The effects of a plant proteinase inhibitor from Enterolobium contortisiliquum on human tumor cell lines [PDF]
Supplementary to the efficient inhibition of trypsin, chymotrypsin, plasma kallikrein, and plasmin already described by the EcTI inhibitor from Enterolobium contortisiliquum, it also blocks human neutrophil elastase (K(iapp)=4.3 nM) and prevents phorbol ...

Differential in vitro and in vivo effect of barley cysteine and serine protease inhibitors on phytopathogenic microorganisms [PDF]
Protease inhibitors from plants have been involved in defence mechanisms against pests and pathogens. Phytocystatins and trypsin/α-amylase inhibitors are two of the best characterized protease inhibitor families in plants.

Melia azedarach L. extract induced the production of phytocystatin in passion fruit leaves
Phytocystatins belong to the family of cysteine proteinases inhibitors. These proteinase inhibitors have crucial functions in plant defense against insects and pathogens attack. In the present study Melia azedarach L. extract acts as an elicitor of plant

Comparative study of the ability of Leishmania mexicana promastigotes and amastigotes to alter macrophage signalling and functions [PDF]
Leishmania alternates between two morphologically different stages: promastigotes and amastigotes. While the majority of reports focused on how the promastigote form can alter macrophage signalling and function, fewer reports investigated signalling ...

Bacterial expression of human cysteine proteinase inhibitor stefin A [PDF]
Stefin A, a cysteine proteinase inhibitor of the cystatin superfamily, has been found to be most abundant in epidermal cells. In order to determine its cellular function, we have expressed human stefin A in Escherichia coli using plasmid expression ...
