High-Throughput Screening Identifies Cardiac Glycosides as Potent Inhibitors of Human Tissue Kallikrein Expression: Implications for Cancer Therapies
14 Sept 2008
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Human tissue kallikreins (KLK) comprise a subgroup of 15 homologous secreted serine proteases. Primarily known for their clinical use as cancer biomarkers (e.g., PSA), KLKs have recently been directly implicated in cancer-related processes, including invasion, angiogenesis, and tumor growth regulation. Therefore, the identification of compounds that would modulate expression of KLKs might be of...
