Abstract
Streptozotocin-induced diabetes resulted in a decrease in the cathepsin D activity (free and total) in rat liver, kidney, brain and heart with a concomitant increase in tissue protein content and amino acids pool size. Treatment with insulin brought about the restoration of the cathepsin D activity to normal or greater than normal levels; tissue protein content and amino acids pool size also returned to normal values.Entities:
