Popis: Changes in the proteasome chymotrypsin-like activity in mammary and thyroid carcinomas in comparison with the adjacent tissue were studied at stages T(1-4)N(0-3)M(0) and T(2-3)N(0-1)M(0), respectively. The activities changed in a wave-like manner over the course of mammary carcinoma growth in cases with and without metastases. The minimum increment of the activity in the tumor was recorded during the T(2)N(0) stage in the absence of local metastases. The increment of the activity reached the peak in N(1) tumors of the same size with metastases. The activities in the tumor and adjacent tissues virtually did not differ during the T(3-4)N(1-3) stages. The time course of proteasome activity changes in thyroid tumors of the studied stages was similar to that in mammary carcinoma. The results can be used for development of methods for evaluating the aggressiveness of mammary and thyroid tumors.
