Decreased expression of kallikrein-related peptidase 13: Possible contribution to metastasis of human oral cancer

The human kallikrein‐related peptidase family is comprised of 15 serine protease genes on chromosome 19q13.4 . Our previous microarray analyses showed that the gene kallikrein‐related peptidase 13 (KLK13) was down‐regulated in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) cell lines. We evaluated the expressi...

Zusammenfassung:The human kallikrein‐related peptidase family is comprised of 15 serine protease genes on chromosome 19q13.4 . Our previous microarray analyses showed that the gene kallikrein‐related peptidase 13 (KLK13) was down‐regulated in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) cell lines. We evaluated the expression status of KLK13 in primary OSCCs and performed functional molecular experiments in OSCC cell lines. In 102 primary tumors studied, KLK13 expression significantly (P
