Author notes
Competing Interests: C.-Y.L. is an inventor on US patents #6,077,938 (Title: Monoclonal antibody to an
80-kDa protease) and #6,677,377 (Title: Structure based discovery of inhibitors of
matriptase for the cancer diagnosis and therapy by detection and inhibition of matriptase
activity) and M.D.J. and C.-Y.L. are inventors on US patent #7,355,015 (Title: Matriptase,
a serine protease and its applications). This does not alter our adherence to PLOS
ONE policies on sharing data and materials. The funders had no role in study design,
data collection and analysis, decision to publish, or preparation of the manuscript.
