Abstract:
0.05 ); the positive percentage of IGFBP-2 was statistically higher in breast cancer with metastasis in lymph node than those without metastasis in lymph node (P 0.05 ,r_s= 0.271 ). CONCLUSION: The expression of IGFBP-2 may play an important role in the progression, invasion and metastasis of breast cancer, and there is a positive correlation between the expression of IGFBP-2 and ER in breast cancer. It demonstrates that over expression of IGFBP-2 may be a reference to evaluate unfavourable prognosis of breast cancer.
