Cloning of human Bcl-2 homologue: inflammatory cytokines induce human A1 in cultured endothelial cells
15 Apr 1996
Abstract excerpt
Bcl-2 is an intracellular membrane-associated protein that functions to block programmed cell death. Despite recurrent exposure to cellular toxins from the circulation and tissue, endothelial cells are remarkably resistant to cell death. Because Bcl-2 protein levels are low or undetectable in endothelial cells, we postulated that other members of the growing Bcl-2 family would be present in endothelial cells to...
