Clinical data link KLK14 expression to several diseases, primarily cancer; however, little is known of its (patho)-physiological role. To functionally characterize KLK14, we expressed and purified recombinant KLK14 in mature and proenzyme forms and determined its expression pattern, specificity, regulation, and in vitro substrates. By using our novel immunoassay, the normal and/or diseased skin, breast, prostate, and ovary contained the highest concentration of KLK14. Serum KLK14 levels were significantly elevated in prostate cancer patients compared with healthy males. KLK14 displayed trypsin-like specificity with high selectivity for P1-Arg over Lys. KLK14 activity could be regulated as follows: 1) by autolytic cleavage leading to enzymatic inactivation; 2) by the inhibitory serpins alpha1-antitrypsin, alpha2-antiplasmin, antithrombin III, and alpha1-antichymotrypsin with second order rate constants (k(+2)/Ki) of 49.8, 23.8, 1.48, and 0.224 microM(-1) min(-1), respectively, as well as plasminogen activator inhibitor-1; and 3) by citrate and zinc ions, which exerted stimulatory and inhibitory effects on KLK14 activity, respectively. We also expanded the in vitro target repertoire of KLK14 to include collagens I-IV, fibronectin, laminin, kininogen, fibrinogen, plasminogen, vitronectin, and insulin-like growth factor-binding proteins 2 and 3. Our results indicate that KLK14 may be implicated in several facets of tumor progression, including growth, invasion, and angiogenesis, as well as in arthritic disease via deterioration of cartilage. These findings may have clinical implications for the management of cancer and other disorders in which KLK14 activity is elevated."xsd:string
