The most common nonmelanoma skin cancers (NMSC) are basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). The incidence of NMSC is 18-20 times higher than the incidence of melanoma. The Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and Matrix Metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) enzymes have both been linked to the development of these diseases but their exact significance is unknown. We conducted a retrospective analysis on 148 adult patients with cutaneous BCC and SCC. Cases were divided according to the sub-types of BCC and the degree of SCC differentiation. Immunohistochemical staining for COX-2 and MMP-1 was performed and analyzed to determine if the expression of these biomarkers were associated with BCC subtypes and the degree of SCC. differentiation. We did not find a significant association of the level of differentiation of SCC with the immunohistochemical expression for MMP-1 or COX-2. There was a significant association between BCC subtypes and immunohistochemical expression for MMP-1; positive expression of this enzyme reduces the odds for the infiltrative subtypes by 90%. A marginally significant association between BCC subtypes and immunohistochemical expression for COX-2 was also found. This enzyme was highly expressed in non-infiltrative basal cell carcinoma types (94%) compared with infiltrative types (71%). In conclusion, we did not find a significant predictor for SCC expression levels for either of two biomarkers, while the expression of MMP-1 in BCC was significantly inversely associated with the infiltrative type (moderate sensitivity and high specificity). Further research with larger sample sizes is needed to precisely determine the role these enzymes have in these diseases.
