Description générale

Cathepsin D is an aspartic protease, which is located in lysosomes. It is involved in protein catabolism and maintains hormone and antigen processing. Cathepsin D is implicated in neoplasia and neurodegenerative changes. It regulates lysosomal proteolysis and endogenous fibrinolysis.

Application

Cathepsin D from human liver has been used:
  • in β-secretase activity assay
  • for enzymatic degradation of amyloid β 1-42
  • in microinjection of human foreskin fibroblasts

Actions biochimiques/physiologiques

Cathepsin D is an endosomal-lysosomal aspartic protease implicated in breast cancer metastasis and Alzheimer′s disease. Lysosomal release of cathepsin D has been found to precede cytochrome c release and loss of membrane potential in apoptotic human foreskin fibroblasts. Cathepsin D levels in PC12 cells increase 12 to 24 hours after apoptosis is induced.

Autres remarques

Contains α, β and γ isoenzymes as observed by isoelectric-focusing.

Cathepsin D (CatD) is a lysosomal proteolytic enzyme expressed in almost all tissues and organs. This protease is a multifunctional enzyme responsible for essential biological processes such as cell cycle regulation, differentiation, migration, tissue remodeling, neuronal growth, ovulation, and apoptosis.

Endogenous Peptide Inhibitor of CXCR4 (EPI-X4) is a natural antagonist of the CXC chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4). EPI-X4 is a 16-mer peptide that is released from human serum albumin (HSA) by acidic aspartic proteases such as Cathepsin D and E.
