TMPRSS4: an emerging potential therapeutic target in cancer.

abstract：:Mice transplanted with NC carcinoma were treated with the thromboxane synthetase inhibitor dazmegrel (UK38485) or with nafazatrom (BAY G 6575), a compound that is reported to increase prostacyclin formation. Some experiments included the cytotoxic drugs methotrexate and melphalan. The tumours were excised under anaest...
