Caspase-8 is activated by cathepsin D initiating neutrophil apoptosis during the resolution of inflammation
In the resolution of inflammatory responses, neutrophils rapidly undergo apoptosis. We describe a new proapoptotic pathway in which cathepsin D directly activates caspase-8. Cathepsin D is released from azurophilic granules in neutrophils in a caspase-independent but reactive oxygen species–dependen...
