Gene Information from Publications

Publication Link Summary of findings
18238895 p53-mediated apoptosis occurs by a PIDD- and caspase 2-dependent mechanism, and p53's full transcriptional regulatory functions may be required only for events that are downstream of cytochrome c release
18166155 control of caspase-2 exon 9 inclusion by topoisomerase inhibitors depends on phosphorylation and/or dephosphorylation events, and on the cell cycle phase
17637755 PIDD isoforms are capable of activating nuclear factor-kappaB in response to genotoxic stress, but only isoform 1 interacts with RIP-associated ICH-1/CED-3 homologous protein with a death domain and activates caspase-2.
17945178 Interestingly, nuclear DNA fragmentation occurred and consistently DNA fragmentation factor (DFF45)/Inhibitor of caspase-activated DNase (ICAD) was cleaved inside the cell as well as in vitro, suggesting a role of caspase-2 in nuclear DNA fragmentation.
17627033 Data suggest that caspase 2-mediated programmed cell death participates in the seizure-induced degenerative process in experimental and human TLE.
15173176 caspase-2 has a role in cleavage of Bid
12065594 acts upstream of mitochondria to promote cytochrome c release during etoposide-induced apoptosis
11823470 role in cytochrome C release and apoptosis from the nucleus
16172118 proteolytic activation of Bid and the subsequent induction of the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway through Bax/Bak is essential for apoptosis triggered by caspase-2
15262979 caspase-2 and caspase-8 activation have roles in the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway induced by ceramide or etoposide
