Fifteen ketone-containing peptides were designed, synthesized, and used to probe the effect of substitution at the P1' position on caspase-3 and -7 inhibition. Even with the large bias of Ac-Asp-Glu-Val-Asp at the P4-P1 positions, certain peptides with cyclic functionality in the P1' position show a dramatically reduced ability to inhibit these caspases. Additionally, trends toward isozyme sele...
Linoleic acid (LA), a potentially algae-inhibiting chemical released by macroalgae, has been shown to hinder the growth of numerous bloom-forming species. The allelopathic effects LA (varying from 100 μg/L 900 μg/L) on harmful microalgae K. mikimotoi were examined using population dynamics and physiological levels . (>500 strongly inhibited algal with most cells halted at S G2 phases an ...
Escherichia coli is a major environmental pathogen causing bovine mastitis, characterized by cell death and mammary tissue damage. Apoptosis, form of death, has an important role in the pathogenesis mastitis. Selenium, essential trace element, protects against mastitis acting through several biochemical pathways, potentially including prevention apoptosis. Our objective was to investigate wheth...
Inhibition of caspase-6 is a potential therapeutic strategy for some neurodegenerative diseases, but it has been difficult to develop selective inhibitors against caspases. We report the discovery and characterization of a potent inhibitor of caspase-6 that acts by an uncompetitive binding mode that is an unprecedented mechanism of inhibition against this target class. Biochemical assays demons...
PURPOSE This study was designed to evaluate the apoptotic effect of mapatumumab or lexatumumab, human agonistic antibodies that target the tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand receptor 1 (TRAIL-R1) and receptor 2 (TRAIL-R2), in combination with chemotherapeutic agents, against human solid cancer cells. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN Cytotoxicity was determined by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazo...
Earlier reports have shown that herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) mutants induce programmed cell death and that wild-type HSV blocks the execution of the cell death program triggered by viral gene products, by the effectors of the immune system such as the Fas and tumor necrosis factor pathways, or by nonspecific stress agents such as either osmotic shock induced by sorbitol or thermal shock. A re...
Hypoxic necrosis of dentate gyrus neurons in primary culture required the activation of an orderly cell death program independent of protein synthesis. Early mitochondrial swelling and loss of the mitochondrial membrane potential were accompanied by release of cytochrome c and followed by caspase-9-dependent activation of caspase-3. Caspase-3 and -9 inhibitors reduced neuronal necrosis. Calcium...
Apoptotic cell death plays an important role in many developmental pathways in multicellular animals. Here, we show that metamorphosis in the basal invertebrate Hydractinia echinata (Cnidaria) depends on the activity of caspases, the central enzymes in apoptosis. Caspases are activated during metamorphosis and this activity can be measured with caspase-3 specific fluorogenic substrates. In affi...
Caspases are proteases at the heart of networks that govern apoptosis and inflammation. The past decade has seen huge leaps in understanding the biology and chemistry of the caspases, largely through the development of synthetic substrates and inhibitors. Such agents are used to define the role of caspases in transmitting life and death signals, in imaging caspases in situ and in vivo, and in d...
