NLK facilitates Caspase‐8 activation to drive macrophage PANoptosis in sepsis [PDF]

open access: yesClinical and Translational Medicine
Mounting evidence indicates that macrophage PANoptosis—an integrated inflammatory cell‐death program comprising pyroptosis, apoptosis, and necroptosis—plays a pivotal role in sepsis pathogenesis. However, its upstream regulation remains poorly understood.

Caspase-3 and caspase-8 expression in breast cancer: caspase-3 is associated with survival [PDF]

open access: yesApoptosis, 2016
Impaired apoptosis is one of the hallmarks of cancer. Caspase-3 and -8 are key regulators of the apoptotic response and have been shown to interact with the calpain family, a group of cysteine proteases, during tumorigenesis. The current study sought to investigate the prognostic potential of caspase-3 and -8 in breast cancer, as well as the prognostic

Activation of the NLRP1B inflammasome by caspase-8 [PDF]

open access: yesCommunications Biology
Cleavage of the innate immune receptor NLRP1B by various microbial proteases causes the proteasomal degradation of its N-terminal fragment and the subsequent release of a C-terminal fragment that forms an inflammasome. We reported previously that metabolic stress caused by intracellular bacteria triggers NLRP1B activation, but the mechanism by which ...

Biomimetic dual-crosslinked GelMA-SilMA hydrogel microneedle for delivering DSPE-PEG2K-TAT-modified quercetin liposomes to treat rheumatoid arthritis via the caspase-8/caspase-3/GSDME pathway [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Nanobiotechnology
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by synovitis, whose pathogenesis remains unclear. Fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS) are central to the pathogenesis and progression of RA. This study aims to investigate the novel

GENETIC POLYMORHISM OF CASPASE 8 AND 9 IN IRAQ

open access: yesThe Iraqi Journal of Agricultural science, 2022
This study examined the potential association between polymorphisms of Caspase 9 −293del (rs4645982) and Caspase8−652 6N ins / del (rs3834129) and the danger of acute and chronic myeloid leukaemia in Iraqi population.

Immunohistochemical analysis of caspase expression in the brains of individuals with obesity or overweight

open access: yesObesity Science & Practice, 2023
Mechanisms underlying the negative effects of obesity on the brain are still unknown. Obesity is associated with oxidative stress in the brain and neuroinflammation that promotes neurodegenerative diseases.

The CULt of Caspase-8 Ubiquitination [PDF]

open access: yesCell, 2009
Caspase-8 is activated at the plasma membrane by the death-inducing signaling complex (DISC). Jin et al. (2009) show that polyubiquitination of caspase-8, rather than targeting it for proteasomal degradation, is critical for sustaining caspase-8 activity after dissociation from the DISC.

Caspase-1 and Caspase-8 Cleave and Inactivate Cellular Parkin [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2003
Lesions in the parkin gene cause early onset Parkinson's disease by a loss of dopaminergic neurons, thus demonstrating a vital role for parkin in the survival of these neurons. Parkin is inactivated by caspase cleavage, and the major cleavage site is after Asp126.

Overexpression of miR-382 Sensitizes Hepatocellular Carcinoma Cells to γδ T Cells by Inhibiting the Expression of c-FLIP

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Oncolytics, 2020
Human γδ T lymphocytes were reported to display anti-tumor effects against multiple cancers, including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Aberrant expression of microRNAs (miRNAs) leads to a low response to immunotherapy.
