Abstract :

The purpose of this study was to compare the expression of matrix metalloproteinase-1 in primary pterygium aftermitomycin C and 5-Fluorouracil subconjunctival injection. This is a cross sectional study. There were 54 subjects included,divided into 2 groups, mitomycin C group (n = 27) and 5-Fluorour acil group (n = 27), were injected a week before incision.Fivetyfour formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded of the pterygium tissue were enrolled in this study. Those samples wereanalyzed immunohistochemically, with MMP-1 monoclonal antibody (IM 135L) to determine the expression of MMP-1.The Results of this study showed, the expression of MMP -1 in mitomycin C group was 13.22 ± 12.59 and 5-Fluorouracil group was12,00 ± 7. There were no statistically signifficant differences between those two groups with P > 0.05 (p = 0.669, Mann-Whitney test).The baseline characteristic between the two groups was similar. In conclusion the use of antiproliferation and antifibrotic agents suchas mitomycin C and 5-fluorourasil as an adjuvant therapy can give some influence in the expression of MMP-1.
