Abstract:
The effects of murine oncostatin M (mOSM) are specifically mediated by the heterodimeric oncostatin M receptor (OSMR)/gp130 receptor complex. In the current study we demonstrate that murine adrenocortical Y-1 tumor cells express the OSMR/gp130 complex. Incubation of Y-1 cells with 1 and 10 ng/ml mOSM induces cell death due to specific induction of apoptosis. Western blot analysis of Y-1 cells incubated with mOSM for 24 h revealed caspase-3 cleavage and poly(ADP-ribase) polymerase (PARP) cleavage...     »
