Early Decrease in Respiration and Uncoupling Event Independent of Cytochrome c Release in PC12 Cells Undergoing Apoptosis by Libera Berghella, Elisabetta Ferraro

“…We found that, during staurosporine (STS)- induced apoptosis in PC12 cells, respiration is affected before the release of cytochrome c, as shown by a decrease in the endogenous uncoupled respiration and an uncoupling event, both occurring independently of cytochrome c release. The decline in the uncoupled respiration occurs also upon Bcl-2 overexpression (which inhibits cytochrome c release), while the uncoupling event is inhibited by Bcl-2. …”

The Change of Systemic Immune-Inflammation Index Independently Predicts Survival of Colorectal Cancer Patients after Curative Resection by Qingqing Chen, Haohao Wu, Xinwei Guo, Ke Gu, Wenjie Wang, Xiaochen Chen, Shengjun Ji, Hui Yang, Jiahao Zhu

“…Multivariate analysis revealed that pathological stages III-IV (HR=0.442, 95% CI=0.236-0.827, p=0.011), vascular invasion (HR=2.182, 95% CI=1.243-3.829, p=0.007), and the high-ΔSII group (HR=4.301, 95% CI=2.517-7.350, p<0.001) were independent predictors for OS. Adjuvant therapy (HR=0.415, 95% CI=0.250-0.687, p=0.001), vascular invasion (HR=3.305, 95% CI=1.944-5.620, p<0.001), and the high-ΔSII group (HR=4.924, 95% CI=2.992-8.102, p<0.001) were significant prognostic factors for DFS. …”
