Neutrophils have a critical role in the innate immune response to infection and the control of inflammation. A key component of this process is the release of neutrophil serine proteases (NSPs), primarily neutrophil elastase, proteinase 3, cathepsin G ...

Dipeptidyl peptidase-1 inhibitors in bronchiectasis [PDF]
Dipeptidyl peptidase (DPP)-1 (also known as cathepsin C) inhibitors are the first disease-specific therapy shown to be effective in bronchiectasis. The mechanism of action of DPP-1 inhibitors is suppression of activity of neutrophil serine proteases ...

Evolutionary Analysis of Dipeptidyl Peptidase I [PDF]
Human dipeptidyl peptidase I (DPPI) belongs to the family of papain-like cysteine peptidases. Its distinctive features are the unique exclusion domain which enables the eponymous activity and homotetramerization of DPPI, and its dependence on chloride ions for enzymatic activity.

Impact of sitagliptin on endometrial mesenchymal stem-like progenitor cells : a randomised, double-blind placebo-controlled feasibility trial [PDF]
Background: Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) is associated with the loss of endometrial mesenchymal stem-like progenitor cells (eMSC). DPP4 inhibitors may increase homing and engraftment of bone marrow-derived cells to sites of tissue injury.
