Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** CEL A2B, also known as chymotrypsin-like elastase 2B, is a serine protease belonging to the chymotrypsin-like elastase family. It is primarily expressed in retinal cells, including amacrine cells, Mueller cells, ON-bipolar cells, retinal ganglion cells, OFF-bipolar cells, retinal horizontal cells, progenitor cells, retinal cone cells, retinal bipolar neurons, and retinal rod cells. The expression of CELA2B is widespread in the retina, suggesting its critical role in maintaining retinal function and homeostasis. **Pathways and Functions:** CEL A2B is involved in various cellular processes, including proteolysis, protein binding, and extracellular space regulation. As a serine protease, CELA2B catalyzes the cleavage of peptide bonds in proteins, which is essential for regulating protein function, signaling, and homeostasis in retinal cells. The protein binding capabilities of CELA2B enable it to interact with other proteins, modulating their activity and function. Moreover, CELA2B plays a role in regulating the extracellular space, influencing the movement and function of retinal cells. **Clinical Significance:** The discovery of CELA2B's role in the retina has significant implications for the understanding and treatment of retinal diseases. CEL A2B's involvement in proteolysis and protein binding suggests its potential role in regulating the function of retinal cells, which could be disrupted in diseases such as retinitis pigmentosa, age-related macular degeneration, and diabetic retinopathy. Furthermore, CELA2B's expression in retinal progenitor cells implies its potential role in retinal development and regeneration. Our research highlights the importance of CELA2B in maintaining retinal homeostasis and suggests its potential as a therapeutic target for the treatment of retinal diseases. Further studies are necessary to elucidate the mechanisms by which CELA2B regulates retinal function and to explore its potential as a therapeutic agent. **Conclusion:** In conclusion, CELA2B is a novel chymotrypsin-like elastase that plays a crucial role in maintaining retinal homeostasis. Its expression in retinal cells and involvement in proteolysis, protein binding, and extracellular space regulation suggest its critical function in regulating retinal cell function and homeostasis. Further research is necessary to fully understand the mechanisms by which CELA2B regulates retinal function and to explore its potential as a therapeutic agent for the treatment of retinal diseases.
