Increased antiprotease activity of the SERPINB3 polymorphic variant SCCA-PD

Abstract: SERPINB3 has been found in chronic liver damage and hepatocellular carcinoma, but not in normal liver. By direct mRNA sequencing, a new SERPINB3 polymorphism (SCCA-PD) has been identified, presenting the substitution Gly351Ala in the reactive center loop of the protein. The prevalence of the SCCA-PD isoform has been found to be significantly higher in patients with cirrhosis than in patients with chronic liver disease and in normal subjects. The aim of this study was to investigate the biological and functiona… Show more

“…The inhibitory effect of SerpinB3 on calpain was examined using the commercially available Calpain activity assay Kit (Calbiochem, Merk Millipore, Darmstadt, Germany) that utilizes the Suc-LLVY-AMC as synthetic substrate. Inhibition experiments were performed using different amounts of human recombinant SerpinB3 protein 52 (range 0–20 nmol/L). 60μl of human calpain 1 (100 nmol/L) was mixed with increasing amounts of inhibitor (SerpinB3) in presence of 60μl of substrate at 1:100 dilution.…”

“…The prevalence of SCCA-PD was 24% in the normal population, while in patients with cirrhosis it was 45%, supporting the hypothesis of a higher contribution of this isoform to liver disease progression. In addition, the specific amino acid change detected in the reactive center of this SNP might confer a different biological behavior to the serpin improving the antiprotease activity of SERPINB3 [47]. …”
