酶在人体内的状态决定了正常的生理或病理,所以这六类酶都至关重要。蛋白酶,水解酶,可以有几种类型的基础上亲核氨基酸或金属辅因子所需的活动。组织蛋白酶是具有丝氨酸、半胱氨酸或天冬氨酸残基作为亲核试剂的蛋白酶,其对于消化、凝血、免疫应答、脂肪生成、激素释放、肽合成以及一系列其他功能至关重要。但炎症状态从根本上影响了他们的正常作用。从溶酶体释放,它们降解细胞外基质蛋白,如胶原蛋白和弹性蛋白,介导寄生虫感染,自身免疫性疾病,肿瘤转移,心血管问题和神经变性,以及其他健康危害。多年来,组织蛋白酶的不同类型和亚型,它们的最佳pH和功能已经被研究,但许多信息仍然是难以捉摸的。通过驯服和利用组织蛋白酶,通过抑制剂和明智的生活方式,可以解决一系列恶性肿瘤。这篇综述讨论了这些方面,这可能是临床相关性。
The state of enzymes in the human body determines the normal physiology or pathology, so all the six classes of enzymes are crucial. Proteases, the hydrolases, can be of several types based on the nucleophilic amino acid or the metal cofactor needed for their activity. Cathepsins are proteases with serine, cysteine, or aspartic acid residues as the nucleophiles, which are vital for digestion, coagulation, immune response, adipogenesis, hormone liberation, peptide synthesis, among a litany of other functions. But inflammatory state radically affects their normal roles. Released from the lysosomes, they degrade extracellular matrix proteins such as collagen and elastin, mediating parasite infection, autoimmune diseases, tumor metastasis, cardiovascular issues, and neural degeneration, among other health hazards. Over the years, the different types and isoforms of cathepsin, their optimal pH and functions have been studied, yet much information is still elusive. By taming and harnessing cathepsins, by inhibitors and judicious lifestyle, a gamut of malignancies can be resolved. This review discusses these aspects, which can be of clinical relevance.
