polyethylene glycol / Casp9 Cancer Research Results

PEG, polyethylene glycol: Click to Expand ⟱
Features:
PEG polyethylene glycol often used for nano particle stabilization. -Prevents aggregation, reduces opsonization -Increases half-life and stability -improves tumor targeting (EPR effect) repeated PEG exposure can trigger anti-PEG antibodies (found in ~20–40% of humans), which may Reduce therapeutic effectiveness

Casp9, Caspase-9: Click to Expand ⟱
Source:
Type:
Caspase-9 is the apoptotic initiator protease of the intrinsic or mitochondrial apoptotic pathway, which is activated at multi-protein activation platforms.
Caspases are divided into two groups: the initiator caspases (caspase-2, -8, -9 and -10), which are the first to be activated in response to a signal, and the executioner caspases (caspase-3, -6, and -7) that carry out the demolition phase of apoptosis.
Caspase-9:
Role: Initiator caspase in the intrinsic apoptotic pathway.
Cancers: Frequently studied in leukemia and solid tumors.
Prognosis: Reduced expression is often linked to chemoresistance and poor prognosis.
