Activity-Based Profiling of Papain-like Cysteine Proteases During Late-Stage Leaf Senescence in Barley

open access: yesPlants
Leaf senescence is a developmental process that allows nutrients to be remobilized and transported to sink organs. Previously, papain-like cysteine proteases (PLCPs) have been found to be highly expressed during leaf senescence in different plant species.

Cathepsin L proteases of the parasitic copepod, Lepeophtheirus salmonis

open access: yes, 2012
The salmon louse, Lepeophtheirus salmonis, is a parasitic copepod that feeds on the mucus, skin and blood of salmonids. We describe the identification of two complete L. salmonis cathepsin L-like gene sequences and their molecular characterisation.

Turning Bonding Into Function: The Emerging Role of the Bioactive Selenium─Metal Motif in Toxicology and Medicinal Chemistry

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Balancing Act: Se─M bond serving as the fulcrum of the balance scale to compare the different weight of toxicity and therapeutic effects in biological environment. ABSTRACT The synthesis and characterization of organo‐selenium compounds have attracted considerable interest for decades, driven by the search for efficient catalysts and bioinspired ...

Regional localization of the porcine cathepsin H (CTSH) and cathepsin L (CTSL) genes

open access: yes, 2001
The 3'-untranslated region (3¢-UTR) of the porcine cathepsin H (CTSH) cDNA sequence (EMBL no. AF001169)1 was used to design two polymerase chain reaction (PCR) primers that amplified a 100-bp fragment from pig total genomic DNA.

Characterization of Lysosomal Hydrolases and Transporters and Their Age‐Dependent Variability: Relevance to Drug Metabolism and Transport of Small Molecule and Biologic Drugs

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Lysosomes play a key role in the accumulation, catabolism, and transport of endogenous and exogenous metabolites and proteins and are involved in drug metabolism and prodrug activation. However, the protein abundance and interindividual variability of lysosomal drug‐metabolizing enzymes and transporters (DMETs) remain underexplored.

Peptidomimetic 2-cyanopyrrolidines as potent selective cathepsin L inhibitors

open access: yes, 2008
Cathepsins have been found to have important physiological roles. The implication of cathepsin L in various types of cancers is well established. In a search for selective cathepsin L inhibitors as anticancer agents, a series of 2-cyanoprrolidine ...

Integrative Genomic and Functional Investigation of the Multi‐Layered Genetic Architecture Between Anorexia Nervosa and Bone Loss

open access: yesInternational Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Bone loss is a severe and often irreversible complication of anorexia nervosa (AN), yet the genetic mechanisms underlying this comorbidity remain underexplored. This study focuses on constructing a comprehensive genetic architecture between AN and estimated calcaneal bone mineral density (eBMD).

Gut microbiota‐related modulation of immune mechanisms in post‐infarction remodelling and heart failure

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 942-954, April 2025.
Abstract The immune system has long been recognized as a key driver in the progression of heart failure (HF). However, clinical trials targeting immune effectors have consistently failed to improve patient outcome across different HF aetiologies. The activation of the immune system in HF is complex, involving a broad network of pro‐inflammatory and ...
