Ac-YVAD-CHO is a potent, selective caspase-1 (ICE) inhibitor that blocks IL-1beta maturation, exhibits anti-inflammatory effects, and inhibits cancer cell growth. Research applications include studying pyroptosis and neuroinflammation, with in vivo studies demonstrating its neuroprotective role in models of striatal apoptosis.
