Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** 1. **Cysteine Proteinase Inhibitor:** CST3 is a small cysteine proteinase inhibitor that regulates the activity of various proteases, including cysteine proteases, serine proteases, and aspartic proteases. 2. **Cellular Expression:** CST3 is widely expressed in various cell types, including immune cells, epithelial cells, fibroblasts, and muscle cells. 3. **Multifaceted Functions:** CST3 is involved in multiple signaling pathways, including the regulation of insulin-like growth factor (IGF) transport and uptake, proteolysis, and tissue remodeling. 4. **Regulation of Immune Response:** CST3 is involved in the regulation of immune responses, including the negative regulation of neutrophil degranulation, inflammation, and blood vessel remodeling. **Pathways and Functions:** 1. **Amyloid-Binding Pathway:** CST3 interacts with amyloid-beta peptides, which are associated with Alzheimer's disease, and regulates their aggregation and clearance. 2. **Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) Pathway:** CST3 is involved in the regulation of ER stress and unfolded protein response, which is crucial for maintaining cellular homeostasis. 3. **Protease Regulation Pathway:** CST3 regulates the activity of various proteases, including cysteine proteases, serine proteases, and aspartic proteases, which is essential for maintaining protein homeostasis. 4. **Immune Response Pathway:** CST3 is involved in the regulation of immune responses, including the negative regulation of neutrophil degranulation, inflammation, and blood vessel remodeling. **Clinical Significance:** 1. **Alzheimer's Disease:** CST3 has been implicated in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease, where it interacts with amyloid-beta peptides and regulates their aggregation and clearance. 2. **Inflammatory Disorders:** CST3 is involved in the regulation of inflammation, and its dysregulation has been implicated in various inflammatory disorders, including atherosclerosis and autoimmune diseases. 3. **Cancer:** CST3 has been shown to regulate the activity of various proteases involved in cancer progression, including metastasis and angiogenesis. 4. **Cardiovascular Disease:** CST3 is involved in the regulation of blood vessel remodeling and inflammation, which are critical processes in cardiovascular disease. In conclusion, CST3 is a multifaceted protein that plays a crucial role in regulating various cellular processes, including protein degradation, cell signaling, and immune response. Its dysregulation has been implicated in various human diseases, including Alzheimer's disease, inflammatory disorders, cancer, and cardiovascular disease. Further research is needed to fully elucidate the role of CST3 in human health and disease.
