Prognostic Values of Matrix Metalloproteinase-2 and Tissue Inhibitor of Metalloproteinase-2 Expression in Bladder Cancer [PDF]

The Journal of Urology, 1998
Matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2), which degrades the extracellular matrix or the basement membrane, has an essential role in tumor invasion and metastasis. To evaluate the roles of MMP-2, its inhibitor (tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-2 [TIMP-2]), and its activator (membrane-type matrix metalloproteinase-1 [MT1-MMP]) in tumor invasion or as a ...

Prognostic Significance of Matrix Metalloproteinase 2 and Tissue Inhibitor of Metalloproteinase 2 Expression in Prostate Cancer [PDF]

Modern Pathology, 2003
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are proteolytic enzymes capable of degrading the structural support network for normal and malignant cells, promoting neoplastic cell invasion and metastasis. Tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) maintain connective tissue integrity by modulating MMP activity.

Structural insight into the complex formation of latent matrix metalloproteinase 2 with tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 2 [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2002
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a family of multidomain enzymes involved in the physiological degradation of connective tissue, as well as in pathological states such as tumor invasion and arthritis. Apart from transcriptional regulation, MMPs are controlled by proenzyme activation and a class of specific tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases ...
