Zusammenfassung: | Background:
The metastasis suppressor 1 (MTSS1) is a newly discovered protein putatively involved in tumour progression and metastasis.
Material and Methods:
Immunohistochemical expression of MTSS1 was analysed in 264 non-small-cell lung carcinomas (NSCLCs).
Results:
The metastasis suppressor 1 was significantly overexpressed in NSCLC compared with normal lung (
P
=0.01). Within NSCLC, MTSS1 expression was inversely correlated with pT-stage (
P
=0.019) and histological grading (
