Neuroglobin protects nerve cells from apoptosis by inhibiting the intrinsic pathway of cell death [PDF]
Apoptosis 15:401-411 (2010), 2010 In the past few years, overwhelming evidence has accrued that a high level of expression of the protein neuroglobin protects neurons in vitro, in animal models, and in humans, against cell death associated with hypoxic and amyloid insult. However, until now, the exact mechanism of neuroglobin's protective action has not been determined.

Cleavage of GSDME by caspase-3 determines lobaplatin-induced pyroptosis in colon cancer cells
Cell Death and Disease, 2019 Pyroptosis, a form of programmed cell death (PCD), has garnered increasing attention as it relates to innate immunity and diseases. However, the involvement of pyroptosis in the mechanism by which lobaplatin acts against colorectal cancer (CRC) is ...

Overexpression of caspase-3 in hepatocellular carcinomas [PDF]
Modern Pathology, 2004 Caspase-3 is a downstream effector cysteine protease in the apoptotic pathway. It is ubiquitously expressed in normal human tissues including the liver. Overexpression and loss of expression of caspase-3 has been reported in diverse human malignancies. However, expression of caspase-3 in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has not been studied.

Kaposi's sarcoma herpesvirus microRNAs target caspase 3 and regulate apoptosis.
PLoS Pathogens, 2011 Kaposi's sarcoma herpesvirus (KSHV) encodes a cluster of twelve micro (mi)RNAs, which are abundantly expressed during both latent and lytic infection.

Analysis Expression of ZIP1 and Caspase-3 Protein in Adenocarsinoma of the Prostate [PDF]
, 2016 Background: Carcinogenesis of adenocarcinoma of the prostate occurs due to dysregulation of zinc level within the cells. Intracellular zinc molecules influx is regulated by a transporter protein ZIP1, whose non-presence is predicted to inhibit apoptosis,

Huntingtin inhibits caspase-3 activation [PDF]
The EMBO Journal, 2006 Huntington's disease results from a mutation in the HD gene encoding for the protein huntingtin. The function of huntingtin, although beginning to be elucidated, remains largely unclear. To probe the prosurvival function of huntingtin, we modulate levels of wild-type huntingtin in a number of cellular and in vivo models.

Clinical translation of [18F]ICMT-11 for measuring chemotherapy-induced caspase 3/7 activation in breast and lung cancer [PDF]
, 2018 Background: Effective anticancer therapy is thought to involve induction of tumour cell death through apoptosis and/or necrosis. [18F]ICMT-11, an isatin sulfonamide caspase-3/7-specific radiotracer, has been developed for PET imaging and shown to have ...

An improved superoxide-generating nanodevice for oxidative stress studies in cultured cells
Biotechnology Reports, 2015 The effects of reactive oxygen species on cells have attracted great attention from both physiological and pathological aspects. Superoxide (O2−) is the primary reactive oxygen species formed in animals.

Caspase-3 and Caspase-6 cleave STAT1 in leukemic cells
Oncotarget, 2014 Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription-1 (STAT1) is phosphorylated upon interferon (IFN) stimulation, which can restrict cell proliferation and survival. Nevertheless, in some cancers STAT1 can act in an anti-apoptotic manner. Moreover, certain malignancies are characterized by the overexpression and constitutive activation of STAT1. Here, we
