- Any of a group of proteases that mediate apoptosis
- Caspases, or cysteine-aspartic proteases or cysteine-dependent aspartate-directed proteases are a family of cysteine proteases that play essential roles in apoptosis (programmed cell death), necrosis, and inflammation.
- A type of protein that is involved in apoptosis. Caspases are characterized by their unusual ability to cleave proteins at specific sites. Active caspases can often activate other caspases, leading to a cascade of protein degradation.
