The intracellular coral–dinoflagellate symbiosis is the engine that underpins the success of
coral reefs, one of the most diverse ecosystems on the planet. However, the breakdown of …

Infectious diseases are an increasing threat to coral reefs, resulting in altered community
structure and hindering the functional contributions of disease-susceptible species. We …

Although homogeneous detection of some biomolecules has been of great significance in
clinical assay, it faces great challenges in achieving precise in situ imaging of biomolecules …

Apoptosis is regulated cell death that depends on caspases. A specific initiator caspase is
involved upstream of each apoptotic signaling pathway. Characterized in nematode, fly, and …

Caspase-3 is an important biomarker for the process of apoptosis, which is a key target for
cancer treatment. Due to its low concentration in single cells and the structural similarity of …

Caspases are a family of cysteinyl proteases that control programmed cell death and
maintain homeostasis in multicellular organisms. The caspase family is an excellent model …

Caspases are evolutionarily conserved cysteinyl proteases that are integral in cell
development and apoptosis. All apoptotic caspases evolved from a common ancestor into …

In vertebrate, X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis (XIAP) is a potent inhibitor of apoptosis. XIAP
inhibits apoptosis by interacting with proapoptotic caspases via the baculovirus IAP repeat …

Since the publication of the Janeway's pattern recognition hypothesis in 1989, the past 33
years have seen rapid advances in the study of innate immunity, with a focus on pathogen …

The caspase family has been found as regulated proteins that play an important role in
apoptosis and inflammation. Incorrect caspase regulation may cause serious diseases such …
