Tumor detection by imaging proteolytic activity.
The cell surface protease membrane-type serine protease-1 (MT-SP1), also known as matriptase, is often upregulated in epithelial cancers. We hypothesized that dysregulation of MT-SP1 with regard to its cognate inhibitor hepatocyte growth factor activator inhibitor-1 (HAI-1), a situation that increases proteolytic activity, might be exploited for imaging purposes to differentiate malignant from ...
متن کاملMolecular detection of proteolytic activity of human parechovirus 2A protein by gene expression
Parechoviruses form one of the nine genera in the picornaviridae family, and include two human pathogens: Human parechovirus type1 and 2 (Hpev1 and Hpev2). The genome of picornaviruses encodes a single polyprotein, which undergoes a cleavage cascade performed by virus encoded proteases to give the final virus proteins. The primary cleavage occurs by 2A protein and this step is critical for vi...
متن کاملDetection of proteolytic activity by fluorescent zymogram in-gel assays.
Proteases are involved in the regulation of many biological functions. This study describes a novel method for detecting protease activity by fluorescent zymogram in-gel protease assays, using SDS polyacrylamide gels copolymerized with a peptide-MCA (4-methyl-coumaryl-7-amide) substrate. This method allows simultaneous determination of protease cleavage specificity and molecular weight. Trypsin...

متن کاملEstrogen receptor and proteolytic activity in human breast tumor nuclei.
We have previously found that human breast cancer cells in tissue culture contain estrogen receptor in their nuclei despite the absence of estrogen. We have now investigated solid human breast cancer biopsies and find that proteolytic activities in extracts from the nuclear pellets of these biopsies interfere with or prevent the measurement of nuclear estrogen receptor when the protamine assay ...
