The enzymes KLK5, KLK6, and KLK7 (designated KLK5-KLK7 hereinafter) are serine proteases and belong to the kallikrein family. These enzymes are involved in important physiological mechanisms such as skin desquamation and neural development. In addition to its important role in normal cell function, evidence shows that the deregulation of KLK5-KLK7expression or the excessive increase of th…
The serine proteases KLK5, KLK6, and KLK7 are considered potential targets for the treatment of Netherton syndrome (KLK5 and KLK7) and neurodegenerative diseases (KLK6). However, there is still a need to develop potent, selective, and active inhibitors in cell and animal models to validate these claims. The identification of compounds that have the potential to inhibit these enzymes can h…
