Are There Specific Serine Proteases Associated with Certain Types of Cancer?
Yes, certain serine proteases are associated with specific types of cancer. For example, kallikreins are a subgroup of serine proteases that are highly expressed in prostate cancer and are used as biomarkers for disease progression. Another example is granzyme B, which is involved in the immune response and has been studied in the context of melanoma and other cancers.
