Early diagnosis of Trichinella spiralis and Trichinella nativa: Expression of the serine protease gene at the invasive intestinal and muscular larva stages [PDF]
Background and Aim: Diagnosis of trichinellosis at the intestinal stage during larval development is the primary challenge in the early detection and treatment of trichinellosis. The use of serine protease as a diagnostic marker for serological tests has

Disruption of the c‐terminal serine protease domain of Fam111a does not alter calcium homeostasis in mice [PDF]
FAM111A gene mutations cause Kenney–Caffey syndrome (KCS) and Osteocraniostenosis (OCS), conditions characterized by short stature, low serum ionized calcium (Ca2+), low parathyroid hormone (PTH), and bony abnormalities. The molecular mechanism mediating

Dual function of a bee venom serine protease: prophenoloxidase-activating factor in arthropods and fibrin(ogen)olytic enzyme in mammals. [PDF]
Bee venom contains a variety of peptides and enzymes, including serine proteases. While the presence of serine proteases in bee venom has been demonstrated, the role of these proteins in bee venom has not been elucidated.

Novel inhibitors and activity-based probes targeting serine proteases
Serine proteases play varied and manifold roles in important biological, physiological, and pathological processes. These include viral, bacterial, and parasitic infection, allergic sensitization, tumor invasion, and metastasis. The use of activity-based

The epidermolytic toxins are serine proteases [PDF]
Certain strains of Staphylococcus aureus usually belonging to phage group II produce epidermolytic toxins (ETA and ETB) which cause intraepidermal splitting in mice, neonates and occasionally adults. Amino acid sequences of ETA and ETB have been reported but the mechanism of epidermolysis remains unknown.

Serine proteases, their inhibitors and allergy [PDF]
This paper reviews four serine protease inhibitors and three protease gene defects that are associated with allergic conditions, suggesting an important role for these genes and their products in the development of allergy. Serine protease inhibitors may have a therapeutic potential in the treatment of allergy.

Serine Proteases in Rodent Hippocampus [PDF]
Brain serine proteases are implicated in developmental processes, synaptic plasticity, and in disorders including Alzheimer's disease. The spectrum of the major enzymes expressed in brain has not been established previously. We now present a systematic study of the serine proteases expressed in adult rat and mouse hippocampus.

Alveolar macrophages play a key role in cockroach-induced allergic inflammation via TNF-α pathway. [PDF]
The activity of the serine protease in the German cockroach allergen is important to the development of allergic disease. The protease-activated receptor (PAR)-2, which is expressed in numerous cell types in lung tissue, is known to mediate the cellular ...
