Interleukin-6/soluble IL-6 receptor-induced secretion of cathepsin B and L from human gingival fibroblasts is regulated by caveolin-1 and ERK1/2 pathways

AimsCathepsins are essential lysosomal enzymes that maintain organismal homeostasis by degrading extracellular substrates. The inflammatory cytokine interleukin-6 (IL-6) increases the production of cathepsins through the caveolin-1 (Cav-1) and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) signaling pathways, which...
