Oxidative Stress Pathways Linked to Apoptosis Induction by Low-Temperature Plasma Jet Activated Media in Bladder Cancer Cells: An In Vitro and In Vivo Study

open access: yesPlasma, 2022
Current methods used to treat non-muscle invasive bladder cancer are inadequate due to a high recurrence rate after surgery and the occurrence of adverse events such as interstitial pneumonia following intravesical instillation therapy.

Immunohistochemical Expression of Caspase 3 in Psoriasis

open access: yesJOURNAL OF CLINICAL AND DIAGNOSTIC RESEARCH, 2017
Psoriasis is a persistent chronic immune-mediated, relapsing, inflammatory and hyper proliferative skin disorder with genetic predisposition. Psoriasis can be considered as a T-cell mediated disease, with a complex role for a variety of cytokine interaction between keratinocytes and T-lymphocytes.

Galactose:PEGamine coated gold nanoparticles adhere to filopodia and cause extrinsic apoptosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Ultra-small gold nanoparticles, surface functionalised with a 50:50 ratio of a thiolated α-Galactose derivative and a thiolated hexaethylene glycol amine, are toxic to HSC-3 oral squamous carcinoma cells.

Conversion of Procaspase-3 to an Autoactivating Caspase by Fusion to the Caspase-2 Prodomain [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1998
Caspases are cysteine proteases that play an essential role in apoptosis. Initial activation of caspases defines the key step in apoptotic execution. Based on primary structure, caspases can be divided into two groups, those with long amino-terminal prodomains (class I), and those with relatively short prodomains (class II).

Impact of L-carnitine and selenium treatment on testicular apoptosis in rats exposed to 2.45 GHz microwave energy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Objective: It has been suggested that electromagnetic radiation (EMR) by wireless devices (2.45 GHz) induces testicular apoptosis. We investigated if supplemental selenium (Se) and L-carnitine may reduce this adverse effect.

The prodomain of caspase-3 regulates its own removal and caspase activation [PDF]

open access: yesCell Death Discovery, 2019
AbstractCaspase-3 is a cysteine–aspartic acid protease that cleaves cellular targets and executes cell death. Our current understanding is caspase-3 is activated by the cleavage of the interdomain linker and then subsequent cleavage of the N-terminal prodomain.

TRAIL, DR5 and Caspase 3-dependent Apoptosis in Vessels of Diseased Human Temporomandibular Joint Disc. An Immunohistochemical Study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
To evaluate the apoptosis involvement in the angiogenesis as a self-limiting process in patients with temporomandibular joint (TMJ) degenerated disc vessels, we assessed, by immunohistochemistry, the detection of TRAIL, its death receptor DR5 and caspase

Caspase-3 and caspase-6 in ductal breast carcinoma: a descriptive study.

open access: yesHistology and histopathology, 2006
Caspases are the main point in the apoptotic process. We have collected some information from 210 cases of Ductal breast cancer (pT1 - pT2) such as tumour size, histological differentiation degree, lymph node status and tumor necrosis in the infiltrating component and we have evaluated the number of apoptotic cells or bodies by TUNEL technique as well ...

Caspase-1 Is an Apical Caspase Leading to Caspase-3 Cleavage in the AIM2 Inflammasome Response, Independent of Caspase-8 [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Molecular Biology, 2018
Canonical inflammasomes are multiprotein complexes that can activate both caspase-1 and caspase-8. Caspase-1 drives rapid lysis of cells by pyroptosis and maturation of interleukin (IL)-1β and IL-18. In caspase-1-deficient cells, inflammasome formation still leads to caspase-3 activation and slower apoptotic death, dependent on caspase-8 as an apical ...

Caspase-9, caspase-3 and caspase-7 have distinct roles during intrinsic apoptosis [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Cell Biology, 2013
AbstractBackgroundApoptosis is a form of programmed cell death that is regulated by the Bcl-2 family and caspase family of proteins. The caspase cascade responsible for executing cell death following cytochromecrelease is well described; however the distinct roles of caspases-9, -3 and -7 during this process are not completely defined.ResultsHere we ...
