ABSTRACT: Background
The incidence and mortality of invasive breast cancer (IBC) are increasing annually. Hence, it is urgently needed to determine reliable biomarkers for not only monitoring curative effects, but evaluating prognosis. In present study, we aim to determine the potential role of Carboxypeptidase N1 (CPN1) in IBC tissues on chemotherapeutic efficacy and poor prognosis.Methods
The expression level of CPN1 in IBC tissue samples (n = 123) was quantified by tissue microarray technique and immunohistochemical staining. Moreover, sera of IBC patients (n = 34) that underwent three to five consecutive chemotherapy sessions were collected. The patients were randomly stratified into a training (n = 15) as well as a validation group (n = 19). The expression of serum CA153 and CPN
