    摘要: In accordance with the present invention, it has been discovered that the β-amyloid precursor protein (APP), and two APP-like proteins (APLP1 and APLP2) are proteolytically cleaved by caspases in the C terminus to generate an approximately 31 amino acid peptide. It has been further discovered that the resultant C-terminal peptide is a potent inducer of apoptosis. Both caspase-cleaved APP and activated caspase-9 is present in brains of Alzheimer's disease patients but not in control brains. These findings indicate that caspase cleavage of APP and APP-like proteins leads to the generation of apoptotic peptides, which may contribute to the neuronal death associated with Alzheimer's disease. Accordingly, there are provided compositions and methods for modulating apoptosis.

    摘要: Methods for controlling cell death when the cell is exposed to one or more potentially lethal cellular insults. In one method, cell death is inhibited by introducing a reactive oxygen species limiter into the cell which prevents the build up of lethal levels of reactive oxygen species when the cell is exposed to a cellular insult. In another method, cell death is promoted in cancer cells or other proliferating cells which are naturally resistant to lethal cellular insults. The method involves neutralizing reactive oxygen species limiters, such as bcl-2, which occur naturally in cancer cells and which prevent the build up of reactive oxygen species within the cancer cells when they are exposed to lethal cellular insult. Neutralizing the reactive oxygen species limiter leaves the cancer cell unable to protect itself when cellular insult causes increases in the level of reactive oxygen species. The result is an increase in cell death.
