The caspase-3/GSDME signal pathway as a switch between apoptosis and pyroptosis in cancer

open access: yesCell Death Discovery, 2020
Apoptosis has long been recognized as a mechanism that kills the cancer cells by cytotoxic drugs. In recent years, studies have proved that pyroptosis can also shrink tumors and inhibit cells proliferation.

Caspase-3, Shears for Synapse Pruning [PDF]

open access: yesDevelopmental Cell, 2014
Motor neurons regulate neuromuscular junction formation by using agrin to stimulate acetylcholine receptor clustering and using acetylcholine to disperse unnecessary receptor clusters on muscle fibers. Wang et al. (2014) now report in this issue of Developmental Cell a critical role for caspase-3 in intracellular mechanisms of acetylcholine-induced ...

Analyses of the differential expression of cloned Caspase-3 and Caspae-9 genes, of Onchidium reevesii, exposed to extreme hot and cold conditions

open access: yesAquaculture and Fisheries, 2021
During low tide intertidal organisms face severe temperature fluctuations. This situation may be more pronounced in the context of climate change.

Huntingtin inhibits caspase-3 activation [PDF]

open access: yesThe EMBO Journal, 2006
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.

Overexpression of caspase-3 in hepatocellular carcinomas [PDF]

open access: yesModern Pathology, 2004
Caspase-3 is a downstream effector cysteine protease in the apoptotic pathway. It is ubiquitously expressed in normal human tissues including the liver. Overexpression and loss of expression of caspase-3 has been reported in diverse human malignancies. However, expression of caspase-3 in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has not been studied.

Chemotherapy-induced pyroptosis is mediated by BAK/BAX-caspase-3-GSDME pathway and inhibited by 2-bromopalmitate

open access: yesCell Death and Disease, 2020
Many chemotherapy treatments induce apoptosis or pyroptosis through BAK/BAX-dependent mitochondrial pathway. BAK/BAX activation causes the mitochondrial outer membrane permeabilization (MOMP), which induces the activation of pro-apoptotic caspase cascade.

Astaxanthin effect on apoptotic biomarkers in methotrexate-induced liver injury

open access: yesAl-Mustansiriyah Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2022
Methotrexate is used in the treatment of cancer, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis and several other disorders. It has a hepatotoxic potential side effect. Patients who have no access to alternative medications face a serious   challenge as a result.

Screening for Caspase-3 Inhibitors: A New Class of Potent Small-Molecule Inhibitors of Caspase-3 [PDF]

open access: yesSLAS Discovery, 2006
From the authors' 650,000 compound collection, they have selected approximately 15,000 potential small-molecule protease inhibitors, which were subjected to high-throughput screening against caspase-3. The screening yielded a series of hits that belong to 11 different scaffolds.

MDA-MB-231 cell apoptosis in vitro induced by dihydromyricetin

open access: yes浙江大学学报. 农业与生命科学版, 2012
To investigate the effect of dihydromyricetin (DMY) induction on MDA-MB-231 cell apoptosis and its mechanism, the changes of cell morphological characteristics were observed under inverted microscope.
