In summary, we have shown the inhibitory effects of Bcl-2 family on the ceramide-mediated apoptotic pathway in glioma cells. Bcl-2 is considered to act not only downstream of ceramide to inhibit cytochrome c release followed by caspase activation, but also upstream of or at SMase to prevent ceramide generation.igure 3 Effects of Bcl-2 or Bax overexpression on ceramide formation and neutral sphingomyelinase activation in etoposide-treated C6 cells. C6/Neo (), C6/Bcl-2 (), and C6/Bax () cells were treated with 40 M etoposide for indicated periods.
Hawaii, which has the highest-paid waiters and waitresses in the country (mean wage: $13.91/hour) has a minimum wage of $7.00 for tipped employees.
Just like the dealers, cocktail waitresses are paid minimum wage by the casinos and make their livelihood from tips. The standard tip is $1 per drink, but even $1 every other drink still means nearly $40,000/yr. in earnings for a waitress, even after their 20% tip-out to the bartender, so that's what I tip.ll dealers make minimum wage, or barely more, for their salary, even at the best casinos in town. Don't think that their tips are gravy on top of their salary -- for dealers the tips pretty much are their salary. And they pay taxes on those tips, just like the cocktail waitresses.
