Target Information
Cystatin-A is an intracellular inhibitor of thiol proteinases. Research indicates that CSTA supports normal cell-to-cell adhesion by inhibiting the activity of cysteine proteases, such as cathepsin B. The loss or dysfunction of CSTA results in reduced cell-to-cell adhesion, leading to skin barrier defects and related diseases. In a mouse model of spontaneous breast cancer, CSTA expression is inversely correlated with the potential for tumor metastasis, and high levels of CSTA expression can significantly hinder distant metastasis. In a mouse model of lung adenocarcinoma, macrophage populations enriched with CSTA may exert an anti-tumor effect by inhibiting malignant transformation.
