Kaikki elimistön tumalliset solut tuottavat kystatiini C:tä tasaisella nopeudella, se ei ole akuutin faasin proteiini, eivätkä lihasmassa, sukupuoli ja ravinto vaikuta sen seerumi/plasmapitoisuuteen. Kystatiini C eliminoituu lähes täysin glomerulussuodokseen, josta proksimaalisen tubuluksen solut sen reabsorboivat ja hajottavat.

- Official Full Name

- ARMD11; HEL-S-2
- Summary
- The cystatin superfamily encompasses proteins that contain multiple cystatin-like sequences. Some of the members are active cysteine protease inhibitors, while others have lost or perhaps never acquired this inhibitory activity. There are three inhibitory families in the superfamily, including
- the type 1 cystatins (stefins),
- type 2 cystatins
- the kininogens.
- The type 2 cystatin proteins are a class of cysteine proteinase inhibitors found in a variety of human fluids and secretions, where they appear to provide protective functions. The cystatin locus on chromosome 20 contains the majority of the type 2 cystatin genes and pseudogenes. This gene is located in the cystatin locus and encodes the most abundant extracellular inhibitor of cysteine proteases, which is found in high concentrations in biological fluids and is expressed in virtually all organs of the body. A mutation in this gene has been associated with amyloid angiopathy.
- Expression of this protein in vascular wall smooth muscle cells is severely reduced in both atherosclerotic and aneurysmal aortic lesions, establishing its role in vascular disease. In addition, this protein has been shown to have an antimicrobial function, inhibiting the replication of herpes simplex virus. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding a single protein. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2014]

Location:34 → 144 - CY; Cystatin-like domain. Cystatins are a family of cysteine protease inhibitors that occur mainly as single domain proteins. However some extracellular proteins such as kininogen, His-rich glycoprotein and fetuin also contain these domains.

GeneRIFs: Gene References Into FunctionsWhat's a GeneRIF?
- A high serum cystatin C level and CST3 B allele may be risk factors for vascular cognitive impairment after acute cerebral infarction.
- In patients with STEMI treated by primary PCI, plasma NGAL and cystatin C did not provide additional value regarding contrast induced-acute kidney injury prediction compared with known risk factors such as baseline creatinine.
- Studied serum levels of Cystatin C in singleton and twin pregnancies, both with and without preeclampsia.
- the relationships of cystatin C-based glomerular filtration rate (eGFRcys) and creatinine-based GFR (eGFRcr), as well as their ratio with occurrence of osteoporotic fracture in postmenopausal osteoporotic women, were examined.
- Study showed that serum cystatin C level is an independent prediction biomarker for acute cerebral infarction (ACI) recurrence.
- he similarities between melanoma brain metastasis and stroke with respect to CysC expression by and secretion from microglia cells suggest that CysC may be involved in shared pathways between brain metastasis and post-stroke regeneration. This manifests the tendency of tumor cells to highjack physiological molecular pathways in their progression
- Serum cystatin C and urinary NGAL were found to be predictors of long-term mortality in high-risk patients undergoing percutaneous mitral valve repair.
- Serum cystatin C level was associated with acute kidney injury in patients with acute pancreatitis.
- Serum Cys C is a good marker for detecting AKI [acute kidney injury] in liver cirrhosis, and the different levels of increase in Cys C may be useful in differentiating the different types of AKI.
- Cystatin C plays immune regulatory roles at both cellular and molecular levels including antigen presentation, secretion of cytokines, synthesis of nitric oxide and apoptosis [Review].

Degradome of soluble ADAM10 and ADAM17 metalloproteases.
Scharfenberg F1, Helbig A2et al. Abstract
Disintegrin
and metalloproteinases (ADAMs) 10 and 17 can release the extracellular
part of a variety of membrane-bound proteins via ectodomain shedding
important for many biological functions. So far, substrate
identification focused exclusively on membrane-anchored ADAM10 and
ADAM17. However, besides known shedding of ADAM10, we identified ADAM8
as a protease capable of releasing the ADAM17 ectodomain. Therefore, we
investigated whether the soluble ectodomains of ADAM10/17 (sADAM10/17)
exhibit an altered substrate spectrum compared to their membrane-bound
counterparts. A mass spectrometry-based N-terminomics approach
identified 134 protein cleavage events in total and 45 common substrates
for sADAM10/17 within the secretome of murine cardiomyocytes. Analysis
of these cleavage sites confirmed previously identified amino acid
preferences. Further in vitro studies verified fibronectin, cystatin C,
sN-cadherin, PCPE-1 as well as sAPP as direct substrates of sADAM10
and/or sADAM17. Overall, we present the first degradome study for
sADAM10/17, thereby introducing a new mode of proteolytic activity
within the protease web. KEYWORDS:
