## Background: The plasminogen activator system plays an important role in different malignant tumors. these enzymes participate in the destruction of intercellular matrices and basement membranes and/or can modulate the growth potency of tumor cells and may even promote metastases. in this study,

CD95 ligand expression has been observed in various malignancies. Studying the CD95 ligand (CD95L) and receptor (CD95) system in eight non-malignant mammary tissues and 40 breast cancer tissues, mRNA and protein expression was determined by quantitative reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reactio
The role of two important tumour suppressor genes, p16 and p53, was evaluated in cartilaginous tumour tissues. Genomic DNA from 22 chondrosarcomas, 5 benign chondroid tumours, 1 sample of reactive proliferative cartilage and 2 samples of normal cartilage were analysed using polymerase chain reaction
The purpose of the present study was to examine the expression of p53 protein in malignant melanomas of the nodular sub-type, with special reference to the role of p53 alterations in the development of metastases. Increased expression of p53 protein was found in 29 of 30 cases using PAbl801 monoclon
