| In vitro |
Z-DEVD-FMK (1–200 μM) inhibits D4-GDI cleavage and apoptosis in a concentration-dependent manner. [1] Z-DEVD-FMK reduces ceramide-induced cardiomyocyte death and significantly inhibits the activation of caspase 3. [3] Z-DEVD-FMK (100μM) attenuates OxyHb-induced cell detachment, reduced caspase-2 and -3 activities, abolishes OxyHb-induced DNA ladders, and prevents OxyHb-induced cleavage of PARP in cultured brain microvessel endothelial cells. [4] Z-DEVD-FMK (100 μM) blocks MPP+-induced increases in caspase-3 enzyme activity. Z-DEVD-FMK dose dependently blocks 6-OHDA-induced apoptotic cell death with IC50 of 18 μM. [5] |

| In vivo | Z-DEVD-FMK, before and after injury, markedly reduces post-traumatic apoptosis, and significantly improved neurological recovery. [2] |
Protocol
| Kinase Assay:[5] |
- Collapse
Caspase activity assay : Caspase-3 and caspase-9 activities are measured using fluorescent-based substrate. After treatment, the cells are resuspended in lysis buffer (50 mM Tris HCl, 1 mM EDTA, and 10 mM EGTA) containing 10 mM digitonin for 20 min at 37°C. Supernatants are treated with either of the fluorogenic substrates Ac-DEVD-AFC for caspase-3 or Ac-LEHD-AFC for caspase-9 for 1 h at 37°C and fluorescence is measured at excitation at 400 nm and emission at 505 nm using a Gemini XS fluorescence plate reade |

Bio Calculators
Molarity Calculator
Calculate the mass, volume or concentration required for a solution. The Selleck molarity calculator is based on the following equation:
Mass (mg) = Concentration (mM) × Volume (mL) × Molecular Weight (g/mol)
*When preparing stock solutions, please always use the batch-specific molecular weight of the product found on the via label and SDS / COA (available on product pages).
Dilution Calculator
Calculate the dilution required to prepare a stock solution. The Selleck dilution calculator is based on the following equation:
Concentration (start) x Volume (start) = Concentration (final) x Volume (final)
This equation is commonly abbreviated as: C1V1 = C2V2 ( Input Output )
* When preparing stock solutions always use the batch-specific molecular weight of the product found on the vial label and SDS / COA (available online).

Definitions of molecular mass, molecular weight, molar mass and molar weight:
Molecular mass (molecular weight) is the mass of one molecule of a substance and is expressed in the unified atomic mass units (u). (1 u is equal to 1/12 the mass of one atom of carbon-12)
Molar mass (molar weight) is the mass of one mole of a substance and is expressed in g/mol.
