We have identified the CD95 system as a key mediator of chemotherapy-induced apoptosis in leukemia and neuroblastoma cells. Here, we report that sensitivity of various solid tumor cell lines for drug-induced cell death corresponds to activation of the CD95 system. Upon drug treatment, strong inducti

Mam33p (mitochondrial acidic matrix protein) is a soluble protein, located in mitochondria of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. It is synthesized as a precursor with an N-terminal mitochondrial targeting sequence that is processed on import. Mam33p assembles to a homo-oligomeric complex in the mitochondrial
## Abstract Multidrug resistant (MDR) tumor cells exhibit an altered pH gradient across different cell compartments, which favors a reduced intracellular accumulation of antineoplastic drugs and a decreased therapeutic effect. In our study, we have observed that the activity and expression of Na^+^
Previous results from B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukaemia suggest that expression of p27KIP1 might be important in protection from apoptosis. Given the relevance of apoptosis to the pathogenesis of Hodgkin's disease (HD), it was decided to examine the expression of p27KIP1 in relation to apoptosis
The hormone I ,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (VD) has a potential use as an anti-tumor agent, but its clinical applications are restricted by its strong calcemic activity. This has led to the development of VD analogues with selectively increased growthinhibitory activity. One of the most potent analogues
During B- and T-cell ontogeny, extensive apoptosis occurs at distinct stages of development. Agents that increase intracellular levels of cAMP induce apoptosis in thymocytes and mature B cells, prompting us to investigate the role of cAMP signaling in human CD10+ B-precursor cells. We show for the f
