Z-VDVAD-FMK is a special inhibitor of caspase-2. Z-VDVAD-FMK produces a reduction in Lovastatin-induced apoptosis.

体外研究(In Vitro)
Cotreatment of cells with the caspase inhibitors Ac-DEVD-CHO, Z-VDVAD-FMK (100 μM), Z-IETD-fmk, and Z-LEHD-fmk alone or in combination, or overexpression of CrmA, prevents many morphological features of apoptosis but not loss of mitochondrial membrane potential (DCm), phospatidilserine exposure, and cell death. Z-VDVAD-FMK (2 μM) greatly inhibits the Rho-kinase activity in HMEC-1 cells stimulated by Thrombin and displays no effect on control cells. Z-VDVAD-FMK (zVDVAD-fmk) produces a reduction in Lovastatin-induced apoptosis. Z-VDVAD-FMK (100 μM) significantly reduces Lovastatin-induced loss of DNA by 19.1±8.3%. has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
