摘要
To determine the role of the reactive stroma in cancer progression, we investigated decorin (DCN) and transforming growth factor-beta (TGF- expression, and matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) activity in the tumorous esophagus. We found statistically insignificantly decreased levels of DCN expression in the pathological tissues. No obvious alterations in TGF- expression were noticed. The highly significant increase in MMP-2 activity in cancers did not result in elevated levels of TGF- dimers. Therefore, the system of TGF- liberation from its complex with DCN by activated MMP-2 does not seem to contribute to esophageal cancerogenesis, although this hypothesis should be reevaluated with a larger study group.
