Cathepsin V is a papain-like cysteine protease. It is involved in the control of human T cells (responsible for cell immunity), and presents the largest elastolytic activity among the proteolytic enzymes. Therefore, cathepsin V is a potential molecular target for the treatment of atherosclerosis. In the present work, natural flavonoids were screened against cathepsin V, and two flavones were identified
组织蛋白酶V是一种木瓜蛋白酶样半胱氨酸蛋白酶。它参与人类T细胞的控制(负责细胞免疫),并在蛋白水解酶中表现出最大的弹性。因此,组织蛋白酶V是治疗动脉粥样硬化的潜在分子靶标。在目前的工作中,针对组织蛋白酶V筛选了天然类黄酮,并确定了两种黄酮是组织蛋白酶V的有效抑制剂。基于此结果,在溶液相中使用清道夫试剂制备了查尔酮和黄酮的组合文库,并经过充分评估。
