Leupeptin, Microbial is a broad-spectrum serine and cysteine protease inhibitor [1]. Leupeptin, Microbial is a reversible protease inhibitor, It acts on bovine trypsin, human plasminase, bovine splenic cathepsin B, and recombinant human caltrypsin with Ki values of 35 nM, 3.4 μM, 6 nM, and 72 nM[7].

The protease inhibitor Leupeptin, Microbial prevented multiplication of the human coronavirus strain 229E in cultures of MRC-C cells [3]. Leupeptin, Microbial-mediated inhibition of trypsin-like proteases maintains substrate mycelium development, whereas proteolytic degradation of Leupeptin, Microbial in stationary phase cultures derepresses the trypsin-like proteases, leading to the digestion of substrate mycelium and promotion of aerial mycelium formation [2]. As the calpain inhibitor Leupeptin, Microbial primarily protected hair cells from neomycin[5]. The expression of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) from Leupeptin recovered up to 50% of the cell suspension culture [6].

Leupeptin, Microbial was well tolerated in mice. Leupeptin, Microbial significantly increased LC3b-II in a dose-dependent way in the total tissue extract and lysosomal enrichment portion (LE portion). At the level of electron microscopy (EM), Leupeptin, Microbial induced the accumulation of electron-dense vesicle structures [4].
