Pooled analysis revealed that the levels of serum cystatin C in cancer patients after chemotherapy were significantly higher than those of patients prior to treatment [standard mean difference (SMD) = 0.54, 95% CI 0.34-0.74, P = 0.0000].

The determination of cystatin C (cysC) may be helpful in diagnosis and monitoring of cancer because the pathogenesis of cancer is linked with an increased activity of cysteine peptidases (cathepsins) and a decrease of cysC concentration.

In addition, the secretory rate of circulating cystatin-C from cancer tissue was investigated by comparing the blood and tissue expression levels of cystatin-C.

Among the 253 patients, the results showed that patients with low Cys-C expression level in cancer tissue has longer overall survival (OS) than that with high Cys-C level.

Six studies, which used different test and reference standard thresholds, suggested that cystatin C has the potential to monitor renal function in children undergoing chemotherapy for malignancy.

We recently reported a relationship between plasma levels of cystatin C and incidence of the metabolic syndrome (MetS) among the first 2,369 subjects who participated in the re-examination study of the population-based Malmö and Diet Cancer Cardiovascular cohort (MDC-CC-re-exam).

To elucidate the molecular requirements for cancer cell internalization of the extracellular cysteine protease inhibitor cystatin C, 12 variants of the protein were produced and used for uptake experiments in MCF-7 cells.

As to the second aim, the possible association of cathepsin B along with selected molecular markers, cathepsin L, and endogenous cysteine protease inhibitors (stefins A and B and cystatin C) with meningioma malignancy was determined using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays in tumor homogenates.

Moreover, CystC mRNA expression was down-regulated in approximately 50% of human malignancies, particularly cancers of the stomach, uterus, colon, and kidney.

We observed progressive reductions in levels of the protease inhibitor cystatin C, an inhibitor of cathepsin B with corresponding increases in the malignancy of glioma cell lines, implying an inverse correlation between cystatin C and tumor grade.

Transcripts showing reduced expression in C6 cells relative to astrocytes included the extracellular matrix glycoprotein osteonectin/SPARC (secreted protein, acidic, rich in cysteine), actin-binding proteins thymosins beta-4 and beta-10, the cysteine protease inhibitor cystatin C, the actin-gelling protein SM22/transgelin, and ferritin-H. SAGE results were confirmed by Northern blot for all transcripts tested, reaffirming the value of the SAGE technique for expression profiling in cancer biology.
