## Abstract The inter‐α trypsin inhibitor (ITI) family is a group of proteins built up from different combinations of 1 light chain (ITI‐L) and 3 highly homologous heavy chains (ITI‐H1, ‐H2 and ‐H3). To investigate a potential role of the ITI family chains in cancer and metastasis spreading, we eng
## Abstract Malignant cells possess a high degree of proteolytic activity in which the plasminogen activator system plays an important role. An increased expression of urokinase type plasminogen activator (uPA) is of significance for degradation of the extracellular tumor matrix, facilitating invas
