Involvement of cathepsin B in the plant disease resistance hypersensitive response [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
A diverse range of plant proteases are implicated in pathogen perception and in subsequent signalling and execution of disease resistance. We demonstrate, using protease inhibitors and virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS), that the plant papain cysteine ...

Role of Endogenous Cathepsin L in Muscle Protein Degradation in Olive Flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) Surimi Gel

open access: yesMolecules, 2021
We investigated the effect of endogenous cathepsin L on surimi gel produced from olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus). The amino acid sequences of six proteins predicted or identified as cathepsin L were obtained from the olive flounder genome ...

Cathepsin L is required for ecotropic murine leukemia virus infection in NIH3T3 cells. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Recently it has been reported that a cathepsin B inhibitor, CA-074Me, attenuates ecotropic murine leukemia virus (Eco-MLV) infection in NIH3T3 cells, suggesting that cathepsin B is required for the Eco-MLV infection.

Lack of cathepsin activities alter or prevent the development of lung granulomas in a mouse model of sarcoidosis

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2011
Background Remodeling of lung tissues during the process of granuloma formation requires significant restructuring of the extra-cellular matrix and cathepsins K, L and S are among the strongest extra-cellular matrix degrading enzymes.

Cathepsin B gene disruption induced Leishmania donovani proteome remodeling implies cathepsin B role in secretome regulation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
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.

Identification of semicarbazones, thiosemicarbazones and triazine nitriles as inhibitors of Leishmania mexicana cysteine protease CPB [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Cysteine proteases of the papain superfamily are present in nearly all eukaryotes. They play pivotal roles in the biology of parasites and inhibition of cysteine proteases is emerging as an important strategy to combat parasitic diseases such as sleeping

Expression of Cathepsin L in tumor cells and tumor-associated macrophages in patients with Ewing sarcoma family of tumors: A pilot study

open access: yesIndian Journal of Pathology and Microbiology, 2015
Background: Cysteine protease Cathepsin L is involved in bone remodeling and expressed in activated macrophages. It is highly expressed in metastatic tumor tissue, especially with bone metastases.

Cathepsin L plays a role in quinolinic acid-induced NF-Κb activation and excitotoxicity in rat striatal neurons. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
The present study seeks to investigate the role of cathepsin L in glutamate receptor-induced transcription factor nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) activation and excitotoxicity in rats striatal neurons.

Cloning of a cDNA encoding Schistosoma mansoni cathepsin C and expression in the yeast Pichia pastoris [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
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.
