Three distinct signaling pathways lead to programmed cell death (apoptosis).
Two of these are the death receptor and mitochondrion pathways, in which the key apoptotic proteases caspase-8 and caspase-9, respectively, are involved.
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is the third apoptotic pathway and caspase-12 is involved (1,2).
Caspase-12 is localized to the ER but not to the cytoplasm or mitochondrion.
Caspase-12 is activated by ER stress, including disruption of ER calcium homeostasis, and mediates ER stress-induced apoptosis.
Caspase-12 is colocalized to the ER with several proteins that are involved in Alzheimer’s disease, including g-secretase presenilin and b-amyloid precursor protein (APP).
Caspase-12 mediates cytotoxicity induced by amyloid-b.
Caspase-12 is ubiquitously expressed in mouse tissues.
