Background of Casp3
CASP3 (Caspase3 Apoptosis-Related Cysteine Protease), also known as YAMA, CPP32 or APOPAIN, is a caspase protein that interacts with caspase 8 and caspase 9. It is encoded by the CASP3 gene. The CASP3 protein is a member of the cysteine-aspartic acid protease (caspase) family. Tiso et al. (1996) used radiation hybrid mapping to localize the CPP32 gene to human chromosome 4q33-q35.1. Fernandes-Alnemri et al. (1994) found that overexpression of CPP32 in insect cells induced apoptosis. Coexpression of the 2 CPP32 subunits in insect cells also resulted in apoptosis. Tewari et al. (1995) showed that purified human ICE cleaved the Yama proenzyme into a proteolytically active form and that activated Yama cleaved PARP into the 85-kD apoptotic form.

Western blot analysis of Caspase-3 (P17) using anti-Caspase-3 (P17) antibody (PA1961-1).
Electrophoresis was performed on a 5-20% SDS-PAGE gel at 70V (Stacking gel) / 90V (Resolving gel) for 2-3 hours. The sample well of each lane was loaded with 50ug of sample under reducing conditions.
Lane 1: Rat Heart Tissue Lysate
Lane 2: Rat Liver Tissue Lysate
Lane 3: Rat Thymus Tissue Lysate
Lane 4: Rat Spleen Tissue Lysate.
After Electrophoresis, proteins were transferred to a Nitrocellulose membrane at 150mA for 50-90 minutes. Blocked the membrane with 5% Non-fat Milk/ TBS for 1.5 hour at RT. The membrane was incubated with rabbit anti-Caspase-3 (P17) antigen affinity purified polyclonal antibody (Catalog # PA1961-1) at 0.5 μg/mL overnight at 4°C, then washed with TBS-0.1%Tween 3 times with 5 minutes each and probed with a goat anti-rabbit IgG-HRP secondary antibody at a dilution of 1:10000 for 1.5 hour at RT. The signal is developed using an Enhanced Chemiluminescent detection (ECL) kit (Catalog # EK1002) with Tanon 5200 system. A specific band was detected for Caspase-3 (P17) at approximately 32KD,19KD. The expected band size for Caspase-3 (P17) is at 32KD,17KD.

Experimental workflow. One hundred four rats were randomly divided into five groups: group S (sham, n = 20), group M (middle cerebral artery occlusion [MCAO], n = 28), group H2M (intermittent hypobaric hypoxia preconditioned MCAO group, 2 h/day, n = 20), group H6M (intermittent hypobaric hypoxia preconditioned MCAO group, 6 h/day, n = 28), and group HpM (persistent hypobaric hypoxia preconditioned MCAO group, n = 28). Behavioral tests and morphological staining (TTC staining) were used to analyze the severity of infarction. Total protein expression of NeuN (a specific marker of mature neurons), caspase-3, cleaved-caspase-3, and IL-6 was estimated using western blotting, which explained the severity of injury from different perspectives. Ultrastructural changes were observed under a transmission electron microscope. The most effective pretreatment group was selected for further label-free proteomic study and provided a reliable direction for mechanism exploration. Western blotting was used to verify the expression of the target protein, and key markers for the biological process were detected using immunofluorescence. caspase-3, cysteinyl aspartate specific proteinase 3; IL-6, interleukin 6; NeuN, neuron-specific nuclear protein; TTC, 2,3,5-triphenyl tetrazolium chloride.

IHC analysis of Caspase-3 (P17)using anti-Caspase-3 (P17)antibody (PA1961-1).
Caspase-3 (P17)was detected in paraffin-embedded section of rat intestine tissues. Heat mediated antigen retrieval was performed in citrate buffer (pH6, epitope retrieval solution) for 20 mins. The tissue section was blocked with 10% goat serum. The tissue section was then incubated with 1μg/ml rabbit anti-Caspase-3 (P17)Antibody (PA1961-1) overnight at 4°C. Biotinylated goat anti-rabbit IgG was used as secondary antibody and incubated for 30 minutes at 37°C. The tissue section was developed using Strepavidin-Biotin-Complex (SABC)(Catalog # SA1022) with DAB as the chromogen.

Question
We have seen staining in mouse lymph. Any tips? Is anti-Caspase-3(P17)/CASP3 antibody supposed to stain lymph positively?
Verified Customer

Asked: 2018-12-25
Answer
From what I have seen in literature lymph does express CASP3. From what I have seen in Uniprot.org, CASP3 is expressed in jejunal mucosa, t-cell, tongue, lymph, cervix carcinoma erythroleukemia, among other tissues. Regarding which tissues have CASP3 expression, here are a few articles citing expression in various tissues:
Cervix carcinoma, and Erythroleukemia, Pubmed ID: 23186163
Lymph, Pubmed ID: 15489334
T-cell, Pubmed ID: 7983002, 7774019
Tongue, Pubmed ID: 14702039

Question
We purchased anti-Caspase-3(P17)/CASP3 antibody for IHC on t-cell last year. I am using rat, and We intend to use the antibody for WB next. I was wanting to use examining t-cell as well as cervix carcinoma erythroleukemia in our next experiment. Could give a recommendation on which antibody would work the best for WB?

Answer
I have checked the website and datasheets of our anti-Caspase-3(P17)/CASP3 antibody and it seems that PA1961-1 has been tested on rat in both IHC and WB. Thus PA1961-1 should work for your application. Our Boster satisfaction guarantee will cover this product for WB in rat even if the specific tissue type has not been validated. We do have a comprehensive range of products for WB detection and you can check out our website bosterbio.com to find out more information about them.

Question
We were content with the WB result of your anti-Caspase-3(P17)/CASP3 antibody. However we have been able to see positive staining in jejunal mucosa cytoplasm. using this antibody. Is that expected? Could you tell me where is CASP3 supposed to be expressed?

From literature, jejunal mucosa does express CASP3. Generally CASP3 expresses in cytoplasm. Regarding which tissues have CASP3 expression, here are a few articles citing expression in various tissues:

Question
We are currently using anti-Caspase-3(P17)/CASP3 antibody PA1961-1 for mouse tissue, and we are well pleased with the WB results. The species of reactivity given in the datasheet says mouse, rat. Is it true that the antibody can work on dog tissues as well?

Asked: 2014-10-31
Answer
The anti-Caspase-3(P17)/CASP3 antibody (PA1961-1) has not been tested for cross reactivity specifically with dog tissues, though there is a good chance of cross reactivity. We have an innovator award program that if you test this antibody and show it works in dog you can get your next antibody for free. Please contact me if I can help you with anything.
