Abstract excerpt
The matrix metalloproteases (MMPs) play important roles in invasion, metastasis and angiogenesis in various cell types. Tissue inhibitor of metalloprotease (TIMP)-2, an endogenous inhibitor of MMP-2, has been shown to inhibit invasion and metastasis. We have previously shown that MMP-2 is responsible for the H-ras-induced invasive and migrative phenotypes in MCF10A human breast epithelial cells. Here, we...
