Abstract
Background
We have previously discovered that Notch1 is expressed on malignant T cells in cutaneous T-cell lymphoma(CTCL), and is required for survival of CTCL cell lines. Notch can be inhibited by γ-secretase inhibitors (GSIs), which differ widely in their ability to induce apoptosis in CTCL. Objectives To investigate whether GSI-I, in addition to inhibiting Notch, induces apoptosis in CTCL by proteasome inhibition, as GSI-I is very potent and has structural similarity to the proteasome inhibitor MG-132. Methods Cell lines derived from CTCL (MyLa, SeAx, JK, Mac1 and Mac2a) were treated with GSI-I and two other proteasome inhibitors (MG-132 and bortezomib). The effects on cell viability, apoptosis and proteasome activity were measured, as was the impact on the prosurvival, nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) pathway. Results In CTCL, GSI-I had proteasome-blocking activity with a potency comparable to the proteasome inhibitors MG-132 and bortezomib.
Proteasome inhibition was the main mechanism responsible for GSI-I-induced cell death, as tiron, a compound known to reverse the effect of MG-132, restored proteasome activity and largely abrogated the cytotoxic effect of GSI-I. Although inactivation of NF-κB is an important mechanism of action for proteasome inhibitors, we demonstrated an apparent activation of NF-κB. Furthermore, we showed that while the tumour suppressor protein p53 was induced during proteasome inhibition, it was dispensable for CTCL apoptosis, as both SeAx cells, which harbour p53 mutations that attenuate the apoptotic capacity, and HuT-78 cells, which have a deleted p53 gene, demonstrated potent apoptotic response. Conclusions GSI-I represents an interesting drug with a dual mechanism of action comprising inhibition of both Notch and the proteasome.

Hi there Pat, I was actually just reading a few of your posts and had a quick question about your blog. I was hoping you could email me back when you get the chance, thanks : )

HOW I GOT CURED OF HERPES VIRUS.
Hello everyone out there, i am here to give my testimony about a herbalist called Dr Imoloa. i was infected with herpes simplex virus 2 in 2013, i went to many hospitals for cure but there was no solution, so i was thinking on how i can get a solution out so that my body can be okay. one day i was in the pool side browsing and thinking of where i can get a solution. i go through many website were i saw so many testimonies about dr imoloa on how he cured them. i did not believe but i decided to give him a try, i contacted him and he prepared the herpes for me which i received through DHL courier service. i took it for two weeks after then he instructed me to go for check up, after the test i was confirmed herpes negative. am so free and happy. so, if you have problem or you are infected with any disease kindly contact him on email drimolaherbalmademedicine@gmail.com. or / whatssapp --+2347081986098.
