Pramanicin analog induces apoptosis in human colon cancer cells: critical roles for Bcl-2, Bim, and p38 MAPK signaling [PDF]
, 2013 Pramanicin (PMC) is an antifungal agent that was previously demonstrated to exhibit antiangiogenic and anticancer properties in a few in vitro studies. We initially screened a number of PMC analogs for their cytotoxic effects on HCT116 human colon cancer

Effect of chlorpyrifos on the level of hippocampal caspase 9 in male rats: Short Commuincation
مجله دانشگاه علوم پزشکی بیرجند, 2023 Chlorpyrifos (CPF) is an organophosphate pesticide that can damage the nervous system of insects by causing neurotoxicity. Although the molecular mechanisms related to it are not fully understood, some studies have suggested that apoptotic processes are ...

Engineering a dimeric caspase-9: a re-evaluation of the induced proximity model for caspase activation. [PDF]
PLoS Biology, 2005 Caspases are responsible for the execution of programmed cell death (apoptosis) and must undergo proteolytic activation, in response to apoptotic stimuli, to function.

Mathematical modeling of the formation of apoptosome in intrinsic pathway of apoptosis [PDF]
, 2008 Caspase-9 is the protease that mediates the intrinsic pathway of apoptosis, a type of cell death. Activation of caspase-9 is a multi-step process that requires dATP or ATP and involves at least two proteins, cytochrome c and Apaf-1.
