Focal Cerebral Ischemia Induces Expression of Glutaminyl Cyclase along with Downstream Molecular and Cellular Inflammatory Responses

Glutaminyl cyclase (QC) and its isoenzyme (isoQC) catalyze the formation of N-terminal pyroglutamate (pGlu) from glutamine on a number of neuropeptides, peptide hormones and chemokines. Chemokines of the C-C ligand (CCL) motif family are known to contribute to inflammation in neurodegenerative condi...
