Anti Cathepsin Antibody In Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
Al-Mustansiriyah Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2013 Antineutrophil cytoplasmic autoantibodies (ANCA) were found in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Cathepsin G was the major target antigen.

Targeting cathepsin G in myeloid leukemia [PDF]
OncoImmunology, 2013 Cathepsin G (CG) is a serine protease normally found within the azurophil granules of neutrophils. CG is expressed during the early stages of normal myeloid differentiation and-aberrantly-by myeloid leukemia cells. We have recently identified CG-derived HLA-A*0201-binding peptides that constitute promising targets for the immunotherapy of myeloid ...

Listericidal activity of human neutrophil cathepsin G [PDF]
Journal of General Microbiology, 1990 We demonstrate that cathepsin G, derived from human neutrophils, exhibits potent in vitro antimicrobial activity against Listeria monocytogenes. Cathepsin G listericidal activity was by a non-enzymic mechanism and was dependent on the cationic nature of the molecule.

The role and mechanism of cathepsin G in dermatomyositis
Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy, 2017 Dermatomyositis (DM) is an idiopathic inflammatory myopathy characterized by CD4+ T cells and B cells infiltration in perivascular and muscle tissue. Although the infiltration of inflammatory cells plays a key role in muscle damage, the exact mechanism is not clear.

Expression of Cathepsins B, D, and G in Infantile Hemangioma [PDF]
Frontiers in Surgery, 2015 The role of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) in the biology of infantile hemangioma (IH) represents an emerging paradigm, particularly the involvement of renin, angiotensin converting enzyme, and angiotensin II. This study investigated the expression of cathepsins B, D, and G, enzymes that may modulate the RAS, in IH.The expression of cathepsins B, D,

Polymorphisms of candidate genes associated with feed efficiency and growth traits in commercial crossbred pigs [PDF]
Songklanakarin Journal of Science and Technology (SJST), 2019 Feed efficiency is an important trait in the swine industry, but it is difficult to measure individually for genetic improvement. A total of 184 commercial pigs (50% Duroc, 25% Large White, and 25% Landrace) were collected for blood and genotyped.
