Bleomycin hydrolase regulates the release of chemokines important for inflammation and wound healing by keratinocytes

Abstract Bleomycin hydrolase (BLMH) is a well-conserved cysteine protease widely expressed in several mammalian tissues. In skin, which contains high levels of BLMH, this protease is involved in the degradation of citrullinated filaggrin monomers into free amino acids important for skin hydration. I...
