Cross-talk between the calpain and caspase-3 proteolytic systems in the diaphragm during prolonged mechanical ventilation

OBJECTIVE: Diaphragmatic weakness, due to both atrophy and contractile dysfunction, is a well-documented response following prolonged mechanical ventilation (MV). Evidence indicates that activation of the proteases calpain and caspase-3 are essential for MV-induced diaphragmatic weakness to occur. W...
