Cystatin B is a small, ubiquitously expressed protein belonging to the cystatin superfamily of cysteine protease inhibitors. It primarily regulates cathepsin activity (e.g., cathepsin B, L, S) by blocking their proteolytic functions, playing roles in cellular processes like apoptosis, inflammation, and protein turnover. Mutations in the *CSTB* gene encoding cystatin B are linked to progressive myoclonus epilepsy type 1 (EPM1/Unverricht-Lundborg disease), a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by seizures, myoclonus, and neuronal loss.
Cystatin B antibodies are essential tools for studying its expression, localization, and function in health and disease. These antibodies enable detection of cystatin B in tissues and cells via techniques like Western blot, immunohistochemistry (IHC), and immunofluorescence (IF). Research using these antibodies has revealed reduced cystatin B levels or mislocalization in EPM1 models, supporting its role in neuroprotection. Additionally, cystatin B is implicated in cancer, immune regulation, and lysosomal storage disorders, with antibodies aiding in exploring its involvement in tumor progression, immune cell activity, and lysosomal dysfunction.
Commercial cystatin B antibodies are typically raised in rabbits or mice against peptide antigens, validated for specificity and sensitivity. Their applications extend to diagnostic research, biomarker studies, and mechanistic investigations, highlighting cystatin B's multifaceted roles in cellular homeostasis and pathology.
