Urinary peptidomics analysis reveals proteases involved in diabetic nephropathy [PDF]
Mechanisms underlying the onset and progression of nephropathy in diabetic patients are not fully elucidated. Deregulation of proteolytic systems is a known path leading to disease manifestation, therefore we hypothesized that proteases aberrantly ...

Procathepsin L‐specific antibodies that recognize procathepsin L but not cathepsin L [PDF]
Procathepsin L was purified to apparent homogeneity from the culture medium of v‐Ha‐ras transformed NIH3T3 (Ras‐NIH) cells in three steps; anion‐exchange chromatography, gel nitration, and re‐gel filtration. SDS‐PAGE analyses revealed that the purified samples contained only the precursor form, procathepsin L, but not the mature enzyme, cathepsin L ...

Berberine induces caspase-independent cell death in colon tumor cells through activation of apoptosis-inducing factor [PDF]
Berberine, an isoquinoline alkaloid derived from plants, is a traditional medicine for treating bacterial diarrhea and intestinal parasite infections. Although berberine has recently been shown to suppress growth of several tumor cell lines, information ...

Morphologic and functional correlates of synaptic pathology in the cathepsin D knockout mouse model of congenital neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis [PDF]
Mutations in the cathepsin D (CTSD) gene cause an aggressive neurodegenerative disease (congenital neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis) that leads to early death. Recent evidence suggests that presynaptic abnormalities play a major role in the pathogenesis of

Background: Juvenile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis (JNCL), one of the most frequent forms of the NCL storage diseases, is known to be caused by loss-of-function mutations in ceroid-lipofuscinosis neuronal protein 3 (CLN3), but its cell function has not ...
