Phylogenetic analysis of the caspase family in bivalves: implications for programmed cell death, immune response and development

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2021
Background Apoptosis is an important process for an organism’s innate immune system to respond to pathogens, while also allowing for cell differentiation and other essential life functions.

Anti-Proliferative and Apoptotic Activities of Rumex crispus

open access: yesLife, 2023
Colorectal cancer is the fourth leading cause of cancer death and the third most common cancer diagnosed in the United States. Several anticancer compounds from natural products have been of great interest in cancer chemotherapy and are currently in ...

Inhibition des caspases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Les caspases sont une famille de cystéines protéases bien connues pour leurs rôles centraux au cours de l’apoptose et de l’inflammation. Elles interviennent aussi dans des voies de mort cellulaire régulées non-apoptotiques, et contribuent à de très ...

Activation of Pro-apoptotic Caspases in Non-apoptotic Cells During Odontogenesis and Related Osteogenesis

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2018
Caspases are well known proteases in the context of inflammation and apoptosis. Recently, novel roles of pro-apoptotic caspases have been reported, including findings related to the development of hard tissues.

Tumor-promoting function of apoptotic caspases by an amplification loop involving ROS, macrophages and JNK in Drosophila

open access: yeseLife, 2017
Apoptosis and its molecular mediators, the caspases, have long been regarded as tumor suppressors and one hallmark of cancer is ‘Evading Apoptosis’.

The Connection Between Selected Caspases Levels in Bronchoalveolar Lavage Fluid and Severity After Brain Injury

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2022
ObjectiveThe interaction between the brain and lungs has been the subject of many clinical reports, while the exact impact of brain injury on the physiology of the respiratory system is still subject to numerous experimental studies.

Caspases on the brain [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience Research, 2002
AbstractThe basic mechanisms that underlie neurodegenerative diseases are unknown. Loss of function of specific regions of the brain is due to incapacitation of cells that constitute those regions. Cells can simply stop functioning normally (neurons may cease to transmit signals), or they may die.

Regulation of caspase-3 processing by cIAP2 controls the switch between pro-inflammatory activation and cell death in microglia. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The activation of microglia, resident immune cells of the central nervous system, and inflammation-mediated neurotoxicity are typical features of neurodegenerative diseases, for example, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases. An unexpected role of caspase-

Necroptosis of Lung Epithelial Cells Triggered by Ricin Toxin and Bystander Inflammation

open access: yesCellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2023
Background/Aims: The ribosome-inactivating proteins include the biothreat agent, ricin toxin (RT). When inhaled, RT causes near complete destruction of the lung epithelium coincident with a proinflammatory response that includes TNF family cytokines ...
