Matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9), a 92-kd gelatinase/type IV collagenase, has been implicated as playing an important role in cancer invasion and metastasis. A previous study showed that serum type IV collagenase activity correlated with metastasis by hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The aims of this study were to determine the plasma levels of immunoreactive MMP-9 in patients with HCC and to compare the levels with the clinical features including vascular invasion.
