In addition, pretreatment with the caspase-3 inhibitor Ac-DEVD-CHO and the caspase-8 inhibitor Ac-IETD-CHO (25 microM, 8 h) significantly decreased caspase-3 activation following exposure to 1 mM PSP and parathion (p < 0.05).

Recently, we have shown that, at noncholinergic doses (1 to 10 nM), POX (the bioactive metabolite of parathion) causes apoptotic cell death in murine EL4 T-lymphocytic leukemia cell line through activation of caspase-3.
