Pharmacological inhibition of p38 potentiates antimicrobial peptide TP4-induced cell death in glioblastoma cells.

abstract：:NLRX1, the mitochondrial NOD-like receptor (NLR), modulates apoptosis in response to both intrinsic and extrinsic cues. Insights into the mechanism of how NLRX1 influences apoptosis remain to be determined. Here, we demonstrate that NLRX1 associates with SARM1, a protein with a toll/interleukin-1 receptor (TIR)-contai...
