Usage
For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures.
Caspase inhibitor. Acts as a regulator of procaspase-1/CASP1 activation implicated in the regulation of the proteolytic maturation of pro-interleukin-1 beta (IL1B) and its release during inflammation. Inhibits the release of IL1B in response to LPS in monocytes. Also induces NF-kappa-B activation during the pro-inflammatory cytokine response. Also able to inhibit CASP1-mediated neuronal cell death, TNF-alpha, hypoxia-, UV-, and staurosporine-mediated cell death but not ER stress-mediated cell death. Acts by preventing activation of caspases CASP1 and CASP4, possibly by preventing the interaction between CASP1 and RIPK2.
Gene References into Functions
Expression of NOX4/p22(phox) as well as ROS production is enhanced by IL-1beta. On the other hand, the use of NOX4 inhibitors decreased IL-1beta-induced collagenase synthesis by chondrocytes.PMID:26521743
Caspase-1-mediated cell death is regulated, at least in part, by the balance of Rip2 and Cop; alterations of this balance may contribute to aberrant caspase-1-mediated pathogenesis in Huntington's disease.PMID:16354923
Cop inhibition of cell death, at least to a certain extent, results from its interference with the activation of caspase-1 and caspase-4.PMID:16920334
