Proprotein Convertase Inhibition Results in Decreased Ski Proliferation, Tumorigenesis, and Metastasis
PACE4 is a proprotein convertase (PC) responsible for cleaving and activating proteins that contribute to enhance tumor progression. PACE4 overexpression significantly increased the susceptibility to carcinogenesis, leading to enhanced tumor cell proliferation and premature degradation of the baseme...
