles of this enzyme may provide clues for understanding the mechanism of cell growth and differentiation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Determination of glutathione and glutathione disulfide using glutathione reductase and 2-vinylpyridine

TL;DR: It is reported here that 2-vinylpyridine is a much better reagent for the derivitization of glutathione, and it is demonstrated that the total glutATHione concentration in mouse plasma is substantially higher than generally reported and that glutathion disulfide constitutes less than 30% of the totalglutathione present.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification and inhibition of the ICE/CED-3 protease necessary for mammalian apoptosis

TL;DR: A potent peptide aldehyde inhibitor has been developed and shown to prevent apoptotic events in vitro, suggesting that apopain/CPP32 is important for the initiation of apoptotic cell death.
