Cathepsin B inhibition interferes with metastatic potential of human melanoma: an in vitro and in vivo study

BACKGROUND: Cathepsins represent a group of proteases involved in determining the metastatic potential of cancer cells. Among these are cysteinyl- (e.g. cathepsin B and cathepsin L) and aspartyl-proteases (e.g. cathepsin D), normally present inside the lysosomes as inactive proenzymes. Once released...
