Neurovascular injury associated non-apoptotic endothelial caspase-9 and astroglial caspase-9 mediate inflammation and contrast sensitivity decline [PDF]
Retinal neurovascular injuries are a leading cause of vision loss in young adults presenting unmet therapeutic needs. Neurovascular injuries damage homeostatic communication between endothelial, pericyte, glial, and neuronal cells through signaling ...

Evaluation Expression of the Caspase-3 and Caspase-9 Apoptotic Genes in Schizophrenia Patients. [PDF]
Apoptosis is programmed cell death that occurs by several pathways. Caspase-3 is induced by active caspase-9 via the intrinsic pathway. The aim of this research was to explore the expression of caspase-3 and caspase-9 in schizophrenia patients and healthy samples.RNA was isolated from the peripheral blood of 39 schizophrenia patients' and healthy ...

Characterization of a Novel Proapoptotic Caspase-2- and Caspase-9-binding Protein [PDF]
Caspases play important roles in regulating apoptotic signaling pathways. Here we report the cloning, by the yeast two hybrid system with dominant negative caspase-2 as "bait," of a proapoptotic molecule named proapoptotic caspase adaptor protein (PACAP), encoded by a 372-base pair open reading frame. Binding of this novel protein to caspase-2 (casp-2)

Quantification of Immunostained Caspase-9 in Retinal Tissue. [PDF]
The family of caspases is known to mediate many cellular pathways beyond cell death, including cell differentiation, axonal pathfinding, and proliferation. Since the identification of the family of cell death proteases, there has been a search for tools to identify and expand the function of specific family members in development, health, and disease ...

Mitochondrion-Mediated Cell Death through Erk1-Alox5 Independent of Caspase-9 Signaling [PDF]
Mitochondrial disruption leads to the release of cytochrome c to activate caspase-9 and the downstream caspase cascade for the execution of apoptosis.

Caspase-9 swings both ways in the apoptosome [PDF]
For nearly 2 decades, investigators have debated whether cysteinyl-aspartate-specific protease 9 (caspase-9) is activated within the apoptotic protease-activating factor 1 (Apaf-1) apoptosome through proximity-induced homodimerization or through ...

Mechanism of XIAP-Mediated Inhibition of Caspase-9 [PDF]
The inhibitor of apoptosis (IAP) proteins potently inhibit the catalytic activity of caspases. While profound insight into the inhibition of the effector caspases has been gained in recent years, the mechanism of how the initiator caspase-9 is regulated by IAPs remains enigmatic.

Caspase-9 suppresses metastatic behavior of MDA-MB-231 cells in an adaptive organoid model [PDF]
Caspase-9, a cysteine-aspartate protease traditionally associated with intrinsic apoptosis, has recently emerged as having non-apoptotic roles, including influencing cell migration—an aspect that has received limited attention in existing studies. In our
