Abstract

The relationship between expression of extracellular matrix degradative enzymes, angiogenesis and survival of multistage bladder cancer was determined. Expression of 3 extracellular matrix degradative enzymes (metalloproteinase-2, -9 and heparanase) and microvessel formation were examined in 40 rese...
