Matrix Metalloproteinase-2 and -7 Expression in Colorectal Cancer
PURPOSE Matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) and MMP-7 have been implicated in tumor growth and metastasis. This study aimed to investigate the expressions of MMP-2 and -7 in colorectal cancer and to evaluate their values as prognostic markers. METHODS Immunohistochemical staining for MMP-2 and -7 was done in 144 resected colorectal cancer specimens. Clinicopathological data and survival result...
متن کاملExpression of Matrix Metalloproteinase-2 and -9 in Meningioma
Background: Meningioma is one of the most common tumors of the central nervous system. It was shown that meningioma had up-regulated expression of Matrix Metalloproteinases (MMPs) that involved in cell growth, angiogenesis and metastasis. Objectives: The aim of the study was the assessment of serum MMP-2 and -9 levels in patients with different grades of meningioma. Materials & Me...
متن کاملExpression and prognostic value of matrix metalloproteinase-7 in colorectal cancer.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate expression and prognostic value of matrix metalloproteinase-7 (MMP-7) in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients. CRC tissues and corresponding distal normal mucosa tissues of 118 CRC patients were assessed by immunohistochemistry. Correlations between MMP-7 expression, patients' clinic pathological features, and overall survival rate were analyzed. We found t...
متن کاملRESEARCH COMMUNICATION Expression and Prognostic Value of Matrix Metalloproteinase-7 in Colorectal Cancer
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most frequent cancers in the world. According to the statistical data from International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), in 2008, 1.24 million new cases of colorectal cancer were clinically diagnosed, and this type of cancer killed 610,000 people. Now CRC is the fourth most common malignant tumor and the third leading cause of cancer death in both men...
متن کاملMatrix metalloproteinase-7 expression in colorectal cancer liver metastases: evidence for involvement of MMP-7 activation in human cancer metastases.
PURPOSE Matrix metalloproteinase-7 (MMP-7) is a member of the MMP family, which is overexpressed by some tumor cells and is thought to enhance the tumor metastatic potential. The aim of this study is to examine the MMP-7 expression in the human colorectal cancer (CRC) liver metastases and normal liver tissue using multiple techniques and to determine its association with liver metastases format...
