4-Hydroxynonenal (HNE) is one of the most abundant and reactive aldehydes of lipid peroxidation products and exerts various effects on intracellular and extracellular signalling cascades. We have previously shown that HNE at low concentrations could be considered as an important

Activation of poly(ADP-ribose) synthetase (PARS, also termed polyADP-ribose polymerase or PARP) has been proposed as a major mechanism contributing to beta-cell destruction in type I diabetes. In the present study, we have investigated the role of PARS in mediating the

Peroxynitrite triggers DNA single-strand breakage, which activates the nuclear enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) synthetase (PARS). Activation of PARS depletes its substrate, NAD+, slowing the rate of glycolysis, electron transport, and ATP formation, resulting in cell necrosis. Here, we demonstrate that inhibition of

The cellular pharmacologic actions, as measured by cell killing, of INH2BP, DIME and INO2BA (+ BSO) were determined in three types of cancer cells and compared to their action on quiescent confluent human foreskin fibroblast (HSF) and pre-confluent growing fibroblasts.
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) plays a crucial role in DNA repair. Modulation of its activity by stimulation or inhibition is considered as a potentially important strategy in clinical practice, especially to sensitize tumor cells to chemo- and radiotherapy through inhibition of
