SYNERGISTIC EFFECT OF SUBTOXIC-DOSE CISPLATIN AND TRAIL TO MEDIATE APOPTOSIS BY DOWN-REGULATING DECOY RECEPTOR 2 AND UP-REGULATING CASPASE-8, CASPASE-9 AND BAX EXPRESSION ON NCI-H460 AND A549 CELLS

Synergistic Effect of Subtoxic-dose Cisplatin and TRAIL to Mediate Apoptosis by Down-regulating Decoy Receptor 2 and Up-regulating Caspase-8, Caspase-9 and Bax Expression on NCI-H460 and A549 Cells

Objective(s): Although tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) can selectively induce apoptosis in tumor cells, more than half of tumors including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) exhibit TRAIL-resistance.The purpose of this study was to determine whether subtoxic-dose cisplatin and TRAIL could synergistically enhance Carr

T Cell-Intrinsic IRF5 Regulates T Cell Signaling, Migration, and Differentiation and Promotes Intestinal Inflammation

Summary: IRF5 polymorphisms are associated with multiple immune-mediated diseases, including ulcerative colitis.IRF5 contributions are attributed to its role in myeloid lineages.How T cell-intrinsic IRF5 contributes to inflammatory outcomes is not well understood.We identify a previously undefined key role for T cell-intrinsic IRF5.In mice, IRF5 in
