Cathepsin H
cathepsin H, CTSH
The protein encoded by this gene is a lysosomal cysteine proteinase important in the overall degradation of lysosomal proteins. It is composed of a dimer of disulfide-linked heavy and light chains, both produced from a single protein precursor. The encoded protein, which belongs to the peptidase C1 protein family, can act both as an aminopeptidase and as an endopeptidase. Increased expression of this gene has been correlated with malignant progression of prostate tumors. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010] (from

Polymorphisms in the CTSH gene may influence the progression of diabetic retinopathy: a candidate-gene study in the Danish Cohort of Pediatric Diabetes 1987 (DCPD1987).
New
Copenhagen, Denmark. In Graefes Arch Clin Exp Ophthalmol, Nov 2015
RESULTS: We found the CTSH/rs3825932 variant (C > T) was associated with reduced risk of progression to proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) (OR [95 % CI] = 0.20 [0.07-0.56],

New
Suzhou, China. In Hum Immunol, Oct 2015
Of the 9 eQTL genes, 6 (TAP2, HLA-DOB, HLA-DQB1, HLA-DQA1, HLA-DRB5 and CTSH) were differentially expressed in type 1 DM-associated related cells.
Chalcones, semicarbazones and pyrazolines as inhibitors of cathepsins B, H and L.
New
India. In Int J Biol Macromol, Sep 2015
cathepsin H [EC 3.4.22.16] and cathepsin L [EC 3.4.22.15] are the most versatile lysosomal cysteine proteases and are responsible for intracellular protein degradation.
Nicotiana benthamiana cathepsin B displays distinct enzymatic features which differ from its human relative and aleurain-like protease.
New
Vienna, Austria. In Biochimie, Aug 2015
For this reason, we have now characterized two major N. benthamiana PLCPs in detail: aleurain-like protease (NbALP) and cathepsin B (NbCathB).
Integration of disease association and eQTL data using a Bayesian colocalisation approach highlights six candidate causal genes in immune-mediated diseases.
New
Cambridge, United Kingdom. In Hum Mol Genet, Jul 2015
Previously published candidate causal genes were over-represented amongst genes exhibiting colocalisation (odds ratio > 1.5), and we identified evidence for colocalisation (posterior odds > 5) between cis eQTLs in at least one cell type and at least one disease for six genes: ADAM15, RGS1, CARD9, LTBR, CTSH and SYNGR1.
2,3-Dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-one derivatives as potential non-peptidyl inhibitors of cathepsins B and H.
New
India. In Bioorg Chem, Apr 2015
In the present work we report the synthesis of some 2,3-dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-ones followed by their evaluation as cysteine protease inhibitors in general and cathepsin B and cathepsin H inhibitors in particular.
Detection of mutations in LRPAP1, CTSH, LEPREL1, ZNF644, SLC39A5, and SCO2 in 298 families with early-onset high myopia by exome sequencing.
Guangzhou, China. In Invest Ophthalmol Vis Sci, 2015
PURPOSE: To evaluate variants in the LRPAP1, CTSH, LEPREL1, ZNF644, SLC39A5, and SCO2 genes in 298 unrelated patients with early-onset high myopia (eoHM).
N-formylpyrazolines and N-benzoylpyrazolines as novel inhibitors of mammalian cathepsin B and cathepsin H.
India. In Bioorg Chem, 2014
After a preliminary screening of the compounds as inhibitors to cysteine proteases in general, studies were carried out to study their inhibitory effects on cathepsin B and cathepsin H. SAR studies show that N-formylpyrazolines were better inhibitors than N-benzoylpyrazolines.
Comparative genomic of the teleost cathepsin B and H and involvement in bacterial induced immunity of miiuy croaker.
Zhoushan, China. In Fish Shellfish Immunol, 2014
In addition, the gene synteny analysis showed that miiuy croaker cathepsin B has a closer relationship to stickleback and fugu than to cave fish and zebrafish, and cathepsin H was most similar with the 2 subtype in tilapia and fugu.
The induction of neuronal death by up-regulated microglial cathepsin H in LPS-induced neuroinflammation.
Dalian, China. In J Neuroinflammation, 2014
However, cathepsin H (Cat H), a cysteine protease, has been far less studied in neuroinflammation, compared to cathepsins B, D, L, and S. The expression patterns and functional roles of Cat H in the brain in neuroinflammation remain unknown.
The autoimmune basis of narcolepsy.
Review
Palo Alto, United States. In Curr Opin Neurobiol, 2013
Genome-wide association studies have strengthened the association between narcolepsy and immune system gene polymorphisms, including the identification of polymorphisms in the T cell receptor alpha locus, TNFSF4 (also called OX40L), Cathepsin H (CTSH) the purinergic receptor P2RY11, and the DNA methyltransferase DNMT1.
Genetic association, seasonal infections and autoimmune basis of narcolepsy.
Review
Palo Alto, United States. In J Autoimmun, 2013
Genome-wide association analysis shows a strong association between narcolepsy and polymorphisms in the TCRα locus and weaker associations within TNFSF4 (also called OX40L), Cathepsin H and the P2RY11-DNMT1 (purinergic receptor subtype P2Y11 to DNMT1, a DNA methytransferase) loci, suggesting an autoimmune basis.
Cathepsin H regulated by the thyroid hormone receptors associate with tumor invasion in human hepatoma cells.
GeneRIF
Taiwan. In Oncogene, 2011
CTSH overexpression in a subset hepatoma may be thyroid hormone receptor dependent and suggests that this overexpression has an important role in hepatoma progression.
Cathepsins are involved in virus-induced cell death in ICP4 and Us3 deletion mutant herpes simplex virus type 1-infected monocytic cells.
GeneRIF
Turku, Finland. In J Gen Virol, 2011
These data indicate that cathepsins B, L and S may act as cell-death mediators in in monocytic cells infected with ICP4 and Us3 deletion mutant herpes simplex virus type 1.
The interactomics of sortilin: an ancient lysosomal receptor evolving new functions.
Review
Montréal, Canada. In Histol Histopathol, 2009
We have demonstrated that the transport of cathepsin D is partially dependent upon sortilin, that cathepsin H requires sortilin, and that cathepsins K and L attain the lysosomes in a sortilin-independent fashion.
Levels of cathepsins S and H in pleural fluids of inflammatory and neoplastic origin.
GeneRIF
Plzeň, Czech Republic. In Int J Biol Markers, 2009
In contrast to cathepsin S, cathepsin H values did not correlate with markers of inflammation, indicating a specific role for cathepsin H in the pleural host response.

Review
Matsudo, Japan. In Brain Nerve, 2007

Expression microarray analysis of brain tumors: what have we learned so far.
Review
Atlanta, United States. In Front Biosci, 2002
These genes include EGFR, VEGF, transcription factor AP-2, insulin growth factor binding proteins 3 and 5, matrix metalloproteinases, tissue inhibitors of matrix metalloproteinases, CD44, basic fibroblast growth factor, and cathepsin H. Finally, novel roles for a few genes, including insulin growth factor binding protein 2 and apolipoprotein D, have been revealed for the first time by expression microarrays.
