Background Information
Cathepsin S (CTSS) is a cysteine protease that plays an important role in extracellular matrix degradation and remodeling, antigen presentation, inflammation, and angiogenesis; it has been identified as a radiation response gene. In malignant tumors, CTSS induces tumor proliferation, invasion and metastasis through various mechanisms. CTSS proteins could be detected in two forms, pro-CTSS (35-37 kDa) and active CTSS (25 kDa) (PMID: 30006610, PMID: 34208434). And in this publication, it was also reporeted that active CTSS was expressed at higher levels than pro-CTSS in the lysate (PMID: 34208434).
