Kaposi's sarcoma herpesvirus microRNAs target caspase 3 and regulate apoptosis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2011
Kaposi's sarcoma herpesvirus (KSHV) encodes a cluster of twelve micro (mi)RNAs, which are abundantly expressed during both latent and lytic infection.

Caspase-9 cleavage: do you need it

open access: yes, 2007
Caspase-9 which is activated by association with the Apaf-1 apoptosome complex cleaves and activates the downstream effector caspases-3 and -7, thereby executing the caspase-cascade and cell death programme.

Apoptosis in the absence of caspase 3 [PDF]

open access: yesOncogene, 2001
MCF-7 human breast cancer cells do not express caspase 3, thought by some to be a critical component of the apoptosis cascade. Nonetheless, both mock- and bcl-2-transfected MCF-7 cells undergo apoptosis after treatment with a variety of stimuli, including the DNA-cleaving antimitotic agent, neocarzinostatin (NCS).

Metalloporphyrins inactivate caspase‐3 and ‐8 [PDF]

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, 2005
ABSTRACT 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 vitro settings.

Molecular Dynamics Studies of Caspase-3 [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2003
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.

Caspase-3 western blot.

open access: yes, 2022
Western blot of pro- and cleaved caspase-3 [ratio to ß-actin]. Shown are representative blots separated by location of lung tissue sampling (contusion site, ipsilateral control, and contralateral control). Lung tissue samples were homogenized, separated,

Rewiring Pyroptosis to Potentiate Cancer Immunotherapy via a Gasdermin D Agonist Bypassing Caspase-3. [PDF]

open access: yesAdv Sci (Weinh)
This work introduces a small‐molecule agonist, DIBDO, that bypasses Casp‐3 to directly trigger GSDMD‐mediated pyroptosis in tumors. Activated by glutathione, DIBDO generates singlet oxygen and molecular iodine, blocking Casp‐3 pathways and inducing immunogenic cell death.

Regulation of caspase-3 processing by cIAP2 controls the switch between pro-inflammatory activation and cell death in microglia. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The activation of microglia, resident immune cells of the central nervous system, and inflammation-mediated neurotoxicity are typical features of neurodegenerative diseases, for example, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases. An unexpected role of caspase-

Uterine Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress and Its Unfolded Protein Response May Regulate Caspase 3 Activation in the Pregnant Mouse Uterus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
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 ...
