إن بروتينات زمرة 2-Bcl من العناصر الضرورية المعنية في الموت الخلوي الـذي تـسببه
عوامل مختلفة و متعددة في أنماط خلوية واسعة، كما يعد السستين حمضاً أمينيـاً طليعيـاً
و أساسياً في تركيب الثيول خصوصاً الغلوتاثيون (GSH) .
تم الكشف عن الآلية التي بوساطتها يمكن لبروتينات الـ2-Bcl مقاومـة المـوت الخلـوي
المبرمج الناتج عن انعدام السستين من وسط الزرع، في خلايا كبدية pEF/Hepz هجينـة
و خلايا أخرى ذات تعبير مفرط لمورثة الـ2-Bcl تدعى 2-Bcl/Hepz.
The Bcl-2 family of proteins has been implicated as a necessary factor in the
death caused by a large number of different agents of a wide variety of cell
types. Cystine is a precursor for the biosynthesis of the intracellular Thiol,
(glutathione) GSH.
The mechanism by which Bcl-2 resist cystine deprivation induced apoptosis
was investigated in hepatocyte Hepz/Bcl-2 and Hepz/pEF cell lines.
