ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the expression and location of Matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) in human salivary gland tumors and the effect of MMP-9 in soft and neural invasion,and to find whether there will be a rational option to treat saliary gland tumors by inducing MMP-9,especially saliary malignant tumors.Methods A total of 140 cases of human salivary gland tumors,including 32 cases of plemorphic adenoma tissues,28 cases of basal cell,adenoma tissues,40 case of mucoepidermoid carcinoma tissues,16 case of carcinomatous metastasis,24 case of no metastasis,18 cases of neurotropism,22 of case non-neurotropism,adenoid cystic carcinoma tissues of 40 cases and normal human salivary tissues of 10 cases were detected the expression and location of MMP-9 by PV-9000 polymer detection system for immunohistoch emical staining mcthod.The relationship between the expression and clinical pathological behaviors was analyzed.Results The positive rate of MMP-9 expression in salivary gland malignant tumors,salivary gland benign tumors and normal salivary glands was 72.5%,30.0% and 10.0% ( x2 =32.12,P < 0.01 ).The positive rate of MMP-9 was 93.75% (15/16) in the mucoepidermoid carcinoma tissue,which was signicantly different from that of 66.67% (16/24) in the carcinomatous metastasis group ( x2=4.038,P < 0.05 ).The positive rate of MMP-9 in the normal human salivary tissues,adenoid cystic carcinoma tissues and mucoepidermoid carcinoma tissues was 10.0% (1/10),67.5% (27/40) and 77.5(31/40) (x2=16.263,P<0.005).Significant difference was found between groups of neurotropism and non-neurotropism on the positive rate of MMP-9 expression in adenoid cystic carcinoma(94.44% vs 63.63%,x2=5.389,P < 0.05 ).Conclusion MMP-9 is correlated with the invasion and metastasis of malignant salivary gland tumors,and can be used as an indicator of potential metastasis.The finding suggests that MMPs suppressor combined with antiangiogenic agents might be a new option to treat saliary gland tumors.
