Novel zebrafish caspase-3 substrates

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2007
The zebrafish model has been widely used to investigate numerous signaling pathways in vertebrates, including programmed cell death. Although several zebrafish proteins homologous to mammalian caspases have been identified, our understanding of these zebrafish caspases is still limited.

Survivin does not inhibit caspase-3 activity

Blood, 2000
Conway et al recently reported that alternatively spliced forms of mouse survivin exhibit different antiapoptotic properties.[1][1] This was inferred from inhibition of recombinant caspase-3 catalytic activity using a standard chromogenic assay in the presence of increasing concentrations ...

Posttranslational Regulation of Bim by Caspase‐3

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2007
Abstract:  Bim is a proapoptotic BH3‐domain‐only member of the Bcl‐2 family, and its expression is regulated both transcriptionally and posttranslationally. We developed an in vitro system examining the posttranslational regulation of Bim. Since Bim is a strong mediator of apoptosis, it has been quite difficult to establish cell lines stably ...

Emerging roles of caspase-3 in apoptosis [PDF]

Cell Death and Differentiation, 1999
Caspases are crucial mediators of programmed cell death (apoptosis). Among them, caspase-3 is a frequently activated death protease, catalyzing the specific cleavage of many key cellular proteins. However, the specific requirements of this (or any other) caspase in apoptosis have remained largely unknown until now. Pathways to caspase-3 activation have

Caspase-3 Induced Apoptosis in Transgenic Zebrafish

Biotechnology Letters, 2006
Zebrafish is an attractive model organism for studying apoptosis development because of its genetic accessibility. Here we describe the induction of clonally derived apoptosis in transgenic zebrafish expressing mouse caspase-3 (CASP3) under control of the zebrafish beta-actin promoter (betap).

Caspase-3-Responsive, Fluorogenic Bivalent Bottlebrush Polymers

ACS Macro Letters
Controlling the access of proteases to cleavable peptides placed at specific locations within macromolecular architectures represents a powerful strategy for biologically responsive materials design. Here, we report the synthesis of peptide-containing bivalent bottlebrush (co)polymers (BBPs) featuring polyethylene glycol (PEG) and 7-amino-4 ...

Flow Cytometric Detection of Activated Caspase-3

2008
Apoptosis (programmed cell death) is an active process that plays a critical role in multiple biologic processes from embryologic development, to lymphocyte development and selection, and homeostasis. The two major mechanisms of cell death are referred to as the intrinsic and extrinsic pathways.

Caspase 3 in breast cancer.

Clinical cancer research : an official journal of the American Association for Cancer Research, 2003
An inability to undergo apoptosis is widely thought to contribute to both tumorigenesis and tumor progression. One of the key mediators of apoptosis is the thiol protease caspase 3. In this investigation, caspase 3 mRNA and protein expression in breast cancer was examined.Caspase 3 was measured at the mRNA level using reverse transcription-PCR and at ...
