Background
Caspase-2 is an evolutionarily conserved initiator caspase that localizes to the nucleus, cytosol, and Golgi apparatus, where it exists as an inactive 48 kDa pro-enzyme that is activated by dimerization and subsequent autocatalytic processing in response to genotoxic stress, metabolic dysfunction, or mitotic catastrophe, thereby cleaving a limited set of substrates—including MDM2, Bid, and caspase-3—to trigger either a delayed mitochondrial-apoptotic pathway that is independent of p53 or a direct caspase-3 cascade, while also unexpectedly promoting cell survival and genomic stability in some contexts through non-apoptotic functions such as limiting aneuploidy and enhancing DNA repair, illustrating its dual role as both a tumor suppressor and a context-dependent oncogenic regulator.

Immunohistochemistry
IHC shows positive staining in paraffin-embedded human tonsil. Anti- Caspase-2 antibody was used at 1/500 dilution, followed by a HRP Polymer for Mouse & Rabbit IgG (ready to use). Counterstained with hematoxylin. Heat mediated antigen retrieval with Tris/EDTA buffer pH9.0 was performed before commencing with IHC staining protocol.
IHC shows positive staining in paraffin-embedded human gastric cancer. Anti- Caspase-2 antibody was used at 1/500 dilution, followed by a HRP Polymer for Mouse & Rabbit IgG (ready to use). Counterstained with hematoxylin. Heat mediated antigen retrieval with Tris/EDTA buffer pH9.0 was performed before commencing with IHC staining protocol.
IHC shows positive staining in paraffin-embedded human ovarian cancer. Anti- Caspase-2 antibody was used at 1/500 dilution, followed by a HRP Polymer for Mouse & Rabbit IgG (ready to use). Counterstained with hematoxylin. Heat mediated antigen retrieval with Tris/EDTA buffer pH9.0 was performed before commencing with IHC staining protocol.
