General description

Gamma-secretase is a protein complex containing presenilin, nicastrin, APH-1, and PEN-2. The leupeptin analogue Z-Leu-Leu-Nle-al (N-benzyloxycarbonyl-Leu-Leu-norleucinal; Benzyloxicarbonyl-Leu-Leu-Nle-CHO (LLNle)) and closely related peptides are used as protease and a gamma secretase inhibitors.

Application

γ Secretase Inhibitor has been used to study the suppressive miR-129 functions through inhibition on estrogen receptor 1 (ESR1) and NOTCH signaling in breast cancer stem cells.

Immunomodulatory activities of human mesenchymal stromal /stem cells (hMSCs) has been widely recognized as the most critical function of hMSCs for exerting its therapeutic effects. However, the detailed mechanisms responsible for regulating the immunomodulation of hMSCs still remain largely unknown.

The premature-ageing disease Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome (HGPS) is caused by constitutive production of progerin, a mutant form of the nuclear architectural protein lamin A. Progerin is also expressed sporadically in wild-type cells and has been linked to physiological ageing. Cells
