Increased glucose metabolism in TAMs fuels O-GlcNAcylation of lysosomal Cathepsin B to promote cancer metastasis and chemoresistance

open access: yesCancer Cell, 2022
How glucose metabolism remodels pro-tumor functions of tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) needs further investigation. Here we show that M2-like TAMs bear the highest individual capacity to take up intratumoral glucose.

Cathepsin B Is Required for NLRP3 Inflammasome Activation in Macrophages, Through NLRP3 Interaction

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020
The mechanisms leading to NOD-leucine rich repeat and pyrin containing protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome activation are still debated. It is well established that oligomerized NLRP3 interacts with apoptosis associated Speck-like protein containing a CARD ...

Cathepsin B is an executioner of ferroptosis.

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Cell Research, 2020
Ferroptosis is a necrotic form of cell death caused by inactivation of the glutathione system and uncontrolled iron-mediated lipid peroxidation.

Cathepsin B [PDF]

open access: yesDefinitions, 2020
Cathepsin B (339 aa, ~38 kDa) is encoded by the human CTSB gene. This protein plays a role in proteolysis, immunity and the regulation of apoptosis.

Running-Induced Systemic Cathepsin B Secretion Is Associated with Memory Function

open access: yesCell Metabolism, 2016
SUMMARY Peripheral processes that mediate beneficial effects of exercise on the brain remain sparsely explored. Here we show that a muscle secretory factor, Cathepsin B (CTSB) protein, is important for cognitive benefits of running.

Cathepsin B in human peripheral blood lymphocytes as a peripheral biomarker for cardiac hypertrophy [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
Previous studies have demonstrated that cathepsin B is up-regulated in the myocardium of both mice and humans with pathological cardiac hypertrophy. However, it remains unknown whether cathepsin B is detectable in human peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBLs)

Cathepsin B as a cancer target [PDF]

open access: yesExpert Opinion on Therapeutic Targets, 2013
Cathepsin B is of significant importance to cancer therapy as it is involved in various pathologies and oncogenic processes in humans. Numerous studies have shown that abnormal regulation of cathepsin B overexpression is correlated with invasive and metastatic phenotypes in cancers.

Cathepsin B: Multiple roles in cancer

open access: yesProteomics - Clinical Applications, 2014
Proteases, including intracellular proteases, play roles at many different stages of malignant progression. Our focus here is cathepsin B, a lysosomal cysteine cathepsin.

Cathepsin B, Cathepsin H, Cathepsin X and Cystatin C in Sera of Patients with Early-Stage and Inflammatory Breast Cancer

open access: yesInternational Journal of Biological Markers, 2008
Numerous studies have linked cathepsins and their inhibitor cystatin C to tumor invasion and metastasis. We examined whether cathepsin B, cathepsin H, cathepsin X and cystatin C could be detected in sera from women with early-stage or inflammatory breast
