Abstract
The prognosis of cancer patients depends largely on the ability of cancer cells to invade the surrounding tissue and to metastasize. These processes are influenced by tumor-associated proteases among which serine proteases and their inhibitors may play a central role. The aim of our study is to determine the content of serine protease uPA and its inhibitors PAI 1 and PAI 2, in primary tumors of the breast and urinary bladder, and to establish their prognostic value. It is hoped that the results of our study could be used for a more rational treatment planning in patients with primary cancers of the breast and urinary bladder, thus improving their survival.
