      Most intrinsic death signals converge into the activation of pro-apoptotic BCL-2 family members BAX and BAK at the mitochondria, resulting in the release of cytochrome c and apoptosome activation. Chronic endoplasmic ...
    • Villablanca, Eduardo J.; Pistocchi, Anna; Court, Felipe A.; Cotelli, Franco; Bordignon, Claudio; Allende Connelly, Miguel; Traversari, Catia; Russo, Vincenzo (American Association of Immunologists, 2007)
      PGE2 is involved in a wide variety of physiological and pathological processes; however, deciphering its role in early mammalian development has been difficult due to the maternal contribution of PGE 2. To overcome this ...
