Detection of Caspase Activation In Situ by Fluorochrome-Labeled Caspase Inhibitors
Apoptosis is dependent on the activation of a group of proteolytic enzymes called caspases. Caspase activation can be detected by immunoblotting using caspase-specific antibodies or by caspase activity measurement employing pro-fluorescent substrates that become fluorescent upon cleavage by the casp...
