Hence, in CV, one pole of dividing CT cells is associated with mature ST and the other with the mesenchymal villous core (stroma).
Studies have localized this trimolecular complex to the invadopodia of malignant cells at sites of tissue invasion into stroma [ 43, 44] and serum levels and high tissue expression levels of active MMP-2 are predictors of disease severity and shortened survival in several malignancies [ 15, 16].
Note that the yellow-green signal is of a lighter hue and is specific for the epithelium compared with the darker green autofluorescence seen in the stroma.
When the tissue temperature drops to below 40°C, these bonds can reunite with possible rearrangement of the matrix but without any cellular damage [ 16 ] . Under this consideration the thermal contact of the 49°C preheated PALM gel onto the bare corneal stroma for the in situ molding of the lenticule, would not be expected to induce any irreversible changes of the corneal collagen chains.
A recent study confirms this to be the case in breast cancer, where expression of TSP-1 in stroma adjacent to ductal carcinoma in situ is lost in cases with more aggressive histological features [ 30 ] . There are also reports, however, that fibroblast TSP-1 can induce matrix metalloproteinase-9 in breast tumor cells and gastric cancer tumor cells, and this in turn may lead to a more invasive phenotype [ 14 31 ] . In the present study, TSP-1 was not expressed differentially in the stroma of benign tissue specimens or malignant tissue specimens, nor in the epithelial component of breast tumors with or without metastases.
