How it's used

〜たからには attaches to the plain past form (引き受けたからには) and means 'now that / since I have done X'; it is followed by resolve, obligation, or advice, which is exactly what 最後まで責任を持つ expresses. からして means 'judging from' or 'even' and describes a noun, not a completed action the speaker is committed to. からといって introduces 'just because ~' and must lead into a denial like 〜わけではない, so it cannot precede an affirmative pledge. からこそ means 'precisely because' and merely emphasizes why a fact holds, not the personal obligation that flows from having accepted a task.
