Application

Caspase 3, a cysteine protease activator of caspase 6 and caspase 7, metabolizes amyloid-β 4A precursor protein. Caspase 3 may be detected using a variety of chromogenic and fluorogenic peptide substrates built around the DxxD (asp-x-x-asp) sequences DMQD and DEVD such as Ac-DMQD-pNa (Acetyl-Asp-Met-Gln-Asp-p- nitroanalide), chromogenic; Ac-DMQD-AMC (Acetyl-Asp-Met-Gln-Asp-amino-4-methylcoumarin), fluorogenic; Z-DEVD-AFC (Z-Asp-Glu-Val-Asp-AFC), flourogenic and Ac-DEVD-4M2Na.

Exposure of human keratinocyte HaCaT cells to ultraviolet B-irradiation induced apoptotic morphologic changes. In this study, we found that the ultraviolet B irradiation (0.25 J per cm2) induced phosphorylation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase and c-jun N-terminal protein kinase, and

The response of human myeloid leukemia cells to treatment with 1-beta-arabinofuranosylcytosine (ara-C) includes the induction of apoptosis. Ara-C induced apoptosis is associated with proteolytic cleavage of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) and protein kinase C (PKC) delta. However, the signals involved in
