caspase-8 p18 Antibody (G-1): sc-166596

caspase-8 p18 Antibody (G-1) is a mouse monoclonal IgG2b kappa light chain antibody that detects the p18 subunit and precursor of caspase-8 in mouse, rat, and human samples through applications such as western blotting (WB), immunoprecipitation (IP), immunofluorescence (IF), immunohistochemistry, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). anti-caspase-8 antibody (G-1) is available in both non-conjugated and various conjugated forms, including agarose, horseradish peroxidase (HRP), phycoerythrin (PE), fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC), and multiple Alexa Fluor® conjugates. caspase-8 protein plays a crucial role in the apoptotic pathway, acting as an initiator caspase that activates downstream effector caspases by cleaving their inactive forms. This activation is essential for the programmed cell death process, particularly in response to signals from tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily members such as TNFRSF1A and TNFRSF6/FAS. caspase-8 forms a complex with the adaptor molecule FADD, leading to the formation of the death-inducing signaling complex (DISC), which is pivotal for its activation. The active caspase-8 protein, a heterodimer composed of the p18 and p10 subunits, is predominantly expressed in peripheral blood leukocytes, thymus, liver, and spleen. Mutations in the CASP8 gene, which encodes for caspase-8, can result in caspase-8 deficiency disorder (CASP8D), a condition characterized by splenomegaly and impaired apoptosis of peripheral blood leukocytes, potentially leading to immunodeficiency due to compromised activation of T lymphocytes, natural killer cells, and B lymphocytes.
