BackgroundSerum pepsinogens are serological biomarkers of gastric atrophy, and the latter is a risk factor for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). However, the association of serum pepsinogens with ESCC risk remains unclear. This systematic review

Rearranging the domains of pepsinogen [PDF]
AbstractMost eukaryotic aspartic protease zymogens are synthesized as a single polypeptide chain that contains two distinct homologous lobes and a pro peptide, which is removed upon activation. In pepsinogen, the pro peptide precedes the N‐terminal lobe (designated pep) and the C‐terminal lobe (designated sin).

Pepsinogens: physiology, pharmacology pathophysiology and exercise
Human gastric mucosa contains aspartic proteinases that can be separated electrophoretically on the basis of their physical properties into two major groups: Pepsinogen I (PGA, PGI); and Pepsinogen II (PGC, PGII).

Immunochemical characterization and cellular localization of pepsinogens in cat and dog.
The antigenic relationships and cellular localization of cat and dog pepsinogens were investigated by electrophoretic analysis, immunodiffusion, immunoelectrophoresis, immunoabsorption, and by immunofluorescence, respectively.
