## Abstract ## Background The caspaseโ3 gene is expressed at significantly lower levels in human hepatocellular carcinomas than in normal hepatocytes. Gene transfer technologies offer the possibility to restore caspaseโ3 gene expression. We explored the interest for cancer gene therapy of a consti
## Abstract Restricted expression of caspaseโ14 in differentiating keratinocytes suggests the involvement of caspaseโ14 in terminal differentiation. We purified active caspaseโ14 from human cornified cells with sequential chromatographic procedures. Specific activity increased 764โfold with a yield
