Caspase-3 and caspase-8 expression in breast cancer: caspase-3 is associated with survival [PDF]
Impaired apoptosis is one of the hallmarks of cancer. Caspase-3 and -8 are key regulators of the apoptotic response and have been shown to interact with the calpain family, a group of cysteine proteases, during tumorigenesis.

Huntingtin inhibits caspase‐3 activation [PDF]
Huntington's disease results from a mutation in the HD gene encoding for the protein huntingtin. The function of huntingtin, although beginning to be elucidated, remains largely unclear. To probe the prosurvival function of huntingtin, we modulate levels of wild-type huntingtin in a number of cellular and in vivo models.

Molecular Dynamics Studies of Caspase-3 [PDF]
Caspase-3 is a fundamental target for pharmaceutical interventions against a variety of diseases involving disregulated apoptosis. The enzyme is active as a dimer with two symmetry-related active sites, each featuring a Cys-His catalytic dyad and a selectivity loop, which recognizes the characteristic DEVD pattern of the substrate.

Controlling TRAIL-mediated caspase-3 activation [PDF]
This commentary is addressed at the paper by Dr Jie and his co-workers in the current issue of Leukemia (‘Differential involvement of Bax and Bak in TRAIL-mediated apoptosis of leukemic T cells’). In this paper, the authors show the preferential use of Bax over Bak for the induction of mitochondrial apoptotic events in leukemic cell exposed to TRAIL 1.
