## Abstract The overall survival rate of patients suffering from carcinomas has remained poor and nearly unchanged over the last decades. This is mainly due to the soβcalled minimal residual disease, __i.e__., remaining tumor cells that overcome surgery and/or radiotherapy and are the cause of loco
## Abstract The plasminogenβactivating (PA) and matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) enzyme systems are implicated in proteolytic turnover of the extracellular matrix (ECM) associated with biologic processes including wound healing, inflammation and angiogenesis. Aberrant expression of components of the
Elevated levels of expression of the urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) and its inhibitor PAI-1 have shown to be related to poor prognosis in a variety of cancer types. In the present study, cytosolic levels of uPA and PAI-1 were determined with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays in cytosols
