Function

Acid-stable proteinase inhibitor with strong affinities for trypsin, chymotrypsin, elastase, and cathepsin G (PubMed:10702419, PubMed:2039600, PubMed:2110563, PubMed:24121345, PubMed:3462719, PubMed:3533531). Modulates the inflammatory and immune responses after bacterial infection, and after infection by the intracellular parasite L.major. Down-regulates responses to bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) (By similarity). Plays a role in regulating the activation of NF-kappa-B and inflammatory responses (PubMed:10702419, PubMed:24352879). Has antimicrobial activity against mycobacteria, but not against salmonella. Contributes to normal resistance against infection by M.tuberculosis. Required for normal resistance to infection by L.major. Required for normal wound healing, probably by preventing tissue damage by limiting protease activity (By similarity). Together with ELANE, required for normal differentiation and proliferation of bone marrow myeloid cells (PubMed:24352879).

Supplementary info

Activity summary

Secretory leukocyte protease inhibitor (SLPI) also known as antileukoproteinase and neutrophil elastase inhibitor is a protein with a molecular mass of approximately 12 kDa. SLPI is found mainly in epithelial tissues and is expressed in locations such as the respiratory tract skin and cervix. Mechanically SLPI functions as a serine protease inhibitor binding to and neutralizing enzymes like neutrophil elastase cathepsin G and trypsin which helps to limit tissue damage during inflammation.

Biological function summary

SLPI serves as a protector of epithelial surfaces from proteolytic degradation and acts as an anti-inflammatory agent. It displays broad-spectrum antimicrobial properties providing protection against bacterial and viral infections. Although SLPI is not part of a complex itself its interactions with extracellular matrix proteins help modulate wound healing processes and maintain tissue integrity.

Pathways

SLPI participates in the innate immune response and inflammation regulation pathways. It interacts within pathways that involve the complement cascade and kallikrein-kinin system helping to regulate inflammation and modulate immune responses. During these processes SLPI is related to proteins such as alpha-1-antitrypsin in its role as a protease inhibitor contributing to the regulation of protease activity and inflammatory responses.

Associated diseases and disorders

SLPI is implicated in conditions such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and cystic fibrosis where excessive protease activity leads to tissue damage. In these diseases SLPI shows a protective role against lung tissue degradation. SLPI is also associated with the progression of certain cancers like ovarian cancer where its overexpression may support tumor growth and metastasis. In these contexts SLPI relates to other protease inhibitors such as tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) due to their shared function in regulating protease activity and tissue remodeling.

    Western blot - Anti-SLPI antibody - Aminoterminal end (ab46763)

    False colour image of Western blot: Anti-SLPI antibody - Aminoterminal end staining at 1/1000 dilution, shown in green; Mouse anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5] (Anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5] - Loading Control ab8245) loading control staining at 1/20000 dilution, shown in red. In Western blot, ab46763 was shown to bind specifically to SLPI. A band was observed at 22 kDa in wild-type HeLa cell lysates with no signal observed at this size in SLPI knockout cell line Human SLPI knockout HeLa cell line ab265215 (knockout cell lysate Human SLPI knockout HeLa cell lysate ab257685). To generate this image, wild-type and SLPI knockout HeLa cell lysates were analysed. First, samples were run on an SDS-PAGE gel then transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane. Membranes were blocked in fluorescent western blot (TBS-based) blocking solution before incubation with primary antibodies overnight at 4 °C. Blots were washed four times in TBS-T, incubated with secondary antibodies for 1 h at room temperature, washed again four times then imaged.Secondary antibodies used were Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye®800CW) preabsorbed (Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preadsorbed ab216773) and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preabsorbed (Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preadsorbed ab216776) at 1/20000 dilution.
