Apoptosis and autophagy: Regulation of caspase‐9 by phosphorylation [PDF]
Cell death by the process of apoptosis plays important roles in development, tissue homeostasis, diseases and drug responses. The cysteine aspartyl protease caspase‐9 plays a central role in the mitochondrial or intrinsic apoptotic pathway that is engaged in response to many apoptotic stimuli.

Caspase-9 and effector caspases have sequential and distinct effects on mitochondria [PDF]
Proapoptotic Bcl-2 family members alter mitochondrial permeability resulting in the release of apoptogenic factors that initiate a caspase cascade. These changes are well described; however, the effects of caspases on mitochondrial function are less well characterized.

Astaxanthin effect on apoptotic biomarkers in methotrexate-induced liver injury
Methotrexate is used in the treatment of cancer, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis and several other disorders. It has a hepatotoxic potential side effect. Patients who have no access to alternative medications face a serious challenge as a result.

Caspase 8 and caspase 9 gene polymorphisms and susceptibility to gastric cancer [PDF]
Caspase-8 (CASP8) and caspase-9 (CASP9) play crucial roles in regulating apoptosis, and their functional polymorphisms may alter cancer risk. Our aim was to investigate the association of CASP8 and CASP9 gene polymorphisms with gastric cancer (GC) susceptibility.We undertook a case-control study of 88 GC cases and 480 controls to investigate the ...

Regulation of the Apaf-1/Caspase-9 Apoptosome by Caspase-3 and XIAP [PDF]
The apoptosome is a multiprotein complex comprising Apaf-1, cytochrome c, and caspase-9 that functions to activate caspase-3 downstream of mitochondria in response to apoptotic signals. Binding of cytochrome c and dATP to Apaf-1 in the cytosol leads to the assembly of a heptameric complex in which each Apaf-1 subunit is bound noncovalently to a ...
