    basic FUNCTION
  • tumor suppressor role in breast and prostate cancer
  • KLK9 and KLK10, once activated, are unlikely to participate in further pro-KLK activation pathways, although similar to KLK1 they may activate other bioactive peptides
  • estrogen-sensitive kallikreins with KLK14, and KLK11, all synergistically enhanced and upregulated by androgens in breast cancer cells via a membrane bound androgen receptor
  • having the ability to inhibit anchorage-independent growth in hepatoma cells
  • lower KLK10 levels in salivary gland pleomorphic adenoma, suggesting aberrant expression in a tumour that develops primarily from myoepithelial cells
  • may function as a tumour suppressor by repressing proliferation, enhancing apoptosis and decreasing glucose metabolism in PC3 prostate cancer cells
  • CELLULAR PROCESS protein, degradation
