Methylglyoxal (MG) is a physiological metabolite, but it is known to be toxic, inducing stress in cells and causing apoptosis. This study examines molecular mechanisms in the MG-induced signal transduction leading to apoptosis, focusing particularly on the role of JNK activation. We first confirmed
## Abstract Cardiotoxin III (CTX III), a basic polypeptide with 60 amino acid residues isolated from __Naja naja atra__ venom, has been reported to have anticancer activity. The molecular effects of CTX III on HLβ60 cells were dissected in the present study. We found that the antiproliferative acti
## Abstract Molecular mechanisms underlying chemotherapeutic agentβinduced apoptosis in sarcoma cells are not well known. Induction of apoptosis is regulated by several components including mitogenβactivated protein kinases (MAPKs) comprising ERK, p38MAPKs, and cβJun Nβterminal kinase (JNK). In the
