High impact information on Cst3

  • We previously demonstrated increased expression of cystatin C, a protease inhibitor linked to both neurodegeneration and neurogenesis, during epileptogenesis in the rat hippocampus [7].
  • In patients with TLE, high cystatin C expression associated with greater numbers of polysialylated neural cell adhesion molecule-positive newborn cells in the molecular layer, although the overall number was decreased, indicating that the newborn cells migrate to abnormal locations in the epileptic dentate gyrus [7].
  • A selective Cat S inhibitor and the endogenous inhibitor cystatin C significantly attenuated SMC invasion across elastin gel [8].
  • Double-labeled fluorescence immunohistochemistry revealed that nigrostriatal neurons, astrocytes, and microglia contributed to the elevated level of cystatin C [2].
  • The results indicate that the 6-OHDA lesioning induced a relatively slow but sustained up-regulation of cystatin C expression and suggest that the inhibitor may exert a neuroprotective action on DA neurons [2].
