Cell Death & Differentiation, 1999 Caspases are the key effector molecules of the physiological death process known as apoptosis, although some are involved in activation of cytokines, rather than cell death. They exist in most of our cells as inactive precursors (zymogens) that kill the cell once activated. Caspases can be controlled in two ways.

SfDredd cleaved Sf-caspase-1 when transfected in Sf9 cells. [PDF]
, 2016 Plasmids expressing FLAG-tagged SfDredd and HA-tagged Sf-caspase-1 were co-transfected into Sf9 cells. Mock treated cells, GFP expressed Sf9 cells, and, GFP and Sf-caspase-1 co-expressed Sf9 cells were used as controls.

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2004 BAX inhibitor-1 (BI-1) proteins have been characterized as suppressors of programmed cell death in mammals and plants. The barley BI-1 is a suppressor of nonspecific background resistance and mlo-mediated penetration resistance to the biotrophic fungal ...

Expression of NLRP3 inflammasome in leprosy indicates immune evasion of Mycobacterium leprae [PDF]
Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2020 BACKGROUND Leprosy is an infectious-contagious disease caused by Mycobacterium leprae that remain endemic in 105 countries. This neglected disease has a wide range of clinical and histopathological manifestations that are related to the host ...

Fas induces apoptosis in human coronary artery endothelial cells in vitro
BMC Cell Biology, 2004 Background Published work suggests that some types of endothelial cells undergo apoptosis in response to ligation of the receptor Fas (CD95, APO1) but other types are resistant.

Caspase-3 activation in CSC treated U937 cells. [PDF]
, 2016 a) Treatment with CSC was associated with a time-dependent increase in caspase-3 activity. The increase in caspase-3 activity, compared to vehicle-treated cells, was found to be significant 24H and 48H after CSC treatment.

Caspase-3-Responsive Fluorescent/Photoacoustic Imaging of Tumor Apoptosis [PDF]
, 2023 Caspase-3 is an essential executor in apoptosis, and its activation has been regarded as a biomarker of cell apoptosis. The development of Caspase-3-responsive multimodal probes is a promising research prospect.

Cell Death & Differentiation, 2006 The relatively common occurrence of sequences within proteins that match the consensus substrate specificity of caspases in intracellular proteins suggests a multitude of substrates in vivo - somewhere in the order of several hundred in humans alone. Indeed, the list of proteins that are reported to be cleaved by caspases in vitro proliferates rapidly.

SfDredd directly cleaved Sf-caspase-1 in vitro. [PDF]
, 2016 (A) Sf-caspase-1-C178A (300 nmol/L) was incubated with 300 nmol/L of C-terminally His-tagged SfDredd, SfDredd-C443A or SfDronc at 37°C for 1 h in Na-Citrate buffer and then subjected to immunoblotting using an antibody against Sf-caspase-1.

Cell Death & Differentiation, 2011 Evasion of apoptosis is considered to be one of the hallmarks of human cancers. This cell death modality is executed by caspases and several upstream regulatory factors, which direct their proteolytic activity, have been defined as either tumor suppressors or oncogenes.
