Identification of a new caspase homologue: caspase-14 [PDF]
Caspases are cysteinyl aspartate-specific proteinases, many of which play a central role in apoptosis. Here, we report the identification of a new murine caspase homologue, viz. caspase-14. It is most related to human/murine caspase-2 and human caspase-9, possesses all the typical amino acid residues of the caspases involved in catalysis, including the

Apoptosis and Pharmacological Therapies for Targeting Thereof for Cancer Therapeutics
Apoptosis is an evolutionarily conserved sequential process of cell death to maintain a homeostatic balance between cell formation and cell death. It is a vital process for normal eukaryotic development as it contributes to the renewal of cells and ...

ER Stress in COVID-19 and Parkinson’s Disease: In Vitro and In Silico Evidences
The outbreak of COVID-19 caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) signifies a serious worldwide concern to public health. Both transcriptome and proteome of SARS-CoV-2-infected cells synergize the progression of infection in

Caspase-2: the orphan caspase [PDF]
Despite an abundance of literature on the role of caspase-2 in apoptosis, there exists much controversy about this protease making it difficult to place caspase-2 correctly in the apoptotic cascade, and hence its role in apoptosis remains unclear. The identification of the PIDDosome as a signaling platform for caspase-2 activation prompted intense ...

Caspase-2S relative mRNA expression levels in neurological disease. [PDF]
(A) Caspase-2S mRNA expression levels trend lower in AD but not MCI compared to CN controls. Caspase-2S mRNA do not differ in LBD (B) or HD (C) compared to controls.
