Background
The cystatin superfamily is a well-established family of cysteine protease Inhibitors. Cystatin M/E (CST6) is a nonredundant, epithelium-specific protease inhibitor with a presumed role in epidermal differentiation and tumor suppression. It is restricted to the stratum granulosum of normal skin, the stratum granulosum/spinosum of psoriatic skin, and the secretory coils of eccrine sweat glands. Low expression levels are found in the nasal cavity.
