Type:
Members of the caspase family of proteases play essential roles in the initiation and execution of apoptosis. These caspases are divided into two groups: the initiator caspases (caspase-2, −8, −9 and −10), which are the first to be activated in response to a signal, and the executioner caspases (caspase-3, −6, and −7) that carry out the demolition phase of apoptosis. Downregulation of caspase-3 is an effective apoptosis-evading mechanism frequently observed in cancer cells in association with acquired chemoresistance to apoptosis-inducing anticancer drugs. Indeed, re-expression of caspase-3 often restores sensitivity to apoptosis.
Caspase-7:
Role: Executioner caspase similar to caspase-3.
Cancers: Expression levels can vary; often studied in breast and prostate cancers.
Prognosis: Its prognostic value is less clear and may depend on the cancer type.

Pancreatic Cancer: Hypoxia (low oxygen tension) is commonly found in solid tumors. Hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1),is a key mediator of the cellular response to hypoxia and is overexpressed in a wide variety of solid tumors, including pancreatic cancer.
Nanog is highly expressed in CSCs compared to normal cells [93–97]
