Caspase-1, also known as IL-1 beta -converting enzyme (ICE), is an aspartic protease that plays a key role in the inflammatory response and apoptosis. Caspase-1 precursor (about 50kDa) can be cleaved and the active enzyme consists of a complex of two 20 kDa (aa 120-297) and two 10 kDa (aa 317-404) subunits which associate following cleavage of inactive precursors. Caspase-1 is required for proteolytic cleavage of the IL-1 beta precursor to form the active proinflammatory cytokine. Alternate splicing generates several additional Caspase-1 isoforms with deletions in the propeptide regions or also in the mature subunits. Within the large subunit, human Caspase 1 shares 61% aa sequence identity with mouse and rat Caspase-1.

Detection of Human, Mouse, and Rat Caspase‑1 by Western Blot.
Western blot shows lysates of A431 human epithelial carcinoma cell line, NIH-3T3 mouse embryonic fibroblast cell line, and Rat-2 rat embryonic fibroblast cell line. PVDF membrane was probed with 0.1 µg/mL of Mouse Anti-Human Caspase-1 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB6215) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF007). A specific band was detected for Caspase-1 at approximately 45 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 2.Caspase‑1 in THP‑1 Human Cell Line.
Caspase-1 was detected in immersion fixed THP-1 human acute monocytic leukemia cell line using Mouse Anti-Human Caspase-1 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB6215) at 15 µg/mL for 3 hours at room temperature. Cells were stained using the Northern-Lights™ 557-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG Secondary Antibody (yellow; Catalog # NL007) and counterstained with DAPI (blue). Specific staining was localized to cytoplasm. View our protocol for Fluorescent ICC Staining of Non-adherent Cells.Detection of Caspase-1 by Western Blot
NLRP3 was critical to inflammasome activation in response to S. suis P1/7-SLY infection. The THP-1 nlrp3 knockout cell line (THP-1-nlrp3−/−) and its control cell line (THP-1-nlrp3+/+) were primed with LPS and then infected with S. suis strains SC-19, P1/7, P1/7-Vec, P1/7-SLY, P1/7-mSLY or stimulated with ouabain. (A) The cellular proteins and the supernatants of cell cultures were collected for the detection of NLRP3, Casp1, IL-1 beta, and GSDMD via western blot assay. (B) The LDH, IL-1 beta, and TNF-alpha concentrations in the supernatants were also determined (n = 3).

Overexpression of SLY but not mSLY in P1/7 causes hyperactivation of inflammasome. THP-1 cells were primed with LPS and then infected with S. suis strains SC-19, msly (P353L), P1/7-Vec, P1/7-SLY, P1/7-mSLY or stimulated with ouabain. (A) The cellular proteins and the supernatants of the cell cultures were collected for the detection of Casp1, IL-1 beta, and GSDMD by western blot assay. (B) The concentrations of LDH, IL-1 beta, and TNF-alpha in the supernatants of THP-1 cells were detected (n = 3).
