Description
Q-VD-Oph (Quinoline-Val-Asp-Difluorophenoxymethylketone) is a potent pan- inhibitor with ranged from 25 to 400 nM for caspases 1,3,8, and 9. Q-VD-OPh can inhibits HIV infection.
Q-VD-OPh (5-100 μM) potently inhibits Actinomycin D-induced DNA laddering and subsequent apoptosis with minimal toxicity in WEHI 231 cells. Q-VD-OPh prevents caspase mediated cleavage of PARP and activation of the major initiator and effector caspases. Q-VD-OPh protects cardiac myocytes from virus-induced apoptosis in vitro.
In vivo
Q-VD-OPh inhibits caspase-1 activity, IL-18 protein expression, and neutrophil infiltration during ischemic ARF in mice. In vivo, caspase inhibition by Q-VD-OPh provides protection from virus-induced myocardial injury, with a significant reduction in caspase-3 activity. In TgCRND8 mice, Q-VD-OPh inhibits caspase-7 activation and limits the pathological changes associated with tau, including caspase cleavage.
