| Recombinant TRAIL - Recombinant Tumor Necrosis Factor-Related Apoptosis-Inducing Ligand Recommended Abbreviation: rTRAIL Alternative Names: Recombinant TRAIL, recombinant TNFSF10, Apo2L/TRAIL Type: Recombinant protein / biologic anticancer agent / death-receptor agonist Function: Recombinant TRAIL binds primarily to the death receptors DR4 (TNFRSF10A) and DR5 (TNFRSF10B), causing death-inducing signaling complex formation, caspase-8 activation, downstream caspase activation, and apoptosis. Many cancer cells are more sensitive to TRAIL-induced apoptosis than normal cells, although resistance is common. Cancer: ↑ TRAIL-induced death-receptor signaling is generally favorable because it promotes extrinsic apoptosis in susceptible cancer cells. Recombinant TRAIL and TRAIL-receptor agonists have shown substantial preclinical anticancer activity, although clinical efficacy has been limited by short circulating half-life, receptor biology, and intrinsic or acquired TRAIL resistance. |

| Bid is an abundant pro-apoptotic protein of the Bcl-2 family that is crucial for death receptor-mediated apoptosis in many cell systems. The expression of BID can serve as a prognostic marker in several cancers. Higher levels of BID are often associated with increased apoptosis and better treatment responses, while lower levels may indicate resistance to therapy and poorer outcomes. Generation of Truncated Bid (tBid): • When apoptosis is signaled, specific proteases (such as caspase-8) cleave full-length Bid into its truncated form, tBid. • tBid is the active form that translocates to mitochondria. So "the truncation of Bid" means that the protein has been converted into an active form (tBid) that supports apoptosis. |
