Objective:To investigate the expressions of S100A4 and MMP- 2 and their correla-tions to invasiveness and metastasis in gastric cancer. Methods:The expressions of S100A4 and MMP- 2 were detected by SP immunohistochemical method in 49 cases of gastric cancer tissue and 20 cases of normal tissue. Results:The positive rate of S100A4 and MMP- 2 (59.18% 、67.35%) was significantly higher in gastric cancer tissue than in normal gastric tissue (0.00% 、20.00% ,P
