Anticancer drugs kill susceptible cells through induction of apoptosis. Alterations of apoptotic pathways in drug-resistant tumor cells leading to apoptosis deficiency might represent a potent mechanism conferring drug resistance. We have assessed the effect of etoposide and cisplatin on the

The premature abscission of flowers and fruits limits crop yield under environmental stress. Drought-induced flower drop in tomato plants was found to be regulated by phytosulfokine (PSK), a peptide hormone previously known for its growth-promoting and immune-modulating activities. PSK formation

Aggregations of proteins are in many cases associated with neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's (AD). Small compounds capable of inhibiting protein aggregation are expected to be useful for not only in the treatment of disease but also in probing the

Crevicular fluid samples were collected from 20 gingivitis and periodontitis patients using filter paper strips; these were then eluted into buffer. Portions of each sample were combined and the activities of this pooled eluate against different peptidyl derivatives of 7-amino-4-trifluoromethyl

The cysteine proteinases cathepsins B and L have collagenolytic potential and so have been implicated in connective-tissue breakdown in chronic periodontitis. Synthetic peptide substrates are often used to detect proteolytic enzymes. The action of homogenates of inflamed gingiva tissue against
