The Role of the Matrix Metalloproteinase-9 Gene in Tumor Development and Metastasis: A Narrative Review
Matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) is one of the widely studied enzymes of the extracellular matrix which can degrade various matrix biomolecules. The gene coding for this enzyme has been found to be associated with various multifactorial diseases, including cancer. More specifically, the expression...
