Inhibitors of apoptosis: expression and regulation in the endometrium during the estrous cycle and at the maternal-conceptus interface during pregnancy in pigs [PDF]
Objective Caspase-mediated apoptosis plays a crucial role in the regulation of endometrial and placental function in females. Caspase activity is tightly controlled by members of the inhibitors of apoptosis proteins (IAPs) family. However, the expression

Pyroptosis and respiratory diseases: A review of current knowledge
Pyroptosis is a relatively newly discovered programmed cell death accompanied by an inflammatory response. In the classical view, pyroptosis is mediated by caspases-1,-4,-5,-11 and executed by GSDMD, however, recently it was demonstrated that caspase-3 ...

Detection of Caspase Activation In Situ by Fluorochrome-Labeled Caspase Inhibitors
Apoptosis is dependent on the activation of a group of proteolytic enzymes called caspases. Caspase activation can be detected by immunoblotting using caspase-specific antibodies or by caspase activity measurement employing pro-fluorescent substrates ...
