In silico analysis of cysteine cathepsins identified from the transcriptome profile of blunt snout bream (Megalobrama amblycephala) [PDF]
Cysteine cathepsins are described as lysosomal proteases with housekeeping and highly specialised functions in many organisms. In this study, cysteine cathepsins were identified from the transcriptome profile of blunt snout bream (Megalobrama ...

The Homology Modeling and Docking Investigation of Human Cathepsin B [PDF]
Background: Cathepsin B comprises a group of lysosomal cysteine proteases belonging to the Papain family; it has an intracellular function in the process of protein catabolism, antigen processing in the immune response, and Alzheimer’s disease.

Status and future directions of anti-metastatic cancer nanomedicines for the inhibition of cathepsin L [PDF]
Angiogenesis, tissue invasion and metastasis in the tumour microenvironment are all critical hallmarks of cancer. Upregulation of cathepsin L plays an important role in angiogenesis and metastasis through its ability to degrade the extracellular matrix ...

Human cysteine cathepsins are not reliable markers of infection by Pseudomonas aeruginosa in cystic fibrosis. [PDF]
Cysteine cathepsins have emerged as new players in inflammatory lung disorders. Their activities are dramatically increased in the sputum of cystic fibrosis (CF) patients, suggesting that they are involved in the pathophysiology of CF.

Autophagy is activated and involved in cell death with participation of cathepsins during stress-induced microspore embryogenesis in barley [PDF]
Microspores are reprogrammed towards embryogenesis by stress. Many microspores die after this stress, limiting the efficiency of microspore embryogenesis. Autophagy is a degradation pathway that plays critical roles in stress response and cell death.
