Ceramide has recently been regarded as a potential mediator of apoptosis. In the present study, the effects of Bcl-2 and Bax on the ceramide-mediated apoptotic pathways were examined in glioma cells overexpressing Bcl-2 or Bax.igure 3 Effects of Bcl-2 or Bax overexpression on ceramide formation and neutral sphingomyelinase activation in etoposide-treated C6 cells. C6/Neo (), C6/Bcl-2 (), and C6/Bax () cells were treated with 40 M etoposide for indicated periods.
minimum wage 2008/10/9 03:12 The minimum wage in Japan is between 750 yen to 850yen and if you work longer on the job it goes more like adding 20yen each year or so.
