Metalloporphyrins inactivate caspase-3 and -8 [PDF]
Activation of caspases represents one of the earliest biochemical indicators for apoptotic cell death. Therefore, measurement of caspase activity is a widely used and generally accepted method to determine apoptosis in a wide range of in vivo and in ...

Bacterial secreted effectors and caspase‐3 interactions [PDF]
Apoptosis is a critical process that intrinsically links organism survival to its ability to induce controlled death. Thus, functional apoptosis allows organisms to remove perceived threats to their survival by targeting those cells that it determines pose a direct risk.

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.

Background Chronic hepatitis C (CHC) has emerged as a leading cause of cirrhosis in the U.S. and across the world. To understand the role of apoptotic pathways in hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, we studied the mRNA and protein expression patterns of ...

Clinical translation of [18F]ICMT-11 for measuring chemotherapy-induced caspase 3/7 activation in breast and lung cancer [PDF]
Background: Effective anticancer therapy is thought to involve induction of tumour cell death through apoptosis and/or necrosis. [18F]ICMT-11, an isatin sulfonamide caspase-3/7-specific radiotracer, has been developed for PET imaging and shown to have ...

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.
