In animals the process of programmed cell death, or apoptosis, is thought to be mediated by caspases, a family of cysteine proteases that cleave one another and key intracellular proteins, killing the ...
This study investigates the protective effect of small peptides from Periplaneta americana (SPPA) on hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂)–induced apoptosis of ovarian granular cells. H₂O₂ was applied to human ...
Scientists from Stanford University and the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center have discovered a class of molecules that use endogenous proteins to modulate genetic pathways involved in ...
