Caspase-1 as a regulatory molecule of lipid metabolism [PDF]
AbstractCaspase-1 is an evolutionarily conserved inflammatory mediated enzyme that cleaves and activates inflammatory cytokines. It can be activated through the assembly of inflammasome and its major effect is to activate the pro-inflammatory cytokines; interleukin 1β (IL-1β) and interluekine-18 (IL-18).

Caspase-1 is a novel target of p63 in tumor suppression
p63 is a p53 family transcription factor, which besides unique roles in epithelial development, shares tumor suppressive activity with its homolog p53.

Uterine Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress and Its Unfolded Protein Response May Regulate Caspase 3 Activation in the Pregnant Mouse Uterus [PDF]
We have previously proposed that uterine caspase-3 may modulate uterine contractility in a gestationally regulated fashion. The objective of this study was to determine the mechanism by which uterine caspase-3 is activated and consequently controlled in ...

Apoptosis in prostate carcinoma tissue: The role of caspase-3, caspase-1, and alkaline DNase activity [PDF]
Background: Prostate glandular tissue maintains a delicate balance between cellular proliferation and programmed cell death (apoptosis), ensuring the preservation of normal glandular architecture in healthy individuals.

Pyroptosis was suppressed in ZIKV-infected macrophages with pro-caspase-1 knockdown.
(A) Knockdown of pro-caspase-1 in THP-1 cells. Cell lysates were prepared from lentiviral vector-transduced THP-1 cell lines, expressing shRNA1, 2, or 3 targeting mRNA of pro-caspase-1, for western blot analyses with pro-caspase-1 antibody to examine the

Inflammasomes activate the protease caspase-1, which cleaves interleukin-1β and interleukin-18 to generate the mature cytokines and controls their secretion and a form of inflammatory cell death called pyroptosis.

Oligomerized CARD16 promotes caspase‐1 assembly and IL‐1β processing
Increasing evidence indicates that caspase recruitment domain (CARD)‐mediated caspase‐1 (CASP1) assembly is an essential process for its activation and subsequent interleukin (IL)‐1β release, leading to the initiation of inflammation.

Alpha 1-antitrypsin does not inhibit human monocyte caspase-1. [PDF]
BACKGROUND:Alpha 1-antitrypsin (A1AT) is a 52 kDa serine protease inhibitor produced largely by hepatocytes but also by mononuclear phagocytes. A1AT chiefly inhibits neutrophil elastase and proteinase-3 but has also been reported to have immune ...

Caspase-1 Inhibitor Reduces Pyroptosis Induced by Brain Death in Kidney
Brain death (BD) induces an organ-level inflammatory response. However, the underlying mechanisms have not been fully elucidated. Here, we investigated the role of caspase-1-mediated pyroptosis in BD-induced kidney injury in rats.

Role of Caspase 1 in Neurologic Disease [PDF]
In recent years substantial advances have taken place in understanding the mechanistic pathways mediating neuronal cell death in a variety of neurologic diseases. Since the central nervous system (CNS) has little, if any, power of functional neuronal regeneration, prevention of neuronal cell death is an important target of modern neurotherapeutics.
