proteolysis is now known to be integral to many aspects of cancer biology,including angiogenesis, regulation of the bioavailability of growth factors, cellular adhesion, cytokine/chemokine signalling, inflammatory cell recruitment, and the mobilization of normal cells from their tissue compartments to act as accomplicesin metastasis. The last decade has witnessed a revolution in our thinking concerning the role of extracellular proteolysis in cancer biology: this is the primary focus of this book.
