High impact information on CASP3

 

Chemical compound and disease context of CASP3

 

Biological context of CASP3

  • The porcine caspase-3 cDNA isolated in this study will be useful for the study of apoptotic cell death in pigs and will lead to the discovery of therapeutic uses of caspases and their inhibitors in the prevention of viral and bacterial diseases and tissue injury associated with xenotransplantation and allotransplantation [11].
  • Changes in caspase-3 activation and c-Jun phosphorylation were most marked in the proximal region of the jejunum [1].
  • The open reading frame (ORF) of porcine caspase-3 cDNA was 834 base pairs (bp) in length and encoded 277 amino acids [11].
  • Cellular proliferation and apoptosis were measured [apoptosis by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated deoxyuridine triphosphate (dUTP) nick end-labeling (TUNEL) assay or by caspase-3 activity] [12].
  • Brain cell injury was assessed with caspase-3 activity, histology, and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP-biotin in situ nick end (TUNEL)-labeling [13].
 

Anatomical context of CASP3

 

Associations of CASP3 with chemical compounds

  • PDE4A11 differs from PDE4A4 in sensitivity to cleavage by caspase-3, interaction with LYN SH3 domain, redistribution upon long-term rolipram challenge, and sensitivity to certain PDE4 inhibitors [15].
  • In addition, beraprost sodium reversed the ioversol-induced increase in bax mRNA with a concomitant decrease in bcl-2 mRNA and subsequent activation of caspase-3 and -9, thereby resulting in the inhibition of the nuclear damage [16].
  • HO-1 overexpressing cells were markedly resistant to apoptosis induced by TNFalpha/cycloheximide or staurosporine as assessed by the caspase-3 activity assay [17].
  • Finally, bezafibrate prevented cisplatin-induced release of cytochrome c from the mitochondria to the cytosol, and the cleavage of procaspase-3 to active caspase-3 [18].
  • UVB also increased activated caspase-3, in a manner suppressible by mono-dansyl cadaverine [19].
 

Regulatory relationships of CASP3

 

Other interactions of CASP3

  • The effects of hypoxia on the neonatal brain were characterized through a time-course analysis of levels of various proteins such as heat shock proteins (HSP27, 70, and 90), hypoxia inducible factor-1alpha (HIF-1alpha), neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS), hemeoxygenase-2 (HO-2), and caspase-3 [5].
  • The permeable exogenous C(2)-ceramide reproduces IL-1beta effects on: (i) inhibition of adenylyl cyclase activity, (ii) down-regulation of ERK1/2 phosphorylation, (iii) activation of caspase-3, and (iv) apoptosis in pig thyroid cells [24].
  • Only at the highest dose (200 ng/ml) when leptin was added with IGF-I did P4 secretion decrease with no effect on the caspase-3 activity [25].
  • Instead, they produced increasing amounts of MMP-9, MMP-13, COX-2, activated caspase-3 and underwent apoptosis [26].
  • RESULTS: Our results indicated that linoleic acid and TNF-alpha independently, but more markedly in concert, up-regulated caspase-3 activity and induced annexin V binding and DNA fragmentation [27].
