Application

Application Comment Organism
medicine results identify the lysosome as a novel target of polyphenol resveratrol activity and demonstrate a hierarchy of the proteolytic pathways involved in its cytotoxic mechanism in which the lysosomal cathepsin D acts upstream of the cytosolic caspase activation. Any metabolic, pharmacologic or genetic conditions affecting cathepsin D expression and/or activity can reflect on the sensitivity of cancer cells to polyphenol resveratrol Homo sapiens

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
additional information inhibition of cathepsin D by RNA interference precludes Bax oligomerization, permeabilization of mitochondrial membrane, cytosolic translocation of cytochrome c, caspase 3 activation and polyphenol resveratrol mediated cell death in human colorectal cancer cells Homo sapiens

Inhibitors

Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
pepstatin A it is shown that Pepstatin A prevents polyphenol resveratrol (RV)-mediated cytotoxicity in human colorectal cancer cells Homo sapiens
