Diarylurea compounds inhibit caspase activation by preventing the formation of the active 700-kilodalton apoptosome complex.

The release of mitochondrial proapoptotic proteins into the cytosol is the key event in apoptosis signaling, leading to the activation of caspases. Once in the cytosol, cytochrome c triggers the formation of a caspase-activating protein complex called the apoptosome, whereas Smac/Diablo and Omi/htra...
