Cisplatin induces apoptosis in a variety of cell types. However, the signaling pathway of cisplatin-induced apoptosis in renal epithelial cells is poorly understood. The present study was undertaken to determine the role of the extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) in cisplatin-induced apoptos

## Abstract Different rigidities of adhesive collagen substrate affect cellular functions with unclear mechanisms. Here, we cultured a renal epithelial cell line (LLCβPK1) and a tumor cell line (HeLa) on substrates of different rigidities and compared the cell typeβspecific responses. The culture d
Urokinase plasminogen activator (u-PA) and its fast acting type-1 inhibitor (PAI-1) localize to cellular focal adhesive structures and the ajoining proximal undersurface region, respectively (Kutz et al., J. Cell. Physiol. 176:8-18, 1997). PAI-1 may function in this locale to modulate pericellular p
## Abstract Carbon nanotubes (CNTs), the most promising material with unique characteristics, find its application in different fields ranging from composite materials to medicine and from electronics to energy storage. However, little is known about the mechanism behind the interaction of these pa
