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
## Abstract ## Background. Tumor cell biological factors, such as urokinase plasminogen activator (uPA) and its inhibitor plasminogen activator inhibitorβ1 (PAIβ1), cathepsin D, and cβmyc play a role in tumor invasion, metastasis, and proliferation. In this study, the prognostic importance of thes
