Abstract AR

يمثل البروتينيز المعدني الحشوي-9 انزيما مهما في عملية تحلل الغشاء القاعدي و الحشوات بين الخلايا خلال مرحلة انتشار السرطان.

هدفت هذه الدراسة لمقارنة مستوى تعبير البروتينيز 9-MMP في سرطان الثدي الغدي و الأورام المتليفة و ذلك من خلال استخدام تقنية التهجين خارج الخلايا لثلاثين نسيجا تعود إلى عينات من سرطان الثدي و أخرى طبيعية.

بينت النتائج بأن مستوى تعبير البروتينيز 9-MMP كان عاليا معنويا في عينات السرطان مقارنة مع العينات الطبيعية مما يجعل هذا البروتين مؤشر حياتي مهم في التشخيص المبكر لسرطان الثدي.

Abstract EN

Matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) is regarded as important for degradation of the basement membrane and extracellular matrix during cancer invasion and other tissue-remodeling events.

the aim of this study is to investigate and compare the expression of MMP-9 in human breast adenocarcinoma with fibroadenoma.

In this study we evaluate the prognostic value of MMP-9, by in situ hybridization staining in a series of 30 breast cancer tissues.

Both mean percentage of MMP-9 MRNA and scoring of it،s expression in normal and cancer, showing an increased expression of MMP-9 was significantly high in tumor compared with control samples, with extensive score among breast cancer tissues.

This study shows that MMP-9 expression in breast cancer is associated with better prognosis.
