Dissecting caspase-2-mediated cell death: from intrinsic PIDDosome activation to chemical modulation
27 Apr 2024
Abstract excerpt
Caspase-2, a highly conserved member of the caspase family, is considered an initiator caspase that triggers apoptosis in response to some cellular stresses. Previous studies suggest that an intracellular multi-protein complex PIDDosome, induced by genotoxic stress, serves as a platform for caspase-2 activation. Due to caspase-2's inability to process effector caspases, however, the mechanism underlying...
