Roles of Matrix Metalloproteinases and Their Natural Inhibitors in Prostate Cancer Progression
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), a group of zinc-dependent endopeptidases involved in the degradation of the extracellular matrix, play an important role in tissue remodeling associated with various physiological processes such as morphogenesis, angiogenesis, and tissue repair, as well as pathologi...
