    GlossaryCaspase-9

    Caspase-9 is an enzyme that plays a crucial role in the process of apoptosis, which is the programmed cell death essential for maintaining healthy tissue and organ function. It is activated in response to cellular stress or damage and initiates a cascade of events leading to the orderly dismantling of the cell. This enzyme is also known as Apoptotic protease Mch-6 and is vital for preventing the accumulation of damaged or potentially cancerous cells.
