High impact information on Bruce

  • Drosophila Bruce can potently suppress Rpr- and Grim-dependent but not Hid-dependent cell death [1].
  • However, it is still unknown whether Bruce inhibits apoptosis directly or instead plays some other more indirect role in mediating chemoresistance, perhaps by promoting drug export, decreasing the efficacy of DNA damage-dependent cell death signaling, or by promoting DNA repair [1].
  • BRUCE upregulation occurs in some cancers and contributes to the resistance of these cells to DNA-damaging chemotherapeutic drugs [1].
