DFFA Antibody

1. Glandular, menopause-independent DFF40, DFF45, and Bcl-2 overexpression may play an important role in the pathogenesis of endometrial polyps and benign endometrial hyperplasia PMID: 28914671
2. evaluate the relative expression levels of miR-196a2 and three of its selected apoptosis-related targets; ANXA1, DFFA and PDCD4 in a sample of GI cancer patients PMID: 29091952
3. Data show that the caspase-activated DNase (CAD) is activated when caspases cleave its endogenous inhibitor ICAD, resulting in the characteristic DNA laddering of apoptosis. PMID: 26106156
4. Data suggest that DFF45 gene silencing, when applied in combination with doxorubicin, may offer a therapeutic strategy for the treatment of breast cancer. PMID: 24277473
5. ICAD deficiency was associated with severe genomic instability. PMID: 23451280
6. mRNA splicing is actively driven toward the pro-apoptotic isoforms of Bim, Bcl-x, and ICAD in Pnn-depleted MCF-7 cells. PMID: 22454513
7. The DFF45 level in human endometrium corresponds to the respective phase of the menstrual cycle and decreases significantly after menopause. PMID: 22378161
8. study reveals a previously unrecognized function of miR-145 in DFF45 processing, which may underlie crucial aspects of cancer biology PMID: 20687965
9. The heterodimer, DFF40-DFF45, is localized to the chromatin fraction under apoptotic as well as non-apoptotic conditions. PMID: 19882353
10. DFF45 at chromosome 1 reveal rare allelic variants in neuroblastoma tumors PMID: 11870543
11. NMR solution structure of the C-terminal domain of DFF45, which is essential for its chaperone-like activity PMID: 12144788
12. Hypoxia-induced cleavage of caspase-3 and DFF45/ICAD in human failed cardiomyocytes. PMID: 12181128
13. subunit structures and stoichiometries in human cells before and after induction of apoptosis PMID: 12748178
14. Hepatitis C virus core protein increases a steady-state level of ICAD protein, possibly through enhancing its promoter activity PMID: 14675622
15. apoptotic DNA fragmentation factor is required for the maintenance of genetic stability and may play a role in tumor suppression PMID: 16432220
16. plays an important and P53-independent role in maintaining chromosome stability and suppressing tumor development PMID: 16619042
17. demonstrate the cellular mechanisms of neuronal cell degeneration induced via c-Jun-N-terminal kinases and caspase-dependent signaling PMID: 17645689
18. C-terminal region of each subunit, DFF40 (RLKRK) and DFF45 (KRAR), is essential for nuclear accumulation of the DFF complex. PMID: 17938174
19. Interestingly, nuclear DNA fragmentation occurred and consistently DNA fragmentation factor (DFF45)/Inhibitor of caspase-activated DNase (ICAD) was cleaved inside the cell as well as in vitro, suggesting a role of caspase-2 in nuclear DNA fragmentation. PMID: 17945178
20. The highest level of DFF45 endometrial expression was found during the early secretory cycle phase, and significantly lower DFF45 expression was found in the endometrium during the mid-secretory as compared to the early secretory cycle phase. PMID: 18292826
21. identified a TATA-less region upstream of the transcription start site as a basal promoter of the ICAD gene. An E-Box motif, which binds transcription factors of the basic helix-loop-helix/leucine zipper family, is responsible for transcriptional activity PMID: 18500556
22. MPP(+) did not change the total levels of c-Jun but enhanced phosphorylation of c-Jun at Ser73 and cleavage of DNA fragmentation factor 45, which were diminished by selegiline. PMID: 18805449
23. A decreased level of DFF45 observed in ovarian endometriosis may be a part of an apoptosis-resistant mechanism enhancing the disease progression. PMID: 19535198
