Metalloproteinases and Their Inhibitors: Potential for the Development of New Therapeutics

open access: yesCells, 2020
The metalloproteinase (MP) family of zinc-dependent proteases, including matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), a disintegrin and metalloproteases (ADAMs), and a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs (ADAMTSs) plays a crucial role in ...

Tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases are proteolytic targets of matrix metalloproteinase 9

open access: yesMatrix Biology, 2023
Extracellular proteolysis and turnover are core processes of tissue homeostasis. The predominant matrix-degrading enzymes are members of the Matrix Metalloproteinase (MMP) family. MMPs extensively degrade core matrix components in addition to processing a range of other factors in the extracellular, plasma membrane, and intracellular compartments.
