DOI: 10.3390/biom15050743
Abstract: Cathepsins are protease enzymes vital for normal physiological functions, such as digestion, coagulation, hormone secretion, bone resorption, apoptosis, autophagy, and both innate and adaptive immunity. Their altered expression and/or activity is associated with various pathological… read more here.
