Cathepsin K (CTSK)

Cathepsin K is a lysosomal cysteine protease involved in bone remodeling and resorption. This protein, which is a member of the peptidase C1 protein family, is predominantly expressed in osteoclasts. Cathepsin K is a protease, which is defined by its high specificity for kinins, that is involved in bone resorption.

The enzyme's ability to catabolize elastin, collagen, and gelatin allow it to break down bone and cartilage. This catabolic activity is also partially responsible for the loss of lung elasticity and recoil in emphysema. Cathepsin K inhibitors, such as odanacatib, show great potential in the treatment of osteoporosis. Cathepsin K expression is stimulated by inflammatory cytokines that are released after tissue injury.
