Identification of new biomarkers for sarcopenia and characterization of cathepsin D biomarker

open access: yesJCSM Rapid Communications, 2021
Background Sarcopenia is the progressive generalized loss of skeletal muscle mass, strength, and function that occurs with aging. This study was undertaken to identify new biomarkers of sarcopenia by proteomics analysis of female sera.

The Specificity of Cathepsin D

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1973
Abstract Bovine spleen cathepsin D has been partially purified for studies of its specificity. Isoelectric focusing of the purest preparation obtained indicated the presence of three molecular forms having approximately the same specific activity, but differing in their isoelectric points.

Smart, Bio‐Inspired Polymers and Bio‐Based Molecules Modified by Zwitterionic Motifs to Design Next‐Generation Materials for Medical Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Bio‐based and (semi‐)synthetic zwitterion‐modified novel materials and fully synthetic next‐generation alternatives show the importance of material design for different biomedical applications. The zwitterionic character affects the physiochemical behavior of the material and deepens the understanding of chemical interaction mechanisms within the ...

Evaluation of serum cathepsin D concentrations in coronary artery disease

open access: yesIndian Heart Journal, 2018
Background: Coronary artery disease (CAD) cannot be sufficiently explained by the presence of traditional risk factors. Cathepsin D has been proposed to serve as a surrogate marker of atherosclerosis but its alterations in CAD patients have not been ...

The Role of DmCatD, a Cathepsin D-Like Peptidase, and Acid Phosphatase in the Process of Follicular Atresia in Dipetalogaster maxima (Hemiptera: Reduviidae), a Vector of Chagas' Disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In this work, we have investigated the involvement of DmCatD, a cathepsin D-like peptidase, and acid phosphatase in the process of follicular atresia of Dipetalogaster maxima, a hematophagous insect vector of Chagas' disease. For the studies, fat bodies,

Activation of cathepsin D by glycosaminoglycans [PDF]

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, 2009
We have previously shown that heparin can increase the activity of the proenzyme form of Alzheimer’s β‐site amyloid precursor protein cleaving enzyme 1 (BACE1). Cathepsin D (CD) is a member of the aspartic protease family and has sequence similarity to BACE1.
