## Abstract The content of PAIโ1 was measured in carcinoma tissues from the stomach and colorectum divided macroscopically into 3 portions: the central part of the carcinoma, the marginal part of the carcinoma containing some normal mucosa, and the normal mucosa. Among these tissues, the highest le

Surveillance colonoscopy and biopsy are inaccurate methods of predicting the likelihood of ulcerative colitis patients to develop colon carcinoma. We examined uPA and PAI-1 as potential markers for assessing these patients and those with familial polyposis who are at risk of developing colon cancer.
## Background: The plasminogen activator system plays an important role in different malignant tumors. these enzymes participate in the destruction of intercellular matrices and basement membranes and/or can modulate the growth potency of tumor cells and may even promote metastases. in this study,
In experimental models, plasminogen activator-mediated degradation of the extracellular matrix is inhibited by type-1 plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI-1). PA14 has also been shown to protect tumour stromal tissue from autoproteolytic activities and may thus substantially promote tumour growth an
Background: Plasminogen activator inhibitor type 2 (PAI-2) is a member of the serine protease inhibitor (SER-PIN) superfamily and forms stable complexes with urokinase type plasminogen activator (uPA). uPA can be found on the cell surface attached to its specific receptor (uPAR), allowing for contro
Human kallikrein 2 (hK2) is a serine protease expressed predominantly in the prostate which has 80% homology to prostate-specific antigen (PSA). hK2 is an active trypsin-like protease which has been shown by immuno-histochemical staining to be more highly expressed in prostate carcinoma than in beni
