## Abstract hBVR functions in the cell as a reductase and as a kinase. In the first capacity, it reduces biliverdin, the product of HO activity, to the effective intracellular antioxidant, bilirubin; as a dual‐specificity kinase (S/T/Y) it activates the MAPK and IGF/IRK receptor signal transduction
Expression of urokinase-type plasminogen activator (u-PA) strongly correlates with a malignant tumor cell phenotype. In the multistep process of metastasis, different cellular functions are influenced by urokinase. The enzyme is known to be effective via both proteolytical and signal transduction me
