Scavenging of Labile Heme by Hemopexin Is a Key Checkpoint in Cancer Growth and Metastases

Summary: Hemopexin (Hx) is a scavenger of labile heme. Herein, we present data defining the role of tumor stroma-expressed Hx in suppressing cancer progression. Labile heme and Hx levels are inversely correlated in the plasma of patients with prostate cancer (PCa). Further, low expression of Hx in P...
