Unexpected timely fracture union in matrix metalloproteinase 9 deficient mice. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
Immediately following a fracture, a fibrin laden hematoma is formed to prevent bleeding and infection. Subsequently, the organized removal of fibrin, via the protease plasmin, is essential to permit fracture repair through angiogenesis and ossification ...

The Significance of Matrix Metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9) and Metalloproteinase 2 (MMP-2) in Urinary Bladder Cancer

Biomedicines, 2023
Introduction: Urinary bladder cancer is a serious oncological problem that is the cause of many deaths worldwide. The processes of metastasis and origination of local tumor invasion depend on the extracellular matrix (ECM) degradation.

Ras, metastasis, and matrix metalloproteinase 9

, 2001
Publisher Summary This chapter describes the Ras, metastasis, and matrix metalloproteinase 9. The process of metastasis involves breakdown and penetration of intercellular matrix and basement membranes. The basement membrane in particular is a barrier to tumor invasion, intravasation, and extravasation.
