Cathepsins and neurological diseases: a Mendelian randomization study

Frontiers in Neuroscience
BackgroundThe causal relationship between cathepsins and neurological diseases remains uncertain. To address this, we utilized a two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) approach to assess the potential causal effect of cathepsins on the development of ...

Complementaktivierung durch Cathepsin D

, 2016
Nach einem Polytrauma wird das Complementsystem aktiviert mit Bildung der Anaphylatoxine C3a und C5a. Auch die Apoptose wird induziert, um der generalisierten Entzündung entgegenzuwirken.

Characterization of Lysosomal Hydrolases and Transporters and Their Age‐Dependent Variability: Relevance to Drug Metabolism and Transport of Small Molecule and Biologic Drugs

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Lysosomes play a key role in the accumulation, catabolism, and transport of endogenous and exogenous metabolites and proteins and are involved in drug metabolism and prodrug activation. However, the protein abundance and interindividual variability of lysosomal drug‐metabolizing enzymes and transporters (DMETs) remain underexplored.

Integrative Genomic and Functional Investigation of the Multi‐Layered Genetic Architecture Between Anorexia Nervosa and Bone Loss

International Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Bone loss is a severe and often irreversible complication of anorexia nervosa (AN), yet the genetic mechanisms underlying this comorbidity remain underexplored. This study focuses on constructing a comprehensive genetic architecture between AN and estimated calcaneal bone mineral density (eBMD).

Collagenolytic Cysteine Proteinases of Bone Tissue - Cathepsin-b, (pro)cathepsin-l and a Cathepsin-l-like 70 Kda Proteinase [PDF]

, 1991
The aim of the work was to identify and characterize the cysteine proteinases of bone tissue, as these enzymes appear necessary for bone resorption. Three cysteine-dependent proteolytic activities were separated from a homogenate of mouse calvaria by a ...

MG115 inhibits cathepsin C activity.

, 2014
(A) The cathepsin C assay was performed in the presence of 1 ng recombinant cathepsin C, the cathepsin C substrate Gly-Arg-AMC, and increasing concentrations of MG115 or the cathepsin C inhibitor Gly-Phe-DMK (GF-DMK). Cathepsin C activity was measured by
