I said "found in the brain" because that's the only tissue i'm sure it's found in. It may be in other tissues as well. If you have evidence for that, will you add it please? also, stroke and head injury may not be the only times it's activated in excess. --Delldot 21:27, 8 October 2005 (UTC)
Calpain is ubiquitously found, indeed. You should find more sources at pubmed. The overactivation of calpain also contributes to induced hepatotoxicity and several neurodegenerative disorders, such as Alzheimer's Disease, main subject of my graduation research project.

[edit] References Missing
The text is full of numerical references that are not listed below. Please, fix that. Bruno Ramos 03:11, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
- It appears that a user added content from his/her thesis, but did not include the references. I have reverted to the last version before those additions. --Arcadian 14:54, 19 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] P1 and P2
This text refers to the P1 and P2 position on the molecule but as far as I can determine there is no explanation of what these are anywhere in wikipedia, including on the protein page. Could this please be rectified? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 134.159.165.35 (talk) 03:08, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
