Abstract excerpt

Squamous cell carcinoma antigen (SCCA) is clinically used as a tumor marker for patients with squamous cell carcinoma of various organs. SCCA1 and its highly homologous molecule, SCCA2, belong to the serine proteinase inhibitors (serpins) family, suggesting that these proteins may be involved in the malignant behavior of squamous cell carcinoma cells. The aim of this study is to functionally characterize these...
