Proteasomal activity and the level of 20S proteasome in breast and ovarian cancer tissues.

Biological Sample	Enzymatic Activity, 10³ U/mg Protein		Level of the 20S Proteasome (α + β), RU
Biological Sample	ChTL	CL	Level of the 20S Proteasome (α + β), RU
Breast tissues (all subtypes), T_1–2N_0–1M₀
Cancer tissues, n = 80	45.6 [19.8; 92.3] *	53.4 [18.4; 197.2] *	0.72 [0.3; 2.5]
Adjacent tissues, n = 80	19.8 [10.3; 42.1]	17.7 [8.3; 43.6]	1.0 [0.3; 3.1]
Ovarian tissues, T₃N_xM₀
Cancer tissues, n = 30	30.0 [26.0; 45.2] **	57.3 [13.6; 127.4] **	1.7 [0.8; 2.9] **
Normal tissues, n = 10	13.0 [7.8; 15.6]	21.3 [11.2; 51.4]	1.0 [0.5; 2.0]

Note: Median and range value [25; 75%], RU–related units. * Significant differences with adjacent breast tissue, p < 0.05; ** Significant differences with normal ovarian tissue, p < 0.05.
