Detection of the Level of Matrix Metalloproteinase-1 in Breast Cancer Patients
Keywords:
breast carcinoma, matrix metalloproteinase-1 MMP1, Immunohistochemical staining, Iraqi women patients.Abstract
Matrix metalloproteinase-1 MMP1 has attracted interest in cancer research, owing to its role in tumour progression. The current study aimed to evaluate the expression of matrix metalloproteinase-1 MMP1in human breast cancer women patients. An immunohistochemical study was performed using tumours from 41 breast cancer patients, with specific antibodies against, MMP-1The results indicated that expression was related to tumour size, histological grade, Regarding the malignant lesions, the age incidence in six cases below forty years were (19.37%). 23 patients (41.93%) were between (40-49) years. four cases (12.90%) were between (50-59) years old and eight cases were above (60) years old about (25.8%)
