Characterisation of Cathepsin B and Collagenolytic Cathepsin from Human Placenta [PDF]
1. Human placental cathepsin B and collagenolytic cathepsin were separated by chromatography on columns of Amberlite CG-50. Collagenolytic cathepsin was partially purified by chromatography on DEAE-Sephadex (A-50) and Sephadex G-100. Cathepsin B was purified by chromatography on CM-cellulose and Sephadex G-100. 2.

Cathepsin B Is Implicated in Triglyceride (TG)-Induced Cell Death of Macrophage
Macrophage cell death contributes to the formation of plaque, leading to the development of atherosclerosis. The accumulation of triglyceride (TG) is also associated with the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis.

Cathepsin B gene disruption induced Leishmania donovani proteome remodeling implies cathepsin B role in secretome regulation. [PDF]
Leishmania cysteine proteases are potential vaccine candidates and drug targets. To study the role of cathepsin B cysteine protease, we have generated and characterized cathepsin B null mutant L. donovani parasites. L.

Perineural invasion (PNI) is an ominous event strongly linked to poor clinical outcome. Cells residing within peripheral nerves collaborate with cancer cells to enable PNI, but the contributing conditions within the tumor microenvironment are not well ...

Cathepsin B launches an apoptotic exit effort upon cell death-associated disruption of lysosomes
The release of cathepsin proteases from disrupted lysosomes results in lethal cellular autodigestion. Lysosomal disruption-related cell death is highly variable, showing both apoptotic and necrotic outcomes.

Expression of Cathepsins B, D, and G in WHO Grade I Meningioma
Aim: We have recently demonstrated the presence of putative tumor stem cells (TSCs) in World Health Organization (WHO) grade I meningioma (MG) localized to the microvessels, which expresses components of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS).

Circadian modulation of microglial physiological processes and immune responses
Main Points Microglia are rhythmic cells with an oscillatory expression in clock genes, cytokines, and other microglial markers. Microglial circadian rhythms determine their physiological function and immune responses. Abstract Microglia is considered the central nervous system (CNS) resident macrophages that establish an innate immune response against
