  • ANTI-APOPTOTIC PROTEIN ANTIBODIES
    Publication number: 20130108690
    Abstract: Single-domain antibodies that bind pro-apoptotic proteins Bax and caspase-3 are identified and isolated. These single-domain antibodies may be used to modulate the activity of Bax and caspase-3, thereby modulating the symptoms and steps of oxidative stress and/or cell apoptosis, including Bax dimerization, mitochondrial permeabilization and the release of apoptotic proteins.
