Background: Caspase-3 is a cysteine-aspartic acid protease of the caspase family of proteins, belonging to group II (apoptotic executioner caspases). It plays a role in cell differentiation, tissue regeneration, apoptosis and neural development. It is synthesized as a zymogen, or procaspase, requiring cleavage by initiator caspases to trigger apoptosis. Its activity results in several cell changes, such as membrane blebbing, DNA fragmentation and the formation of apoptotic vesicles. Cell death via apoptosis can occur by intrinsic and extrinsic pathways. In response to DNA damage, metabolic or ER (endoplasmic reticulum) stress the intrinsic pathway can be activated. Caspase-3 can be inhibited by XIAP (X-linked IAP), cIAP1 and cIAP2. Deregulation of caspase activity can result in cancer, as many of the regulators of their activity are oncogenes or tumor suppressors. Caspase-3 has been used in the treatment of cancer, heart failure and neurogenerative disorders. Further understanding of the role of caspase-3 in disease will allow us to develop innovative and efficacious new therapies.
