ROS-Mediated Autophagic Death in Glioblastoma Cells Upon Treatment by Human Recombinant Arginase I (Co)- PEG5000 [HuArgI (Co)-PEG5000] حسب Abdel Khalek, Maya

"…Secondly, the results also showed in both U251 and A172 cells, an increase in the percentage of the survival of cells co-treated with HuArgI (Co)-PEG5000 and chloroquine; indicating that autophagy is contributing to cell death at late time points in GBM cells. Moreover, only U251 cells showed an overexpression in Argininosuccinate Synthetase-1 (ASS-1); the main key player in L-arginine biosynthesis, in case of arginine deprivation and the rescue was detected upon addition of exogenous L-citrulline. …"
