Myeloid cell leukemia 1 (MCL-1) is a member of the B-cell lymphoma 2 protein family and has anti-apoptotic functions. Deregulation of MCL-1 has been reported in several cancers, including lung and breast cancer. In the present study, the association of MCL-1 expression with molecular features in colorectal cancer (CRC) has been highlighted.

Melanoma (malignant melanoma, MM) is a highly aggressive tumor, ranking as the third most common cutaneous malignancy and characterized by high metastatic potential, high mortality rates, and poor prognosis. Solanine, a major steroidal alkaloid found in potatoes, has widely reported anticancer benefits, though its inhibitory effects on melanoma cells are less studied. This study aimed to observe the effects of solanine on the proliferation, apoptosis, and related apoptotic proteins in melanoma A375 and A2058 cells and to investigate its possible anti-tumor mechanisms.

Introduction: Autoantibody-mediated complement activation plays an essential role in a variety of autoimmune disorders. However, the role of complement in systemic sclerosis (SSc) remains largely unknown. In this study, we aimed to determine the role of complement C3 in the development of a recently described SSc mouse model based on autoimmunity to angiotensin II receptor type 1 (AT1R).

Nicotine, the main toxic component of tobacco, directly or indirectly causes adverse effects on the liver metabolism. Melatonin, secreted by the pineal gland, has anti-apoptotic activity as well as antioxidant activity. The aim of this study was to reveal the antiapoptotic effects of melatonin in rats with experimentally induced chronic liver damage with nicotine.
