Article Synopsis
- Apoptosis is a programmed cell death regulated by Bcl-2 and caspase proteins, with particular roles identified for caspases-9, -3, and -7 in this process.
- Caspase-9 is crucial for mitochondrial changes and production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by cleaving Bid into tBid, while its inhibition affects cellular morphology and ROS levels.
- Caspase-3 helps control ROS production and is essential for completing apoptosis, while caspase-7 is necessary for detaching apoptotic cells from their surroundings.
