Application Details

Restrictions: For Research Use only

Handling

Format: Liquid

Buffer: PBS containing 0.02 % sodium azide.

Preservative: Sodium azide

Precaution of Use: WARNING: Reagents contain sodium azide. Sodium azide is very toxic if ingested or inhaled. Avoid contact with skin, eyes, or clothing. Wear eye or face protection when handling. If skin or eye contact occurs, wash with copious amounts of water. If ingested or inhaled, contact a physician immediately. Sodium azide yields toxic hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions. Dilute azide-containing compounds in running water before discarding to avoid accumulation of potentially explosive deposits in lead or copper plumbing.

Handling Advice: Avoid freezing and thawing repeatly.

Storage: 4 °C/-20 °C

Storage Comment: Store at 4 °C for short term use.Store at -20 °C for long term preservation.

Background: Caspases are a family of cysteine proteases that can be divided into the apoptotic and inflammatory caspase subfamilies.Unlike the apoptotic caspases, members of the inflammatory subfamily are generally not involved in cell death but are associated with the immune response to microbial pathogens.Members of this subfamily include caspase-1, -4, -5, and -12.Activation of these caspases results in the cleavage and activation of proinflammatory cytokines such as IL-1beta and IL-18.Caspase-4 was initially identified as a homologous protein to Caspase-1 and the C.elegans Ced-3 which could induce apoptosis in transfected cells.More recent studies have shown that it can be activated by ER stress and has been suggested to be involved in multiple neuronal pathologies such as Alzheimer's disease.
