Rabbit anti Human Caspase-1 antibody recognizes an epitope within the C-terminal region (CT) of human Caspase-1, otherwise known as IL-1Beta converting enzyme. Caspase-1 is an intracellular cysteine protease, identified as a mammalian homologue to C. elegans cell death gene (ced-3).

Caspase-1 has been classified as an inflammatory, rather than apoptotic caspase, due to its essential role in the cleavage of the inactive precursors of the cytokines IL-1beta and IL-18, into their mature activated and secretable forms.

Regulation of pro-inflammatory cytokines by Caspase-1 has made inhibitors of Caspase-1 a possible target for use as therapeutic drugs for the treatment of inflammatory diseases (Ghayur et al. 1997).

Rabbit anti Human Caspase-1 antibody detects a cleaved subunit band of approximately 21 kDa in human heart cell lysates (predicted precursor MWT 45.2kDa).

This product is shipped at ambient temperature. It is recommended to aliquot and store at -20°C on receipt. When thawed, aliquot the sample as needed. Keep aliquots at 2-8°C for short term use (up to 4 weeks) and store the remaining aliquots at -20°C.

Avoid repeated freezing and thawing as this may denature the antibody. Storage in frost-free freezers is not recommended.
