Abstract

Fas-induced apoptosis is involved in diverse liver diseases. Herein, we investigated the effect of Mir155 deletion on Fas-induced liver injury. Wild-type (WT) mice and Mir155 knockout (KO) mice were i.p. administered with the anti-Fas antibody (Jo2) to determine animal survival and the extent of liver injury. After Jo2 injection, the Mir155 KO mice exhibited prolonged survival versus the WT mice (P < 0.01). The Mir155 KO mice showed lower alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase levels, less liver tissue damage, fewer apoptotic hepatocytes, and lower liver tissue caspase 3/7, 8, and 9 activities compared with the WT mice, indicating that Mir155 deletion prevents Fas-induced hepatocyte apoptosis and liver injury. Hepatocytes isolated from Mir155 KO mice also showed resistance to Fas-induced apoptosis, in vitro. Higher protein level of myeloid cell leukemia-1 (Mcl-1) was also observed in Mir155 KO hepatocytes compared to WT hepatocytes. A miR-155 binding site was identified in the 3'-untranslated region of Mcl-1 mRNA; Mcl1 was identified as a direct target of miR-155 in hepatocytes. Consistently, pretreatment with a siRNA specific for Mcl1 reversed Mir155 deletion-mediated protection against Jo2-induced liver tissu...Continue Reading

Apoptotic Caspases

Apoptotic caspases belong to the protease enzyme family and are known to play an essential role in inflammation and programmed cell death. Here is the latest research.

BCL-2 Family Proteins

BLC-2 family proteins are a group that share the same homologous BH domain. They play many different roles including pro-survival signals, mitochondria-mediated apoptosis and removal or damaged cells. They are often regulated by phosphorylation, affecting their catalytic activity. Here is the latest research on BCL-2 family proteins.

Apoptosis

Apoptosis is a specific process that leads to programmed cell death through the activation of an evolutionary conserved intracellular pathway leading to pathognomic cellular changes distinct from cellular necrosis
