Exploration of plasma tryptophan levels along with Ki-67 expression binomial investigation for forecasting tumor aggressiveness within invasive ductal breast cancer.

Ki-67 is a histological marker indicating cancer aggressiveness, while tryptophan (TRP) depletion modulates immune responses, including tumor aggressiveness. The study evaluates Ki-67's predictive value in relation to plasma TRP levels in invasive ductal carcinoma of breast cancer, aiming to improve understanding of tumor characteristics and clinical behavior. A study involving 165 women, measured plasma TRP levels and Ki-67 and analyzed their relationship with tumor aggressiveness markers using statistical analyses and predictive models.
