Dysregulated Expression of Adamalysin-Thrombospondin Genes in Human Breast Carcinoma
1 Apr 2004
Abstract excerpt
The adamalysin-thrombospondin (ADAMTS) proteinases are a relatively newly described branch of the metzincin family that contain metalloproteinase, disintegrin, and thrombospondin motifs. They have been implicated in various cellular events, including cleavage of proteoglycans, extracellular matrix degradation, inhibition of angiogenesis, gonadal development, and organogenesis. However, in many cases, their normal...
