October 2007 in “Journal of Biological Chemistry” This study concluded that dilated cardiomyopathy in Ctsl-deficient mice is mainly due to the lack of cathepsin L in cardiomyocytes, with additional heart stress from the fur defect.
19 citations
,
March 2017 in “Scientific Reports” This study suggests that the protease HAT-L4 plays a significant role in maintaining epidermal barrier function to prevent body fluid loss, as its absence in mice led to increased fluid loss and higher mortality.

April 2019 in “The journal of immunology/The Journal of immunology” This study found that Malt1, particularly its protease activity, plays a crucial role in maintaining Treg cell function and homeostasis, with its inactivation leading to autoimmune diseases and altered immune responses in mice.
August 2015 in “Free Radical Biology and Medicine” This study suggests a potential link between proteasome function and nucleotide excision repair in animal models with defects in the NER pathway, with implications for ageing.
