GSID: ajxTF4M1weAJ
M Campus, M Flores, A Martinez, F Toldrá - Meat Science, 2008 - Elsevier

The effect of high pressure on sliced and vacuum packaged commercial dry-cured pork loin was determined by analysing the induced colour changes, the residual enzymatic activities of cathepsins, aminopeptidases and dipeptidilpeptidases and the changes in the content of …

Serum cystatin C as a potential biomarker for the evaluation COPD.

Proteases, including matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), tissue serine proteases, and cathepsins (CTS) exhibit numerous functions in tumor biology. Solid tumors are characterized by changes in protease expression levels by tumor and surrounding tissue. Therefore, monitoring protease levels in tissue samples...

Matricryptins Network with Matricellular Receptors at the Surface of Endothelial and Tumor Cells.

Frontiers in pharmacology

PMID: 26869928
Front Pharmacol. 2016 Feb 04;7:11. doi: 10.3389/fphar.2016.00011. eCollection 2016.

The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a source of bioactive fragments called matricryptins or matrikines resulting from the proteolytic cleavage of extracellular proteins (e.g., collagens, elastin, and laminins) and proteoglycans (e.g., perlecan). Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), cathepsins, and bone-morphogenetic protein-1 release...

Antigen expression on recurrent meningioma cells.

INTRODUCTION: Meningiomas are intracranial brain tumours that frequently recur. Recurrence rates up to 20% in 20 years for benign meningiomas, up to 80% for atypical meningiomas and up to 100% for malignant meningiomas, have been reported. The most important...

Cysteine proteases as therapeutic targets: does selectivity matter? A systematic review of calpain and cathepsin inhibitors.

Acta pharmaceutica Sinica. B

Siklos M, BenAissa M, Thatcher GR.
PMID: 26713267
Acta Pharm Sin B. 2015 Nov;5(6):506-19. doi: 10.1016/j.apsb.2015.08.001. Epub 2015 Sep 26.

Cysteine proteases continue to provide validated targets for treatment of human diseases. In neurodegenerative disorders, multiple cysteine proteases provide targets for enzyme inhibitors, notably caspases, calpains, and cathepsins. The reactive, active-site cysteine provides specificity for many inhibitor designs over...

Cysteine cathepsins: their role in tumor progression and recent trends in the development of imaging probes.

Frontiers in chemistry

A variety of destructive enzymes are secreted by pannnus. Prominent among these are the various matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and cathepsins. These enzymes act upon collagen and the proteoglycan matrix, thereby destroying the central structure of articular cartilage. Other destructive...

Immunotoxicity of gallium arsenide on antigen presentation: comparative study of intratracheal and intraperitoneal exposure routes.

Journal of immunotoxicology
