Dipeptidyl Peptidase 8 Has Post-Proline Dipeptidyl Aminopeptidase and Prolyl Endopeptidase Activities
We report an expression and purification procedure to produce homogeneous, active human DP8 and DPIV. The most interesting discovery was that DP8 specifically has both prolyl dipeptidyl aminopeptidase and PEP ...

CD26/DP IV in T Cell Activation and Autoimmunity
In summary, the present study demonstrates a critical role for CD26/DP IV in balancing Th1 immune responses. We observed a deregulation of the autoimmune process in EAE in vitro, the prototypic model of an immune...

Dipeptidyl Peptidase-IV Activity and/or Structure Homologs (DASH): Contributing Factors in the Pathogenesis of Rheumatic Diseases?
Deregulation of DPP-IV-like activity was observed in synovial fluid and blood plasma of patients with RA and PsA. The cellular source of soluble DPP-IV-like enzymatic activity remains unclear.

Type-II Transmembrane Prolyl Dipeptidases and Matrix Metalloproteinases in Membrane Vesicles of Active Endothelial Cells
Endothelia cells in sparse culture are migratory and increase the production of gelatinases of serine- and metallo-classes in membrane vesicles. Collectively, proteases associated with membrane vesicles degrad...

DP8 and DP9 have Extra-Enzymatic Roles in Cell Adhesion, Migration and Apoptosis
The biological significance of the new DPIV family members DP8 and DP9 is unknown. In order to obtain correlations between cell behaviors and peptidase expression levels, DP8 and DP9 overexpression in transfec...

Relative Contribution of Incretins to the Glucose Lowering Effect of DP IV Inhibitors in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM)
Incretin based therapies for type 2 diabetes mellitus are quite promising. Presently, basic research places both GIP and GLP-1 based approaches on an equal standing. Recently, there has been renewed interest i...

Prediction of Dipeptidyl Peptidase (DP) 8 Structure by Homology Modelling
The DP8 model produced was very similar to the DPIV structure in the α/β hydrolase domain. Analysis of the active site of the DP8 model revealed significant structural conservation in the catalytic triad between ...
