Non-Secreted Clusterin Isoforms Are Translated in Rare Amounts from Distinct Human mRNA Variants and Do Not Affect Bax-Mediated Apoptosis or the NF-κB Signaling Pathway

Abstract excerpt

Clusterin, also known as apolipoprotein J, is expressed from a variety of tissues and implicated in pathological disorders such as neurodegenerative diseases, ischemia and cancer. In contrast to secretory clusterin (sCLU), which acts as an extracellular chaperone, the synthesis, subcellular localization and function(s) of intracellular CLU isoforms is currently a matter of intense discussion. By investigating...
