CASP3 and Cerebral ischemia: Antiapoptotic activity of TFF3 was reported in cerebral ischemia.22 We therefore evaluated the capacity of TFF3(C57Acm) and TFF3 homodimer to reduce etoposide-induced celldeath, by inhibiting caspase-3/7, in a neuroblastoma cell line (SH-SY5Y).TFF3(C57Acm) and TFF3 homodimer (10 μM) induced astatistically significant (p < 0.05) reductionin cell death (Figure 3A).
