Pericellular activation of hepatocyte growth factor by the transmembrane serine proteases matriptase and hepsin, but not by the membrane-associated protease uPA [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
HGF (hepatocyte growth factor) is a pleiotropic cytokine homologous to the serine protease zymogen plasminogen that requires canonical proteolytic cleavage to gain functional activity.

Identification of Antioxidative Peptides Derived from Arthrospira maxima in the Biorefinery Process after Extraction of C-Phycocyanin and Lipids

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2023
Arthrospira maxima has been identified as a sustainable source of rich proteins with diverse functionalities and bioactivities. After extracting C-phycocyanin (C-PC) and lipids in a biorefinery process, the spent biomass still contains a large proportion

Proteases, Protease-Activated Receptors, and Atherosclerosis [PDF]

open access: yesArteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology, 2018
Coagulation activation by the TF (tissue factor) pathway plays pivotal roles in triggering platelets and precipitating acute coronary syndromes. Although dual antiplatelet therapy is effective in secondary cardiovascular prevention, combining platelet antagonism with low-dose aspirin and the oral coagulation FXa antagonist rivaroxaban has a synergistic

Cysteine proteases in protozoan parasites

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2018
Cysteine proteases (CPs) play key roles in the pathogenesis of protozoan parasites, including cell/tissue penetration, hydrolysis of host or parasite proteins, autophagy, and evasion or modulation of the host immune response, making them attractive ...

A Prototype Assay Multiplexing SARS-CoV-2 3CL-Protease and Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme 2 for Saliva-Based Diagnostics in COVID-19

open access: yesBiosensors, 2023
With the current state of COVID-19 changing from a pandemic to being more endemic, the priorities of diagnostics will likely vary from rapid detection to stratification for the treatment of the most vulnerable patients. Such patient stratification can be
