1 Signaling and function of caspase and c-jun N-terminal kinase in cisplatin-induced apoptosis. Cisplatin mitogen-activated protein kinase 8 Homo sapiens
2 Treatment of Jurkat T-cells with cisplatin induced cell death with DNA fragmentation and activation of caspase and JNK. Cisplatin mitogen-activated protein kinase 8 Homo sapiens
3 On the other hand, cisplatin induced the JNK activation in both the wild-type and JB-6 cells, and the caspase-3 inhibitor Z-DEVD-fmk did not inhibit this activation. Cisplatin mitogen-activated protein kinase 8 Homo sapiens
4 The JNK overexpression resulted in a higher JNK activity, AP-1 DNA binding activity, and metallothionein expression than the empty vector-transfected cells following cisplatin treatment. Cisplatin mitogen-activated protein kinase 8 Homo sapiens
5 These data suggest that the cisplatin-induced apoptotic signal is initiated by the caspase-8-independent cytochrome c release, and the JNK activation protects cells from cisplatin-induced apoptosis via the metallothionein expression. Cisplatin mitogen-activated protein kinase 8 Homo sapiens
