Cathepsin L in glioma progression: Comparison with cathepsin B
Cancer Detection and Prevention, 2005Lysosomal cysteine cathepsins have been implicated in tumor progression. This study is aimed to reveal differential expression and compare the prognostic significance of cathepsins B and L in glioma patients.The histological slides of 82 patients with primary astrocytic tumors were reviewed.

CATHEPSIN B, CATHEPSIN C AND ARYLAMIDASE IN RABBIT CORNEA
Acta Ophthalmologica, 1982The 3 peptide hydrolases cathepsin B, cathepsin C and arylamidase have been assayed in rabbit cornea with the use of fluorigenic derivatives of β‐naphthylamine. The optimal reaction conditions and kinetic properties are described. The assay procedures which are simple and very sensitive can be used for studying the release of these enzymes from corneal

Cathepsin L, But Not Cathepsin B, Is a Potential Kininogenase
Biological Chemistry, 2001Although papain-like enzymes are strongly inhibited by their natural tight-binding inhibitors of the cystatin superfamily, cathepsins B and L may still retain some residual proteolytic activity toward Z-Phe-Arg-AMC in the presence of an excess of kininogen. This activity is abolished by adding E-64 or chicken cystatin.

Pericellular cathepsin B and malignant progression
Cancer and Metastasis Reviews, 2003Cathepsin B is a lysosomal cysteine protease in normal cells and tissues. In malignant tumors and premalignant lesions, the expression of cathepsin B is highly upregulated and the enzyme is secreted and becomes associated with the cell surface. Increases in expression are mediated at many levels ranging from gene amplification to increased stability of

Cathepsin B is a mammalian cysteine protease. The enzyme has been suggested to participate in the patophysiological processes of keratoconus as well as in the corneal response to infectious agents. This study describes the localization of cathepsin B in the rat eye.Cathepsin B was identified in rat ocular tissues by Western blotting and ...

Cerebrospinal fluid cathepsin B and S
Neurological Sciences, 2012Cathepsins are increased in the brain of elderly animals. We investigate the presence of cathepsin B and S in human cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) plasma and the associations with cystatin C, age and sex. We measured cathepsin B and S concentrations in CSFs from 118 persons, undergoing elective surgical procedures, with ELISA. Both cathepsin B and cathepsin

Entamoeba histolytica: Purification of cathepsin B
Experimental Parasitology, 1985A cytotoxic cysteine proteinase with a molecular weight of 16,000 was isolated from axenically grown trophozoites of Entamoeba histolytica. The enzyme was purified from frozen-thawed strain HM-1 by ion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-cellulose, organomercurial agarose affinity chromatography, and size-exclusion chromatography.

Apoptosis (programmed cell death) is defined by specific biochemical and morphological markers that include chromatin condensation and fragmentation. Evidence is mounting that pathways involving cathepsins may be important for apoptotic cell death. Foghsgaard et al.

Abstract In 1941 Fruton and co-workers [1377] proposed a classification of the proteolytic enzymes of animal tissues in which they included an enzyme that hydrolysed Bz-Arg-NH2, a synthetic substrate of trypsin. At that time, this thiol-dependent enzyme was termed cathepsin II, but the nomenclature was further revised by Tallan et al.
