The Role of Cathepsin B in Peritoneal Fibrosis due to Peritoneal Dialysis
Glucose-containing peritoneal dialysis (PD) solution causes peritoneal fibrosis (PF) characterized by accumulation of extracellular matrix (ECM) in the submesothelial layer.

The Role of Cathepsin D in the Pathophysiology of Heart Failure and its Potentially Beneficial Properties:a translational approach [PDF]
Aims: Cathepsin D is a ubiquitous lysosomal protease that is primarily secreted due to oxidative stress. The role of circulating cathepsin D in heart failure (HF) is unknown.

Immune Mechanisms Involved in Schistosoma mansoni-Cathepsin B Vaccine Induced Protection in Mice
A vaccine against schistosomiasis would contribute to a long-lasting decrease in disease spectrum and transmission. Our previous protection studies in mice using Schistosoma mansoni Cathepsin B (Sm-Cathepsin B) resulted in 59 and 60% worm burden ...

Cathepsin B cleavage of the trypsinogen activation peptide
Background Cathepsin B is thought to play a central role in intrapancreatic trypsinogen activation and the onset of pancreatitis. A recent investigation of the cathepsin B mediated activability of wildtype trypsinogen and their mutations N29I, N29T and ...

Cathepsin B-deficient mice as source of monoclonal anti-cathepsin B antibodies [PDF]
Abstract Cathepsin B has been demonstrated to be involved in several proteolytic processes that support tumor progression and metastasis and neurodegeneration. To further clarify its role, defined monoclonal antibodies are needed.

Peptide synthesis by recombinant Fasciola hepatica cathepsin L1 [PDF]
Synthesis of the tripeptide Z-Phe-Arg-SerNH2 has been accomplished by a recombinant cysteine protease, cathepsin L1 from liver fluke (Fasciola hepatica), using Z-Phe-Arg-OMe as acyl acceptor and SerNH2 as nucleophile in 0.1 M ammonium acetate pH 9.0–12.5%
