Activating Compound

Activating Compound Comment Organism Structure
additional information rosiglitazone, i.e. BRL, induces procaspase-8 cleavage and activation to caspase-8 leading to apoptosis in breast cancer cells. Rosiglitazone transactivates the FasL promoter gene in a peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma PPARgamma-dependent manner Homo sapiens

Natural Substrates/ Products (Substrates)

Natural Substrates Organism Comment (Nat. Sub.) Natural Products Comment (Nat. Pro.) Rev. Reac.
additional information Homo sapiens Fas ligand, a type II transmembrane protein expressed on the surface of cells, induces apoptotic cell death by binding to its receptor Fas, resulting in recruitment of the Fas-associated death domain protein and caspase 8 zymogens to the receptor and the formation of the death-inducing signalling complex, after which the caspases cascade can be activated. Defects in the Fas/FasL apoptotic signalling pathway provide a survival advantage to cancer cells and may be implicated in tumorigenesis ?
