Stress granules counteract senescence by sequestration of PAI‐1 by Amr Omer (18629374)

“…PAI‐1 localization to SGs increases the translocation of cyclin D1 to the nucleus, promotes RB phosphorylation, and maintains a proliferative, non‐senescent state. Together, our data indicate that SGs may be targets of intervention to modulate senescence in order to impair or prevent its deleterious effects.…”

Cytotoxicity of [HuArgI (co)-PEG5000]-induced arginine deprivation to ovarian Cancer cells is autophagy dependent by Nasreddine, Ghenwa

“…Ovarian cancer cell lines were negative for annexinV staining while showing loss of membrane integrity and absence of caspase activation, indicating caspase-independent, non-apoptotic cell death. [HuArgI (Co)-PEG5000]-induced arginine deprivation led to extensive and prolonged activation of autophagy, which proved to be deleterious to cell survival since its inhibition led to a significant decrease in cytotoxicity. …”
