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].
They were present both in the ductal epithelium and in the periductal stroma, suggesting that the TGF-βs are synthesized by the epithelial cells, and possibly stromal cells, and are sequestered in the extracellular matrix.
Since locally elevated TGF-β levels may select for TGF-β-resistant cells, and because TGF-βs can have oncogenic effects on the stroma, it may actually be important for the safety profile of chemopreventive agents to demonstrate that they do not increase TGF-β levels in the at-risk breast.
