Cathepsin D: newly discovered functions of a long-standing aspartic protease in cancer and apoptosisEmmanuelle Liaudet-Coopman
INSERM U540 Endocrinologie Moléculaire et Cellulaire des Cancers, Universite de Montpellier 1, 60 rue de Navacelles, 34090 Montpellier, France
Cancer Lett 237:167-79. 2006..This review summarises our current knowledge on cath-D action in cancer progression and metastasis, as well as its dual function in apoptosis...
Down-regulation of cathepsin-D expression by antisense gene transfer inhibits tumor growth and experimental lung metastasis of human breast cancer cellsMurielle Glondu
INSERM U540 Endocrinologie Moléculaire et Cellulaire des Cancers, Universite de Montpellier 1, 60 rue de Navacelles, 34090 Montpellier, France
Oncogene 21:5127-34. 2002..Our overall results provide the first evidence on the essential role of cathepsin-D in breast cancer, and support the development of a new cathepsin-D-targeted therapy...
Catalytically inactive human cathepsin D triggers fibroblast invasive growthValérie Laurent-Matha
INSERM U540 Endocrinologie Moléculaire et Cellulaire des Cancers, Universite de Montpellier 1, 34090 Montpellier, France
J Cell Biol 168:489-99. 2005..We conclude that cath-D is crucial for fibroblast invasive outgrowth and could act as a key paracrine communicator between cancer and stromal cells, independently of its catalytic activity...
Cathepsin-D affects multiple tumor progression steps in vivo: proliferation, angiogenesis and apoptosisGuy Berchem
Laboratoire d Hémato Cancérologie, Centre Hospitalier de Luxembourg 4, Rue Barble
Oncogene 21:5951-5. 2002..Our overall results provide the first mechanistic evidences on the essential role of cathepsin-D at multiple tumor progression steps, affecting cell proliferation, angiogenesis and apoptosis...
Processing of human cathepsin D is independent of its catalytic function and auto-activation: involvement of cathepsins L and BValérie Laurent-Matha
INSERM, U540, Montpellier, F 34000 France
J Biochem 139:363-71. 2006..We therefore conclude that the mechanism of cath-D maturation involves a fully-assisted processing similar to that of pro-renin...
Cathepsin D overexpressed by cancer cells can enhance apoptosis-dependent chemo-sensitivity independently of its catalytic activityMelanie Beaujouin
Inserm Unit 540, Montpellier, France
Adv Exp Med Biol 617:453-61. 2008..Overall, our results imply that cytosolic CD stimulates apoptotic pathways by interacting with a member of the apoptotic machinery rather than by cleaving specific substrate(s)...
