## Background and Objectives: The objective was to evaluate the potent role of matrix metalloproteinases(MMPs) and the tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases(TIMPs) in processes leading to metastasis and local invasiveness of Chinese human ductal adenocarcinomas of the pancreas. We also evaluated
## Abstract Angiogenesis is the process by which new blood vessels are formed from preexisting vasculature. It is an essential feature of the female reproductive cycle, embryonic development and wound repair. Angiogenesis has also been identified as a causal or contributing factor in several pathol
Background. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) play an important role in tumor invasiveness. This study investigates the expression status of MMPs and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) in head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCC). Methods. Of 48 laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (L
Matrix-metalloproteinases (MMPs) are associated with invasive and metastatic behavior of several human malignant tumors. We have determined MMP-2 and MMP-9 and tissue inhibitors of MMPs (TIMP-1 and TIMP-2) in blood plasma and in renal tissue samples of patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) from c
## Background: Activation of matrix metalloproteinase-2 (mmp-2) has been implicated in the progression, invasion, and metastasis of various cancers, but little information is available with regard to its role in pancreatic carcinoma with poor prognosis. ## Methods: Gelatin zymography was used for
