Caspase-9 suppresses metastatic behavior of MDA-MB-231 cells in an adaptive organoid model [PDF]
Caspase-9, a cysteine-aspartate protease traditionally associated with intrinsic apoptosis, has recently emerged as having non-apoptotic roles, including influencing cell migration—an aspect that has received limited attention in existing studies. In our

Caspase-9 mediates synaptic plasticity and memory deficits of Danish dementia knock-in mice: caspase-9 inhibition provides therapeutic protection [PDF]
Background Mutations in either Aβ Precursor protein (APP) or genes that regulate APP processing, such as BRI2/ITM2B and PSEN1/PSEN2, cause familial dementias.

Proteolytic Processing of the Caspase-9 Zymogen Is Required for Apoptosome-mediated Activation of Caspase-9 [PDF]
Maturation of the single-chain caspase-9 zymogen through autoproteolytic processing is mediated by the Apaf-1 apoptosome at the onset of apoptosis. Processed caspase-9 and the apoptosome form a holoenzyme with robust proteolytic activity that is 2-3 orders of magnitude higher than that of free processed caspase-9.

GENETIC POLYMORHISM OF CASPASE 8 AND 9 IN IRAQ
This study examined the potential association between polymorphisms of Caspase 9 −293del (rs4645982) and Caspase8−652 6N ins / del (rs3834129) and the danger of acute and chronic myeloid leukaemia in Iraqi population.

The Apoptosome Activates Caspase-9 by Dimerization [PDF]
The apical protease of the human intrinsic apoptotic pathway, caspase-9, is activated in a polymeric activation platform known as the apoptosome. The mechanism has been debated, and two contrasting hypotheses have been suggested. One of these postulates an allosteric activation of monomeric caspase-9; the other postulates a dimer-driven assembly at the

Astaxanthin effect on apoptotic biomarkers in methotrexate-induced liver injury
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.
