Apoptosis in prostate carcinoma tissue: The role of caspase-3, caspase-1, and alkaline DNase activity [PDF]

Journal of Medical Biochemistry
Background: Prostate glandular tissue maintains a delicate balance between cellular proliferation and programmed cell death (apoptosis), ensuring the preservation of normal glandular architecture in healthy individuals.

TRAIL‐PEG‐Apt‐PLGA nanosystem as an aptamer‐targeted drug delivery system potential for triple‐negative breast cancer therapy using in vivo mouse model

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Aptamers are used both therapeutically and as targeting agents in cancer treatment. We developed an aptamer‐targeted PLGA–TRAIL nanosystem that exhibited superior therapeutic efficacy in NOD/SCID breast cancer models. This nanosystem represents a novel biotechnological drug candidate for suppressing resistance development in breast cancer.

Tau and Caspase 3 as Targets for Neuroprotection [PDF]

International Journal of Alzheimer's Disease, 2012
The peptide drug candidate NAP (davunetide) has demonstrated protective effects in variousin vivoandin vitromodels of neurodegeneration. NAP was shown to reduce tau hyperphosphorylation as well as to prevent caspase-3 activation and cytochrome-3 release from mitochondria, both characteristic of apoptotic cell death. Recent studies suggest that caspases

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Dimethyl fumarate combined with cisplatin at subcytotoxic doses sensitizes cervical cancer toward ferroptosis and apoptosis through GSH restriction and p53 (re)activation

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Dimethyl fumarate (DMF) reduces growth of HPV‐positive cervical cancer spheroids and induces ferroptosis in cervical cancer cells via blocking SLC7A11/Glutathione (GSH) axis. Combination of subcytotoxic doses of DMF and cisplatin (CDDP) further suppresses spheroid growth and drives cell death in 2D culture models.

Caspase-3 activation in CSC treated U937 cells.

, 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 inhibition attenuates accumulation of β-amyloid by reducing β-secretase production and activity in rat brains after stroke

Neurobiology of Disease, 2008
In this study, we tested if caspase-3 inhibition decreased ischemia-induced Aβ elevation by reducing β-secretase (BACE1) activity. Changes in caspase-3, Aβ and BACE1 levels were detected in rat striatum on different days after middle cerebral artery ...
