Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the effects of muscle-specific oxidative stress on phosphorylation and its relationship with mitochondrial dysfunction, muscle oxidation, and apoptosis of porcine PM (psoas major) and LL (longissimus lumborum) during the first 24 h postmortem. The global phosphorylation level decreased and the mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidation level, and apoptosis increased significantly at 12 h postmortem compared with 2 h postmortem, suggesting that lower phosphorylation level was related to more mitochondrial dysfunction and apoptosis during the early postmortem, regardless of muscle type. PM exhibited a higher global phosphorylation level but showed greater mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidation level, and apoptosis than LL, regardless of aging time. The increased mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress accelerated apoptosis, but their relationship with phosphorylation was different in various muscle types at different aging times. These findings provide insight regarding the roles of coordinated regulation of phosphorylation and apoptosis in development of quality of different muscles.

Abstract
This study investigated the effect of lysosomal iron involvement in the mechanism of mitochondrial apoptosis on bovine muscle protein degradation during postmortem aging. Six crossbred cattle were studied to evaluate intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS), antioxidant enzyme activity, lysosomal membrane stability, mitochondrial dysfunction-induced apoptosis, desmin and troponin-T degradation in both control and iron chelator desferrioxamine (DFO) groups. Results showed that lysosomal iron induced ROS accumulation and lysosomal membrane destabilization by decreasing the antioxidant enzyme activity (P < 0.05). Subsequently, lysosomal dysfunction mediated by iron increased mitochondrial membrane permeability and decreased mitochondrial membrane potential, thereby enhancing Bid and cytochrome c release and caspase-9/-3 activation (P < 0.05). Ultimately, lysosomal iron mediated lysosomal-mitochondrial apoptosis increased the postmortem bovine muscle desmin and troponin-T degradation (P < 0.05). The results indicated that lysosomal iron contributes to postmortem meat tenderization through the lysosomal-mitochondrial dysfunction-induced apoptosis pathway.

Abstract
Apoptosis is an intricately regulated cellular process that proceeds through different cell type- and signal-dependent pathways. In the mitochondrial apoptotic program, mitochondrial outer membrane permeabilization by BCL-2 proteins leads to the release of apoptogenic factors, caspase activation, and cell death. In addition to protein components of the mitochondrial apoptotic machinery, an interesting role for lipids and lipid metabolism in BCL-2 family-regulated apoptosis is also emerging. We used a comparative lipidomics approach to uncover alterations in lipid profile in the absence of the proapoptotic proteins BAX and BAK in mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs). We detected over 1,000 ions in these experiments and found changes in an ion with an m/z of 534.49. Structural elucidation of this ion through tandem mass spectrometry revealed that this molecule is a ceramide with a 16-carbon N-acyl chain and sphingadiene backbone (d18:2/16:0 ceramide). Targeted LC/MS analysis revealed elevated levels of additional sphingadiene-containing ceramides (d18:2-Cers) in BAX, BAK-double knockout MEFs. Elevated d18:2-Cers are also found in immortalized baby mouse kidney epithelial cells lacking BAX and BAK. These results support the existence of a distinct biochemical pathway for regulating ceramides with different backbone structures and suggest that sphingadiene-containing ceramides may have functions that are distinct from the more common sphingosine-containing species.

Abstract
The literature on apoptosis has grown tremendously in recent years, and the mechanisms that are involved in this programmed cell death pathway have been enlightened. It is now known that apoptosis takes place starting from early development to adult stage for the homeostasis of multicellular organisms, during disease development and in response to different stimuli in many different systems. In this review, we attempted to summarize the current knowledge on the circumstances and the mechanisms that lead to induction of apoptosis, while going over the molecular details of the modulator and mediators of apoptosis as well as drawing the lines between programmed and non-programmed cell death pathways. The review will particularly focus on Bcl-2 family proteins, the role of different caspases in the process of apoptosis, and their inhibitors as well as the importance of apoptosis during different disease states. Understanding the molecular mechanisms involved in apoptosis better will make a big impact on human diseases, particularly cancer, and its management in the clinics.

Abstract
Lysosomes are membrane-bound organelles, which contain an arsenal of different hydrolases, enabling them to act as the terminal degradative compartment of the endocytotic, phagocytic and autophagic pathways. During the last decade, it was convincingly shown that destabilization of lysosomal membrane and release of lysosomal content into the cytosol can initiate the lysosomal apoptotic pathway, which is dependent on mitochondria destabilization. The cleavage of BID to t-BID and degradation of anti-apoptotic BCL-2 proteins by lysosomal cysteine cathepsins were identified as links to the mitochondrial cytochrome c release, which eventually leads to caspase activation. There have also been reports about the involvement of lysosome destabilization and lysosomal proteases in the extrinsic apoptotic pathway, although the molecular mechanism is still under debate. In the present article, we discuss the cross-talk between lysosomes and mitochondria during apoptosis and its consequences for the fate of the cell.

Abstract
Most of the 131 cells that die during the development of a C. elegans hermaphrodite do so ~30 min after being generated. Furthermore, in these cells, the pro-caspase proCED-3 is inherited from progenitors and the transcriptional upregulation of the BH3-only gene egl-1 is thought to be sufficient for apoptosis induction. In contrast, the four CEM neurons, which die in hermaphrodites, but not males, die ~150 min after being generated. We found that in the CEMs, the transcriptional activation of both the egl-1 and ced-3 gene is necessary for apoptosis induction. In addition, we show that the Bar homeodomain transcription factor CEH-30 represses egl-1 and ced-3 transcription in the CEMs, thereby permitting their survival. Furthermore, we identified three genes, unc-86, lrs-1 and unc-132, which encode a POU homeodomain transcription factor, a leucyl-tRNA synthetase and a novel protein with limited sequence similarity to the mammalian proto-oncoprotein and kinase PIM-1, respectively, that promote the expression of the ceh-30 gene in the CEMs. Based on these results, we propose that egl-1 and ced-3 transcription are co-regulated in the CEMs to compensate for limiting proCED-3 levels, which most probably are a result of proCED-3 turn over. Similar co-regulatory mechanisms for BH3-only proteins and pro-caspases may function in higher organisms to allow efficient apoptosis induction during development. Finally, we present evidence that the timing of the death of the CEMs is controlled by TRA-1 Gli, the terminal global regulator of somatic sexual fate in C. elegans.

Abstract
Already 20 years have passed since the cloning of the granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) receptor alpha-chain, the first member of the GM-CSF/interleukin (IL)-3/IL-5 family of hemopoietic cytokine receptors to be molecularly characterized. The intervening 2 decades have uncovered a plethora of biologic functions transduced by the GM-CSF receptor (pleiotropy) and revealed distinct signaling networks that couple the receptor to biologic outcomes. Unlike other hemopoietin receptors, the GM-CSF receptor has a significant nonredundant role in myeloid hematologic malignancies, macrophage-mediated acute and chronic inflammation, pulmonary homeostasis, and allergic disease. The molecular mechanisms underlying GM-CSF receptor activation have recently been revealed by the crystal structure of the GM-CSF receptor complexed to GM-CSF, which shows an unexpected higher order assembly. Emerging evidence also suggests the existence of intracellular signosomes that are recruited in a concentration-dependent fashion to selectively control cell survival, proliferation, and differentiation by GM-CSF. These findings begin to unravel the mystery of cytokine receptor pleiotropy and are likely to also apply to the related IL-3 and IL-5 receptors as well as other heterodimeric cytokine receptors. The new insights in GM-CSF receptor activation have clinical significance as the structural and signaling nuances can be harnessed for the development of new treatments for malignant and inflammatory diseases.

Abstract
Human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER-2/ErbB2/neu), a receptor tyrosine kinase that is amplified/overexpressed in poor prognosis breast carcinomas, confers resistance to apoptosis by activating cell survival pathways. Here we demonstrate that the cytoplasmic tail of HER-2 is cleaved by caspases at Asp(1016)/Asp(1019) to release a approximately 47-kDa product, which is subsequently proteolyzed by caspases at Asp(1125) into an unstable 22-kDa fragment that is degraded by the proteasome and a predicted 25-kDa product. Both the 47- and 25-kDa products translocate to mitochondria, release cytochrome c by a Bcl-x(L)-suppressible mechanism, and induce caspase-dependent apoptosis. The 47- and 25-kDa HER-2 cleavage products share a functional BH3-like domain, which is required for cytochrome c release in cells and isolated mitochondria and for apoptosis induction. Caspase-cleaved HER-2 binds Bcl-x(L) and acts synergistically with truncated Bid to induce apoptosis, mimicking the actions of the BH3-only protein Bad. Moreover, the HER-2 cleavage products cooperate with Noxa to induce apoptosis in cells expressing both Bcl-x(L) and Mcl-1, confirming their Bad-like function. Collectively, our results indicate that caspases activate a previously unrecognized proapoptotic function of HER-2 by releasing a Bad-like cell death effector.

Abstract
Apoptosis, a cell death mechanism regulated by Bcl-2 family members, has been proposed as one of the mechanisms leading to neuronal loss in Huntington's disease (HD). Here we examined the regulation of Bcl-2 family proteins in three different mouse models of HD with exon 1 mutant huntingtin: the R6/1, the R6/1:BDNF+/-, and the Tet/HD94 in which the huntingtin transgene is controlled by the tetracycline-inducible system. Our results disclosed an increase in the levels of the BH3-only proteins Bid and Bim(EL) in the striatum of HD mouse models that was different depending on the stage of the disease. At 16 weeks of age, Bid was similarly enhanced in the striatum of R6/1 and R6/1:BDNF+/- mice, whereas Bim(EL) protein levels were enhanced only in R6/1:BDNF+/- mice. In contrast, at later stages of the disease, both genotypes displayed increased levels of Bid and Bim(EL) proteins. Furthermore, Bax, Bak, Bad, Bcl-2, and Bcl-x(L) proteins were not modified in any of the points analyzed. We next explored the potential reversibility of this phenomenon by analyzing conditional Tet/HD94 mice. Constitutive expression of the transgene resulted in increased levels of Bid and Bim(EL) proteins, and only the Bid protein returned to wild-type levels 5 months after mutant huntingtin shutdown. In conclusion, our results show that enhanced Bid protein levels represent an early mechanism linked to the continuous expression of mutant huntingtin that, together with enhanced Bim(EL), may be a reporter of the progress and severity of neuronal dysfunction.

Abstract
Bcl-2 family proteins are key regulators of apoptosis and have recently been shown to modulate autophagy. The tumor suppressor Beclin 1 has been proposed to coordinate both apoptosis and autophagy through direct interaction with anti-apoptotic family members Bcl-2 and/or Bcl-X(L). However, the molecular basis for this interaction remains enigmatic. Here we report that Beclin 1 contains a conserved BH3 domain, which is both necessary and sufficient for its interaction with Bcl-X(L). We also report the crystal structure of a Beclin BH3 peptide in complex with Bcl-X(L) at 2.5A resolution. Reminiscent of previously determined Bcl-X(L)-BH3 structures, the amphipathic BH3 helix of Beclin 1 bound to a conserved hydrophobic groove of Bcl-X(L). These results define Beclin 1 as a novel BH3-only protein, implying that Beclin 1 may have a direct role in initiating apoptotic signaling. We propose that this putative apoptotic function may be linked to the ability of Beclin 1 to suppress tumor formation in mammals.
