Sentences with phrase «with programmed cell death»

The function of these genes were involved in molecular maintenance strategies, such as DNA repair, chromosomal maintenance, immune response and programmed cell death The authors argue that the «slower rate of change in these functions is consistent with increased constraint on somatic cell maintenance as would be required in these relatively long - lived and large - bodied mammals, illustrated by the additional large and long - lived species with slower rates in these genes (e.g. double - strand break repair gene XRCC4 is also highly constrained in elephant.»

This pathway, the investigators report in Nature Medicine, is very similar to apoptosis (the controlled cell death program thought to exist only in multicellular organisms), but with subtle differences suggesting that it could be specifically targeted for anti-parasitic or - microbial drug development.

With few exceptions, these cells still die, suggesting that, in nematodes, engulfment is not necessary for most programmed deaths.

In the sensitive tumor models, the ability of anti — cytotoxic T lymphocyte — associated protein 4 or anti — programmed cell death 1 therapy to increase vessel perfusion strongly correlated with its antitumor efficacy.

PHILADELPHIA --(July 11, 2017)-- Researchers at The Wistar Institute, an international leader in biomedical research in the fields of cancer, immunology and infectious diseases, with collaborators at Indiana University Melvin and Bren Simon Cancer Center and Syndax Pharmaceuticals, Inc., (Nasdaq: SNDX) announce the results of a preclinical study demonstrating that entinostat, Syndax's oral, Class - I histone deacetylase inhibitor, enhances the antitumor effect of PD - 1 (programmed death receptor - 1) blockade through the inhibition of myeloid derived suppressor cells (MDSCs).

In this case, the trigger is a drug that interacts with the protein produced by the «suicide gene,» which metabolizes it into a form deadly to the cell, causing it to commit programmed cell death (apoptosis).

According to the researchers, «the combination of an antibody that inhibits PD - L1 and PD - 1 [programmed death 1] interactions with a targeted antiangiogenic agent might take advantage of complementary mechanisms of action to provide clinical benefit in patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma that exceeds the effects of the respective drugs alone, without increasing associated toxicity.»

PD - 1, which stands for programmed cell death 1, is the second immune checkpoint pathway currently being targeted with immunotherapies.

Biologists often view cancer primarily as a genetic program gone wrong, with mutations and epigenetic changes producing cells that don't behave the way they should: Genes associated with cell division and growth may be turned up, and genes for programmed cell death may be turned down.
