Omi/HtrA2 Regulates a Mitochondria-Dependent Apoptotic Pathway in a Murine Model of Septic Encephalopathy
Conclusion: Our data indicated that Omi/ HtrA2 regulates a mitochondria-dependent apoptotic pathway in a murine model of septic encephalopathy. Inhibition of Omi/HtrA2 by UCF-101 leads to neuroprotection by inhibiting the cytosolic translocation of Omi/HtrA2 and antagonizing the caspase-dependent apoptosis pathway. Therapeutic interventions that inhibit Omi/HtrA2 translocation or protease activity may provide a novel method to treat SAE.Cell Physiol Biochem 2018;49:2163 –2173
