Matrix Metalloproteinase 3 Polymorphism [PDF]
Clinical Cancer Research, 2004 Abstract Purpose: Treatment of head and neck cancer often associates different therapeutic modalities, including surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy. In an attempt to optimize therapeutics, the identification of molecular markers linked to response to chemotherapy remains important.

Matrix Metalloproteinase 3 Is a Mediator of Pulmonary Fibrosis [PDF]
The American Journal of Pathology, 2011 Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) may be triggered by epithelial injury that results in aberrant production of growth factors, cytokines, and proteinases, leading to proliferation of myofibroblasts, excess deposition of collagen, and destruction of the lung architecture. The precise mechanisms and key signaling mediators responsible for this aberrant

Matrix metalloproteinase-3 in brain physiology and neurodegeneration [PDF]
Advances in Clinical and Experimental Medicine, 2019 Structural and functional synapse reorganization is one of the key issues of learning and memory mechanisms. Specific proteases, called matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), play a pivotal role during learning-related modification of neural circuits. Different types of MMPs modify the extracellular perisynaptic environment, leading to the plastic changes ...
