Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** Granzyme H is a 25-kDa protein that belongs to the granzyme family, characterized by its serine protease activity. It is predominantly expressed in effector cells, including alpha-beta T cells, gamma-delta T cells, and NK cells, which are essential for the immune response against pathogens and tumor cells. Granzyme H is also found in terminally differentiated cells, such as CD8-positive T cells, and is involved in the regulation of various cellular processes, including apoptosis, cell killing, and protein metabolism. **Pathways and Functions:** Granzyme H is involved in several key pathways, including: 1. **Apoptotic process:** Granzyme H, in conjunction with other cytotoxic molecules, such as perforin, mediates the induction of apoptosis in target cells. 2. **Cytolytic granule:** Granzyme H is stored in cytolytic granules, which are released upon cell activation, allowing for the elimination of infected cells and tumor cells. 3. **Proteolysis:** Granzyme H cleaves specific substrates, including proteins and peptides, leading to the disruption of cellular homeostasis and the induction of apoptosis. 4. **Regulation of insulin-like growth factor (IGF) transport and uptake:** Granzyme H has been implicated in the regulation of IGF transport and uptake by insulin-like growth factor binding proteins (IGFBPs), which is essential for the maintenance of cellular homeostasis. **Clinical Significance:** Granzyme H's dysregulation has been implicated in various immune-mediated diseases, including: 1. **Autoimmune disorders:** Abnormal expression of Granzyme H has been observed in autoimmune diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis and lupus, where it contributes to tissue damage and inflammation. 2. **Cancer:** Granzyme H's role in tumor cell elimination has been exploited in cancer immunotherapy, where it is used to target and kill cancer cells. 3. **Viral infections:** Granzyme H's involvement in the regulation of viral replication and immune response has been studied in the context of viral infections, such as HIV and herpes simplex virus. In conclusion, Granzyme H is a multifunctional protein that plays a critical role in the regulation of various cellular processes, including apoptosis, cytotoxicity, and metabolism. Its dysregulation has been implicated in various immune-mediated diseases, highlighting the importance of Granzyme H in maintaining immune homeostasis and preventing disease. Further research is needed to fully elucidate the mechanisms underlying Granzyme H's functions and its potential as a therapeutic target.
