Abstract
PURPOSE:The matrix metalloproteinases and their inhibitors are known to be involved in the process of tumor invasion and progression. Our objective was to investigate the potential diagnostic and prognostic value of plasma matrix metalloproteinase-2 and -9 and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1Keywords
