Target Information
Feline cystatin-A (CSTA) is an intracellular thiol proteinase inhibitor that serves as a precursor protein for the cornified cell envelope in keratinocytes, playing a role in epidermal development and maintenance. CSTA regulates intracellular proteolysis by inhibiting cysteine proteases, thus maintaining cellular homeostasis. Additionally, it may contribute to the bacteriostatic properties of the skin.
