Western blot analysis of extracts from HepG2 (lane 2(20μg) and HepG2(lane 3(40μg) using Cathepsin B (HY-P80383) Rabbit mAb. Proteins were transferred to a PVDF membrane and blocked with 5% non-fat milk in TBST for 2 hour at room temperature. The primary antibody (1/1000) and Loading control antibody (Beta Actin, HY-P80438, 1/10000) was used in 5% non-fat milk in TBST at 4°C overnight. Goat Anti-Mouse/Rabbit IgG-HRP Secondary Antibody (1/10000) was used for 1 hour at room temperature.

Immunocytochemistry analysis of RAW264.7 cells labeling Cathepsin B Antibody (HY-P80383) at 1/50 dilution. Cells were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde for 15 minutes at room temperature, permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 for 10 minutes at room temperature, then blocked with BSA for Immunol Staining for 10 min at room temperature. Cells were then incubated with Cathepsin B Antibody (HY-P80383) dilution in BSA for Immunol Staining at 4 ℃overnight. AF488-conjugated AffiniPure Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L(HY-P8002, Green) was used as the secondary antibody at 1/1,000 dilution. PBS instead of the primary antibody was used as the secondary antibody only control. The Nuclear counterstain was DAPI (Blue).

Background

Function
Cathepsin B (CTSB) is a lysosomal cysteine protease predominantly localized in endosomal and lysosomal compartments, where it participates in intracellular and extracellular protein turnover and contributes to cellular proteolysis pathways[1][2]. Cathepsin B is among the most abundant lysosomal proteases and functions in protein degradation, lysosomal homeostasis, and cellular turnover, linking its activity to fundamental endo/lysosomal biological processes[1][2]. Mechanistically, Cathepsin B regulates multiple forms of programmed cell death, including apoptosis, pyroptosis, ferroptosis, necroptosis, and autophagic cell death, thereby connecting lysosomal proteolysis with cell fate determination pathways[2]. In disease models, dysregulated Cathepsin B activity contributes to neurological disorders, cardiovascular disease, inflammatory conditions, and multiple cancers, where elevated expression is frequently associated with pathological progression, tissue remodeling, invasion, and metastasis[2][3]. Compared with related cysteine cathepsins such as Cathepsin L, which is strongly involved in antigen processing, proprotein processing, and degradation of extracellular matrix proteins including collagen and elastin, Cathepsin B is distinguished by its characteristic endopeptidase and exopeptidase activities and its prominent role in programmed cell death signaling and disease-associated proteolytic networks[4][2]. For experimental applications, Cathepsin B is a widely used pharmacological target, and selective inhibitors including CA-074 and other Cathepsin B inhibitors have been extensively employed to investigate protease-dependent mechanisms and evaluate therapeutic strategies in cancer and other disease models[3][2].
