Low levels of Caspase-3 predict favourable response to 5FU-based chemotherapy in advanced colorectal cancer: Caspase-3 inhibition as a therapeutic approach

Cell Death and Disease, 2016
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common cancers in the Western world. 5-Fluorouracil (5FU)-based chemotherapy (CT) remains the mainstay treatment of CRC in the advanced setting, and activates executioner caspases in target cells.

Caspase-3 in Postnatal Retinal Development and Degeneration

Investigative Opthalmology & Visual Science, 2004
The primary purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of caspase-3 ablation on photoreceptor degeneration in the rd-1 mouse. Concurrently, the role of caspase-3 in postnatal retinal development was evaluated. Caspase-3 is an important effector caspase that mediates many of the terminal proteolytic events of apoptosis.

YAP1::TFE3 mediates endothelial‐to‐mesenchymal plasticity in epithelioid hemangioendothelioma

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The YAP1::TFE3 fusion protein drives endothelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (EndMT) plasticity, resulting in the loss of endothelial characteristics and gain of mesenchymal‐like properties, including resistance to anoikis, increased migratory capacity, and loss of contact growth inhibition in endothelial cells.

Requirement of Caspase-3 for Apoptotic Calcium Release [PDF]

Biophysical Journal, 2011
Calcium is known to be an important second messenger in regulation of various physiological processes including execution of programmed cell death. Calcium release from endoplasmic reticulum (ER) triggers activation of multiple pro-apoptotic factors resulting in apoptosis progression and, ultimately, cell death. Apoptotic calcium release from ER stores

A bioinformatics screen identifies TCF19 as an aggressiveness‐sustaining gene in prostate cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Gene expression meta‐analysis in multiple prostate cancer patient cohorts identifies Transcription factor 19 (TCF19) as an aggressiveness‐sustaining gene with prognostic potential. TCF19 is a gene repressed by androgen signaling that sustains core cancer‐related processes such as vascular permeability or tumor growth and metastasis.

Modeling hepatic fibrosis in TP53 knockout iPSC‐derived human liver organoids

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study developed iPSC‐derived human liver organoids with TP53 gene knockout to model human liver fibrosis. These organoids showed elevated myofibroblast activation, early disease markers, and advanced fibrotic hallmarks. The use of profibrotic differentiation medium further amplified the fibrotic signature seen in the organoids.

Miltirone induces GSDME-dependent pyroptosis in colorectal cancer by activating caspase 3

Heliyon
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a common and malignant tumor, ranking as the third most common cancer in men and the second most common cancer in women. Pyroptosis, a recently described programmed cell death mechanism mediated by the GSDM family, has emerged ...

PYCR1 inhibition in bone marrow stromal cells enhances bortezomib sensitivity in multiple myeloma cells by altering their metabolism

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study investigated how PYCR1 inhibition in bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) indirectly affects multiple myeloma (MM) cell metabolism and viability. Culturing MM cells in conditioned medium from PYCR1‐silenced BMSCs impaired oxidative phosphorylation and increased sensitivity to bortezomib.
