Journal ArticleDOI

Isolation and characterization of a novel trypsin-like protease found in rat bronchiolar epithelial Clara cells. A possible activator of the viral fusion glycoprotein.

TL;DR: The results suggest that the enzyme Tryptase Clara is a possible activator of inactive viral fusion glycoprotein in the respiratory tract and thus responsible for pneumopathogenicity of the virus.
Journal ArticleDOI

Involvement of autophagy in trypsinogen activation within the pancreatic acinar cells.

TL;DR: It is found that cytoplasmic vacuoles induced in pancreatic acinar cells by experimental pancreatitis were autophagic in origin, as demonstrated by microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 expression and electron microscopy experiments, and trypsinogen activation was greatly reduced in the absence of autophagy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influenza Virus—Cytokine-Protease Cycle in the Pathogenesis of Vascular Hyperpermeability in Severe Influenza

TL;DR: The influenza virus-cytokine-protease cycle is one of the key mechanisms of vascular hyperpermeability in severe influenza.
