This study describes the molecular signaling involved in the different cell death modes of triple-negative breast cancer cells induced by hexadecylphosphocholine (HePC/miltefosine), a clinically relevant anticancer alkylphosphocholine. We found that the HePC treatment triggers cell-type-dependent apoptotic and non-apoptotic cell death...
The activation of cysteine-aspartic proteases or caspases and the dynamic arrangement of cytoskeletal components are crucial during apoptosis. Here we describe the fate of Fas downstream of the FasL-induced internalization step, including formation of caspase-dependent SDS-stable Fas complexes, which is mediated by cytoskeleton integrity. We...
Phosphorylation of two tyrosines in the death domain of CD95 is a critical mechanism in determining the receptor's choices between cell death and survival signals. Recently, site-specific monoclonal antibodies against phosphorylated tyrosines of CD95 have been generated and used to successfully detect each phosphorylated death domain tyrosine...

Tyrosine phosphorylation of Fas (TNFRSF6/CD95) in its death domain turns off Fas-mediated apoptosis, turns on the pro-survival signal, and has implications in different cancers types. We show here that Fas in its pro-survival state, phosphorylated at Y291 (pY291-Fas), functionally interacts with the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), a...
Fas interaction at the plasma membrane with its lipid and protein environment plays a crucial role in the early steps of Fas signalling induced by Fas ligand binding. Particularly, Fas localisation in the raft nanodomains, ezrin-mediated interaction with the actin cytoskeleton and subsequent internalization are critical steps in Fas-mediated...
Activated T cells secrete Fas ligand (FasL)-containing vesicles (secreted vesicles) that induce death of target cells. We provide evidence that secreted vesicles from culture supernatants (Csup) of various origins are able to generate both Fas-dependent apoptotic and Fas-independent, nonapoptotic cell death. In the absence of Fas, the...
Fas and PI3K/Akt signaling pathways pivotally impact on cancer cell death and survival respectively and are considered as promising targets for innovative anticancer therapies. To better characterize the combination effect of PI3K/Akt inhibitors and Fas agonists and understand the profile of the interaction between PI3K/Akt and Fas signaling,...

Abstract Recombinant MrNV capsid protein has been shown to effectively deliver plasmid DNA and dsRNA into Sf9 insect cells and shrimp tissues. To extend its application to cancer cell-targeting drug delivery, we created three different types of chimeric MrNV virus-like particles (VLPs) (R-MrNV, I-MrNV, and E-MrNV) that have specificity toward...
Localization of the death receptor Fas to specialized membrane microdomains is crucial to Fas-mediated cell death signaling. Here, we report that the post-translational modification of Fas by palmitoylation at the membrane proximal cysteine residue in the cytoplasmic region is the targeting signal for Fas localization to lipid rafts, as...

Gangliosides have been involved in multiple cellular processes such as growth, differentiation and adhesion, and more recently as regulators of cell death signaling pathways. Some of these molecules can be considered as tumor-associated antigens, in particular, N-glycolyl sialic acid-containing gangliosides, which are promising candidates for...
Disruption of epithelial polarity is a key event in the acquisition of neoplastic growth. JNK signalling is known to play an important part in driving the malignant progression of many epithelial tumours, although the link between loss of polarity and JNK signalling remains elusive. In a Drosophila genome-wide genetic screen designed to...

Demonstrations of both pro-apoptotic and pro-survival abilities of Fas (TNFRSF6/CD95/APO-1) have led to a shift from the exclusive ``Fas apoptosis'' to ``Fas multisignals'' paradigm and the acceptance that Fas-related therapies face a major challenge, as it remains unclear what determines the mode of Fas signaling. Through protein evolution...
