Apoptosis of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) is an integral part of cardiovascular diseases including atherosclerosis, hypertension and restenosis. Here we studied the fate of VSMCs in response to intracellular superoxide stimulation. Diethyldithiocarbamic acid (DDC) was used to inhibit copper-zinc superoxide dismutase thereby increasing intracellular superoxide levels. The results show that...
To date much attention has been focused on regulation of apoptosis in proliferating cells. However, recent evidence shows that regulation of apoptosis in quiescent tissue plays an important role in homeostasis of the organism. This review examines the implications of apoptosis of quiescent cells for both tumourigenesis and viral infection such as HIV. In this article we propose a dual role for cellular...
