Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Few investigators have focused on possible interactions among several MMPs collectively. MATERIALS AND METHODS:Immunostaining for MMP-7, MMP-2 and MT1-MMP was performed on 51 early invasive (T1) colorectal carcinomas, and correlations between the expressions of pairs of MMPs were examined. RESULTS:MMP-7 expression was positive at the invasive front in 18 (35%) out of 51 tumors. Cytoplasmic MMP-2 expression was positive in 20(39%) out of 51 tumors, whereas its expression in the stroma was positive in 17(33%) out of 51 tumors. MT1-MMP was localized predominantly in the tumor cell cytoplasm in 14 (27%) out of 51 tumors. There was an inverse correlation between MMP-7 and cytoplasmic MMP-2 expression with marginal significance (p = 0.06), and between MMP-7 and MT1-MMP expression with statistical significance (p = 0.01). The association between cytoplasmic MMP-2 and MT1-MMP expression was statistically significant (p = 0.0004). CONCLUSION:MMP-7 and MMP-2 or MT1-MMP may contribute compensationally to tumor invasion and metastasis in T1 colorectal carcinomas.
