Western Blotting (WB), Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin-embedded Sections) (IHC (p))
Specificité
This antibody recognises an epitope within the C-terminal region (CT) of Caspase-1, otherwise known as IL-1Beta converting enzyme. This antibody detects a cleaved subunit band of approximately 21 kDa in heart cell lysates (predicted precursor MWT 45.2 kDa).

Caspase-1 is an intracellular cysteine protease, identified as a mammalian homologue to C. elegans cell death gene (ced-3). Caspase-1 has been classified as an inflammatory, rather than apoptotic caspase, due to its essential role in the cleavage of the inactive precursors of the cytokines IL-1beta and IL-18, into their mature activated and secretable forms. This regulation of pro-inflammatory cytokines by Caspase-1 has made inhibitors of Caspase-1 a possible target for use as therapeutic drugs for the treatment of inflammatory diseases.Synonyms: CASP-1, CASP1, ICE, IL1BC, IL1BCE, Interleukin-1 beta convertase, Interleukin-1 beta-converting enzyme, p45
