GeneGene: CTSC

Dipeptidyl peptidase-1 (DPP1 / cathepsin C)

DPP1 (cathepsin C, encoded by CTSC) activates neutrophil serine proteases that drive tissue-damaging inflammation. Reversible DPP1 inhibition lowers active neutrophil elastase, an approach validated in bronchiectasis and explored in other neutrophilic diseases.
