Microglial cathepsin B as a key driver of inflammatory brain diseases and brain aging
Interleukin-1β is a potent proinflammatory cytokine that plays a key role in the pathogenesis of the brain aging and diverse range of neurological diseases including Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, stroke and persistent pain.

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%

Cloning of a cDNA encoding Schistosoma mansoni cathepsin C and expression in the yeast Pichia pastoris [PDF]
The cDNA encoding the proenzyme of cathepsin C from the parasitic helminth Schistosoma mansoni was amplified from a cDNA library using 5’ and 3’ specific primers containing sites for SnaBI and Avrll digestion.

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-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.

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).
