## Abstract Proteasome inhibitors are known to induce apoptosis in a variety of cancer cells. On the other hand, maspin, a nonβinhibitory serine protease inhibitor, is shown to sensitize cancer cells to therapeutic agents that induce apoptosis. We examined the consequence of maspin expression in pr

## Abstract Prostate cancer is associated with the inability of prostatic epithelial cells to undergo apoptosis rather than with increased cell proliferation. Prostate apoptosis responseβ4 (Parβ4) is a unique proβapoptotic molecule that is capable of selectively inducing apoptosis in cancer cells w
## Abstract Pristimerin is a natural product derived from the __Celastraceae__ and __Hippocrateaceae__ families that were used as folk medicines for antiinflammation in ancient times. Although it has been shown that pristimerin induces apoptosis in breast cancer cells, the involved mechanism of act
Chemical inhibitors of fatty acid synthase (FAS) inhibit growth and induce apoptosis in several cancer cell lines in vitro and in tumor xenografts in vivo. Recently the green tea component epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) was shown to act as a natural inhibitor of FAS in chicken liver extracts. Her
