CTSK - Cathepsin K

Type: Lysosomal cysteine protease / collagenase

Function: Cathepsin K is a papain-family lysosomal cysteine protease with potent collagenolytic and elastolytic activity. It is highly expressed in osteoclasts and plays a major role in degradation of type I collagen and other extracellular-matrix proteins during bone resorption. CTSK also participates in extracellular-matrix remodeling, inflammatory signaling, epithelial-mesenchymal transition, and interactions between tumor cells and the bone microenvironment.

Cancer: ↑ Frequently increased or activated in cancer cells, osteoclasts, and cells of the tumor microenvironment. Elevated CTSK promotes extracellular-matrix degradation, tumor-cell migration and invasion, epithelial-mesenchymal transition, angiogenesis, osteolytic bone destruction, and establishment of bone metastases. CTSK inhibition can suppress invasion, bone resorption, and tumor progression in preclinical models.

- Review, Var, NA
*BioAv↝, through different routes of administrations, including intravenously (IV), via hypodermic (IH) or intraperitoneal (IP) injection, and orally, have indicated that ISL exhibits a robust absorption capacity (absorption rate: ~60–90 min; oral absorptio
*BBB↓, ISL distribution mainly relies on the blood circulation, with the brain showing the lowest level of ISL due to the blood–brain barrier (BBB)
*BioAv↑, To improve solubility, enhancing its bioavailability and distribution, encapsulated ISL nanoparticles or nano-ISL have been developed.
selectivity↑, A selective cytotoxicity effect of ISL has been reported (Table 2 and Table 3), and the effective dose in tumor cell lines shows very little cytotoxic effect on normal cells.

ChemoSen↑, ISL not only inhibits cancer cell growth by inducing apoptosis and autophagy, but can also enhance chemosensitivity
CSCs↓, ISL can interact synergistically with these first-line chemotherapy drugs through mediating cell death (apoptosis) and autophagy and suppressing breast CSCs
