Influence of caspase activity on micronuclei detection: a possible role for caspase-3 in micronucleation.
Aneugenic and clastogenic agents are good inducers of both micronuclei and apoptosis. In its turn, apoptosis may modify the threshold values for the induction of micronuclei. This is of major concern for accurate assessment of hazard related to exposure to mutagens. In the present work we studied the influence of caspases, the key regulators of the apoptotic process, on the induction of micronu...
متن کاملFabrication of a protease sensor for caspase-3 activity detection based on surface plasmon resonance.
Diagnosis of apoptosis is essential to the early detection of therapy efficiency and the evaluation of disease progression. Caspase-3 is supposed to be closely related to cellular apoptosis. We describe here a label-free surface plasmon resonance (SPR) detection of apoptosis based on caspase-3 activity assay through enzyme digestion. An artificial peptide sequence was designed as a substrate of...
متن کاملCaspase-3 activity in papillary thyroid carcinomas.
AIM The aim of this work was to assess caspase-3 activity in the tissue of papillary thyroid carcinomas of patients and analyze the peculiarities of changes in this activity depending upon a number of pathomorphological and clinical features of tumoral process. METHODS Caspase-3 activity was determined by spectrophotometry with regard to acetyl-asp-glu-val-asp-paranitroanilide. RESULTS At i...
متن کاملDual Role of Caspase-11 in Mediating Activation of Caspase-1 and Caspase-3 under Pathological Conditions
Caspase-11, a member of the murine caspase family, has been shown to be an upstream activator of caspase-1 in regulating cytokine maturation. We demonstrate here that in addition to its defect in cytokine maturation, caspase-11-deficient mice have a reduced number of apoptotic cells and a defect in caspase-3 activation after middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO), a mouse model of stroke. Reco...
متن کاملEffect of Chemotherapeutic Drugs on Caspase-3 Activity, as a Key Biomarker for Apoptosis in Ovarian Tumor Cell Cultured as Monolayer. A Pilot Study
We aimed to develop a cost-effective and robust method to predict drug resistance in individualpatients. Representative tissue fragments were obtained from tumors removed from femalepatients, aged 24-74 years old. The tumor tissue was taken by a histopathology’s or a surgeonunder sterile conditions. Cells obtained by enzymatic dissociation from tumor after surgery, werecultured as a monolayer f...
