Extracellular Tissue Transglutaminase Activates Noncanonical NF-κB Signaling and Promotes Metastasis in Ovarian Cancer

Tissue transglutaminase (TG2) is a multifunctional protein that binds to fibronectin and exerts protein transamidating activity in the presence of Ca2+. We previously reported that TG2 is upregulated in ovarian tumors and enhances intraperitoneal (i.p.) metastasis. TG2 is secreted abundantly in ova...
