APAF1 Cancer Research Results

APAF1, Apoptotic Protease Activating Factor 1: Click to Expand ⟱
Source:
Type: protein
APAF1 (Apoptotic Protease Activating Factor 1) is a protein that plays a crucial role in the regulation of apoptosis, or programmed cell death. APAF1 is a key component of the intrinsic pathway of apoptosis, which is activated in response to cellular stress or damage.
Downregulated in: breast, lung, prostate, colon (with poor prognosis)
APAF1 activators have been developed and are being tested in preclinical and clinical studies.

6553- BSB,    Pharmacological and biological effects of alpha-bisabolol: An updated review of the molecular mechanisms
- Review, Nor, NA
*ROS↓, Various therapeutic and biological properties of α-bisabolol in preventing oxidative stress, inflammatory disorders, infections, neurodegenerative diseases, cancers, and metabolic disorders have been reported.
*Inflam↓,
*Inf↓,
*neuroP↑,
*RNS↓, The antioxidant mechanism of α-bisabolol is mainly associated with the reduction of ROS/RNS, MDA, and GSH depletion, MPO activity, and augmentation of SOD and CAT.
*MDA↓,
*GSH↑,
*MPO↓,
*SOD↑,
*Catalase↑,
*Bcl-2↑, upregulating the expression of bcl-2 and suppression of bax, P53, APAF-1, caspase-3, and caspase-9 activity indicates the anti-apoptotic effects of α- bisabolol.
*BAX↓,
*P53↓,
*APAF1↓,
*Casp3↓,
*Casp9↓,
*TNF-α↓, It possesses anti-inflammatory effects via reduction of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, iNOS, and COX-2 and suppresses the activation of ERK1/2, JNK, NF-κB, and p38.
*IL1β↓,
*IL6↓,
*iNOS↓,
*COX2↓,
*ERK↓,
*JNK↓,
*NF-kB↓,
*p38↓,
*cognitive↑, improves cognitive function via downregulation of bax, cleaved caspases-3 and 9 levels, β-secretase, cholinesterase activities, and upregulation of bcl-2 levels.
*BChE↓,

3263- Lyco,    Lycopene protects against myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury by inhibiting mitochondrial permeability transition pore opening
- in-vitro, Nor, H9c2 - in-vitro, Stroke, NA
*Apoptosis↓, LP pretreatment significantly increased cell viability, reduced myocardial infarct size and decreased the apoptosis rate.
*MMP↑, decrease of ΔΨm were attenuated by LP and the expressions of cytochrome c, APAF-1, cleaved caspase-9 and cleaved caspase-3 were also decreased by LP
*Cyt‑c↓,
*APAF1↓,
*cl‑Casp9↓,
*cl‑Casp3↓,
*Bcl-2↑, LP treatment markedly increased Bcl-2 expression, decreased Bax expression and the Bax/Bcl-2 ratio.
*BAX↓,
cardioP↑, myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI). LP protects against MIRI by inhibiting MPTP opening, partly through the modulation of Bax and Bcl-2.
