To ensure successful feeding tick saliva contains a number of inhibitory proteins that interfere with the host immune response and help to create a permissive environment for pathogen transmission. Among the potential targets of the salivary cystatin

Dendritic cells (DC) play a pivotal role as antigen presenting cells (APC) and their maturation is crucial for effectively eliciting an antigen-specific immune response. The p41 splice variant of MHC class II-associated chaperone, called invariant ch

Alternative functions, apart from cathepsins inhibition, are being discovered for stefin B. Here, we investigate its role in vesicular trafficking and autophagy. Astrocytes isolated from stefin B knock-out (KO) mice exhibited an increased level of pr

L-leucyl-leucine methyl ester (LLOMe) is a lysosomotropic detergent, which was evaluated in clinical trials in graft-vs-host disease because it very efficiently killed monocytic cell lines. It was also shown to efficiently trigger apoptosis in cancer

EPM1 is a rare progressive myoclonus epilepsy accompanied by apoptosis in the cerebellum of patients. Mutations in the gene of stefin B (cystatin B) are responsible for the primary defect underlying EPM1. Taking stefin B aggregates as a model we aske

The contribution of individual cysteine cathepsins as positive mediators of programmed cell death is dependent on several factors, such as the type of stimuli, intensity and duration of the stimulus, and cell type involved. Of the eleven human cystei

Background. Protein aggregation is a major contributor to the pathogenic mechanisms of human neurodegenerative diseases. Mutations in the CSTB (cystatin B) gene [StB (stefin B)] cause EPM1 (progressive myoclonus epilepsy of type 1), an epilepsy syndr

Cysteine proteases (cathepsins) play a pivotal role in various physiological processes, as well as in several diseases. In the immune response, maturation of major histocompatibility class II (MHC II) molecules and processing of antigens for further

The concentration of cysteine protease inhibitor cystatin C was determined in sera from 59 patients with non-Hodgkin B-cell lymphoma using ELISA. The sera from 43 age and sex matched healthy blood donors served as controls. Cystatin C was significant
