Serum MMP-8 and TIMP-1 as prognostic biomarkers in gastric cancer
Tumor Biology, 2018 Despite gastric cancer being rare nowadays in Western countries, it remains one of the leading causes of cancer death worldwide. The course of the disease varies, so the individual gastric cancer patient’s prognosis is difficult to determine.
