Cystatin C is a 14kD member of the Cystatin superfamily of cysteine protease inhibitors (1).
Most cell types secrete Cystatin C.
Cystatin C inhibits cathepsins, and thereby may function as a tumor suppressor by inhibiting cathepsin mediated tumor cell invasion.
In addition, this tumor suppressor function can also be attributed to Cystatin C's ability to antagonize TGF-beta1 signaling.
Cystatin C may also modulate antigen presentation through its ability to inhibit cathepsins.
Cystatin C is also a biomarker for kidney dysfunction.
