Cysteine proteinase inhibitors produced by mononuclear phagocytes

Cell and Tissue Research, 1984
Monocytes were separated from human peripheral blood and allowed to attach to culture flasks, after which the content and production of a number of cysteine proteinase inhibitors was assayed. These were: a low molecular weight (MW 12000) acid cysteine proteinase inhibitor (ACPI); a low-molecular weight inhibitor of the same size with neutral pH (NCPI),

Osteoclastogenesis is decreased by cysteine proteinase inhibitors

Bone, 2004
The effects of cystatin C and other cysteine proteinase inhibitors on osteoclast formation and differentiation have been investigated. Cystatin C decreased osteoclast formation stimulated by parathyroid hormone (PTH), 1,25(OH)2-vitamin D3 or interleukin-6 (IL-6) (in the presence of its soluble receptor) as assessed by the number of tartrate-resistant ...

Bombyx Cysteine Proteinase Inhibitor (BCPI) Homologous to Propeptide Regions of Cysteine Proteinases Is a Strong, Selective Inhibitor of Cathepsin L-like Cysteine Proteinases

Journal of Biochemistry, 2001
Bombyx cysteine proteinase inhibitor (BCPI) is a novel cysteine proteinase inhibitor. The protein sequence is homologous to the proregions of certain cysteine proteinases. Here we report the mechanism of its inhibition of several cysteine proteinases.

Cysteine proteinase inhibitors in human squamous cell carcinoma

Acta Histochemica, 1989
Cysteine proteinase inhibitors in Tris extract of human skin squamous cell carcinoma tissue were studied. From 17.2g of the tissue, approximately equal to 113.5 U inhibitor was obtained. With Sephadex G-75 gel chromatography, 3 papain inhibitor peaks of Mr approximately equal to 100,000, 38,000, and 12,000 were separated. In the immunodiffusion studies,

Serum α-cysteine proteinase inhibitor levels in pregnancy

Clinical Biochemistry, 1983
Variation in alpha-cysteine proteinase inhibitor levels in human sera were investigated with special attention to the effect of pregnancy and diseases. The inhibitor level in 111 pregnant women, examined by our previous method, increased as the pregnancy advanced.

Cysteine proteinase inhibitors of the canine intervertebral disc

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Protein Structure and Molecular Enzymology, 1988
Several species of cysteine proteinase inhibitors have been demonstrated in the greyhound intervertebral disc which were resolved into four species (Mr 15,800, 16,600, 17,200 and 17,800) by gelatin-SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Reductive alkylation did not affect their inhibitory capability nor their electrophoretic migration on gelatin-SDS ...

Acid Cysteine Proteinase Inhibitor in Cutaneous Lymphocytic Infiltrates

The American Journal of Dermatopathology, 1995
Acid cysteine proteinase inhibitor (ACPI, cystatin A) is normally present in squamous epithelium and dendritic cells of lymphoid follicles. Its expression is altered both in proliferative and malignant squamous epithelium and in neoplastic lymphoid follicles.

A cysteine proteinase inhibitor purified from apple fruit

Phytochemistry, 1998
A cysteine proteinase inhibitor has been purified from immature fruit of Malus domestica (var. Royal Gala). The M(r) of this apple cystatin is estimated to be 10,700 by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry, 11 300 by SDS-PAGE and 11,000 by gel filtration. It is a relatively strong inhibitor of papain with a Ki value of 0.21 nM and also inhibits ficin and ...
