Western blot analysis of extracts from Hela (lane 2(20μg), Jurkat (lane 3(20μg) and HEK293 (lane 4(20μg) using Caspase-3(HY-P80046) Rabbit mAb. Proteins were transferred to a PVDF membrane and blocked with 5% non-fat milk in TBST for 2 hour at room temperature. The primary antibody (1/1000) and Loading control antibody (Beta Actin, HY-P80438, 1/10000) was used in 5% non-fat milk in TBST at 4°C overnight. Goat Anti-Mouse IgG-HRP Secondary Antibody (1/10000) was used for 1 hour at room temperature.

Immunocytochemistry analysis of Hela cells labeling Caspase-3 with Caspase-3 Antibody (HY-P80046)at 1/50 dilution. Cells were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde for 15 minutes at room temperature, permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 for 10 minutes at room temperature, then blocked with QuickBlock™ Blocking Buffer for Immunol Staining for 10 min at room temperature. Cells were then incubated with Caspase-3 Antibody (HY-P80046) at 1/50 dilution in QuickBlock™ Blocking Buffer for Immunol Staining at 4 ℃. Alexa Fluor® 488-conjugated AffiniPure Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L(HY-P8002, Green) was used as the secondary antibody at 1/1,000 dilution. PBS instead of the primary antibody was used as the secondary antibody only control. The Nuclear counterstain was DAPI (Blue).
Background

Function
Caspase 3 is a central executioner caspase in apoptosis, where initiator caspase 9 activates executioner caspases 3 and 7 by proteolysis[1]. Mechanistically, caspase 3 cleaves caspase 9 at Asp330 and enhances apoptosis by relieving XIAP-mediated inhibition, rather than directly activating caspase 9[1]. This places caspase 3 within apoptosome-linked feedback control and inhibitor-of-apoptosis regulation, while preserving a distinct functional profile from caspase 7[1][2]. Compared with caspase 7, caspase 3 can cleave caspase 9 under physiologically relevant conditions, and engineered activation studies show that caspase 3 or caspase 7, but not caspase 6 alone, is sufficient to induce apoptosis[1][2]. In disease models, caspase 3 and caspase 7 deletion did not reduce infarct size or ventricular remodeling after transient myocardial ischemia-reperfusion, limiting assumptions about canonical caspase-dependent apoptosis in adult cardiomyocytes[3]. In prostate cancer samples, procaspase 3 and cleaved caspase 3 predicted biochemical progression after radical prostatectomy, supporting their use as apoptosis-related tumor markers[4]. For experimental applications, caspase 3 research benefits from isoform-aware probes because common DEVD-based peptide inhibitors and substrates cannot reliably distinguish caspase 3 from caspase 7[5].
