Loss of such balance is associated with invasion and metastasis of tumors. This study aimed to determine the expression of MMP-9 and TIMP-1 in gastric carcinoma, and the association of the expressive imbalance between MMP9 and TIMP-1 with the invasion and metastasis and prognosis of gastric carcinoma.METHODS: We used immunohistochemistry to determine the expressions of MMP-9, TTMP-1 and proliferating cell nuclear antigen Ki-67 in the gastric specimens taken from 256 patients with primary gastric carcinoma. The patients were followed-up for up to 96 months.RESULTS: No association between the expression of MMP9 and TIMP-1 and patients' sex and age, tumor size and location of gastric carcinoma was observed. The incidence of the positive expression of MMP-9 in cases with tumors invasion to muscularis propria and visceral peritoneum (70.13% and 69.09%, respectively) was significantly higher than that in cases with tumor invasion only to lamina propria or submucosa (42.50 %, P=0.0162). The positive correlation between MMP-9 expression and the depth of tumor invasion was observed (Pearson correlation coefficient=0.2129,P=0.016). Along with the increase of the metastatic station of lymph nodes, the incidence of the MMP-9 expression was increased by degrees; a positive correlation between them was observed (Pearson correlation coefficient=0.2910,P=0.0001). There was also a significant correlation between MMP-9 expression and the TNM stage in gastric carcinoma (Pearson correlation coefficient=0.3027, P＜0.0001). The incidence of MMP-9 expression in stage Ⅱ and Ⅲ/Ⅳ (75.00%and 76.15%, respectively) was significantly higher than those in stage Ⅰ (46.15 %, P＜0.0001). A negative correlation between TIMP-1 immunoreactivity and the depth of invasion,status of lymph node metastasis and TNM stage was obse展开更多
