Insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-binding protein-5 (IGFBP-5) is cleaved by a serine protease that is secreted by fibroblasts and porcine smooth muscle cells (pSMC) in culture. To investigate whether other serine proteases could cleave this substrate at physiologically relevant concentrations, we...
