Digestion of proteoglycans in porcine pancreatic elastase-induced emphysema in rats.

European Respiratory Journal, 1995
Pulmonary emphysema was induced in rats by a single intratracheal instillation of pancreatic elastase. The short-term effects of elastase instillation on basement membrane components were evaluated using immunohistochemical and biochemical methods.

Protective effects of neutrophil serine protease inhibition against ischemia–reperfusion injury in lung or heart transplantation

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
A major complication of organ transplantation is primary graft dysfunction, which represents the leading cause of early post‐transplantation morbidity and mortality. Pre‐operative depletion of neutrophil serine proteases in circulating neutrophils by pretreatment with a cathepsin C inhibitor in recipients could prevent early post‐operative ...

Cellular interactions in the tumor microenvironment: the role of secretome [PDF]

, 2019
Over the past years, it has become evident that cancer initiation and progression depends on several components of the tumor microenvironment, including inflammatory and immune cells, fibroblasts, endothelial cells, adipocytes, and extracellular matrix ...

Pancreatic Elastase 1 in Feces of Preterm and Term Infants

Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition - JPGN, 2001
Background Determination of fecal pancreatic elastase 1 (E1) is a reliable and noninvasive test of exocrine pancreatic function. Adult reference values of greater than 200 &mgr;g E1/g feces do not seem to be applicable to early infancy because of ...

Inflammation and epithelial–mesenchymal transition in a CFTR‐depleted human bronchial epithelial cell line revealed by proteomics and human organ‐on‐a‐chip

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Proteomic analysis of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator knockout (CFTR‐KO) clones of 16HBE14o‐ cells showed altered pathways linked to inflammation, polymorphonuclear leukocyte (neutrophil) recruitment, and epithelial–mesenchymal transition.

Gasdermins: multifunctional effectors of membrane permeabilization across cellular compartments

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Gasdermins (GSDMs) are pore‐forming proteins best known for driving pyroptosis through plasma membrane (PM) permeabilization. Beyond triggering inflammatory cell death, GSDMs can also associate with organelle membranes, including mitochondria, lysosomes, ER, and nucleus, where they modulate membrane integrity and cellular signaling.

Glycosaminoglycans and Glycosaminoglycan Mimetics in Cancer and Inflammation [PDF]

, 2019
Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) are a class of biomolecules expressed virtually on all mammalian cells and usually covalently attached to proteins, forming proteoglycans.

Pathophysiology of acute experimental pancreatitis: Lessons from genetically engineered animal models and new molecular approaches [PDF]

, 2005
The incidence of acute pancreatitis is growing and worldwide population-based studies report a doubling or tripling since the 1970s. 25% of acute pancreatitis are severe and associated with histological changes of necrotizing pancreatitis. There is still
