Caspase-10 is a member of the caspase family of cysteine proteases, which play essential roles in programmed cell death (apoptosis) and inflammation.
Caspase-10 is crucial for the induction of apoptosis in response to various signals. In many cancers, the apoptotic pathways are dysregulated, allowing cancer cells to evade programmed cell death. Loss of caspase-10 function or expression can contribute to this evasion, promoting tumor survival and growth.
Caspase-10 may act as a tumor suppressor. Its expression can be downregulated in various cancers, including breast, colorectal, and prostate cancers.
Caspase-10 is frequently downregulated in various cancers, which may contribute to the evasion of apoptosis and tumor progression.
