Extrusion of apoptotic cells from epithelial tissues requires orchestrated morphological rearrangements of the apoptotic cell and its neighbors. However, the connections between the apoptotic cascade and events leading to extrusion are not fully understood. Here, we characterize an apoptotic extrusion
Chaetocin, a natural product extracted from Chaetomium species, possesses anticancer effects in several kinds of tumors. However, it remains unclear whether the potential indication for chaetocin could also include human gastric cancer. We found here that chaetocin induced caspase-dependent and
Although there are few studies suggested PCP exposure induced developmental and behavioral disorders, however, the occurrence of neurotoxicity and PCP has not been firmly established. Tetrachlorobenzoquinone (TCBQ) is a reactive metabolite of environmental pollutant pentachlorophenol (PCP). To the best of

Mitochondrial demise is a key feature of progressive neuronal death contributing to acute and chronic neurological disorders. Recent studies identified a pivotal role for the BH3-only protein B-cell lymphoma-2 interacting domain death antagonist (Bid) for such mitochondrial damage and delayed

Exposure to ethanol (EtOH) during central nervous system (CNS) development can lead to a wide array of neuroanatomical, behavioral, and cognitive abnormalities, broadly subsumed under the fetal alcohol spectrum disorder classification. One mode of EtOH-induced interference in the normal developmental
