Sphingosine 22-33 caspase 8 Homo sapiens 71-88 19276187-0 2009 Activation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase is required for death receptor-independent caspase-8 activation and cell death in response to sphingosine. Sphingosine 145-156 caspase 8 Homo sapiens 94-103 19276187-3 2009 In this study, we show that sphingosine induces death receptor-independent caspase-8 activation and apoptotic cell death via p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) activation and that suppression of the MAPK/extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) kinase/ERK pathway by protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) is required for p38 MAPK activation. Sphingosine 28-39 caspase 8 Homo sapiens 75-84 19276187-5 2009 Inhibition of p38 MAPK led to the marked suppression of death receptor-independent caspase-8 activation and subsequent cell death induced by sphingosine. Sphingosine 141-152 caspase 8 Homo sapiens 83-92 9541007-8 1998 Z-IETD-FMK, which inhibits caspase 8/FLICE also inhibited Sph/DMS induced apoptosis with no inhibition of apoptosis induced by either ceramide. Sphingosine 58-61 caspase 8 Homo sapiens 27-36 9541007-8 1998 Z-IETD-FMK, which inhibits caspase 8/FLICE also inhibited Sph/DMS induced apoptosis with no inhibition of apoptosis induced by either ceramide. Sphingosine 58-61 caspase 8 Homo sapiens 37-42 10747891-4 2000 Exogenous sphingosine, as well as cell-permeable C(2)-ceramide, induced cytochrome c release from mitochondria in a caspase-independent fashion leading to activation of caspase-9 and executioner caspases and, surprisingly, activation of the initiator caspase-8 and processing of its substrate Bid. Sphingosine 10-21 caspase 8 Homo sapiens 251-260
