Abstract
A series of peptidyl aldehyde derivatives were synthesized and tested for their inhibitory effects on several cysteine proteases and a serin e protease. These componds showed no inhibition for alpha-chymotrypsin at the concentration less than 1000 ng/ml, while they exhibited promi nent inhibition for calpain II and cathepsins, especially cathepsin L.
