Gene Polymorphisms and Circulating Levels of MMP-2 and MMP-9: A Review of Their Role in Breast Cancer Risk
Bibliographic record
Abstract
MMP-2 and MMP-9 genes have been suggested to play a role in breast cancer. Their functions have been associated with invasion and metastasis of breast cancer; however, their involvement in the development of the disease is not well-established. Herein, we reviewed the literature investigating the association between circulating levels and polymorphisms of MMP-2 and MMP-9 and breast cancer risk. Various studies report conflicting results regarding the relationship of polymorphisms in MMP-2 and MMP-9 and breast cancer risk. Nevertheless, it appears that the T allele in rs243865 and rs2285053 in MMP-2 are associated with reduced risk of breast cancer. In addition, high levels of latent form and low levels of active form of MMP-2 were observed in breast cancer patients compared to controls. For MMP-9, high latent levels and low total levels were found in breast cancer patients compared to controls. Additional studies are needed to comprehend the role of these genes in breast carcinogenesis.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
