Characterization of Canine Caspase-3
Journal of Veterinary Medical Science, 2004 The canine caspase-3 gene was cloned and sequenced. The canine caspase-3 cDNA clone was 1473 base pairs in length and encoded 277 amino acids. The predicted amino acid sequence showed 88.4%, 88.0%, 85.9%, 65.9% and 60.6% homology with that of human, pig, mouse, chicken and zebra fish caspase-3, respectively.

Virology Journal, 2012 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 ...

Bacterial secreted effectors and caspase‐3 interactions [PDF]
Cellular Microbiology, 2014 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.

Nature Communications, 2017 Apoptosis is a genetically regulated cell suicide programme mediated by activation of the effector caspases 3, 6 and 7. If apoptotic cells are not scavenged, they progress to a lytic and inflammatory phase called secondary necrosis.

Active caspase-3 is removed from cells by release of caspase-3-enriched vesicles
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Cell Research, 2013 Cleavage of Rho associated Coiled Coil kinase I (ROCK I) by caspase-3 contributes to membrane blebbing. Whether caspase-3 and ROCK I also play a role in the release of membrane vesicles is unknown. Therefore, we transfected a human breast cancer cell line (MCF-7) that is caspase-3 deficient, lacks membrane blebbing, and does not release membrane ...

Cells, 2012 Persistent cell shrinkage is a major hallmark of apoptotic cell death. The early-phase shrinkage, which starts within 30−120 min after apoptotic stimulation and is called apoptotic volume decrease (AVD), is known to be accomplished by activation of K ...

Controlling TRAIL-mediated caspase-3 activation [PDF]
Leukemia, 2004 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.

Nature Communications, 2019 Gasdermin E (GSDME/DFNA5) cleavage by caspase-3 liberates the GSDME-N domain, which mediates pyroptosis by forming pores in the plasma membrane.

Structural Basis for the Inhibition of Caspase-3 by XIAP [PDF]
Cell, 2001 The molecular mechanism(s) that regulate apoptosis by caspase inhibition remain poorly understood. The main endogenous inhibitors are members of the IAP family and are exemplified by XIAP, which regulates the initiator caspase-9, and the executioner caspases-3 and -7.
