Association of matrix metalloproteinases-9 gene polymorphisms with genetic susceptibility to esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.

DNA and cell biology - 1 Oct 2008

Wu Jin, Zhang Lin, Luo Hao, Zhu Zhendong, Zhang Conghai, Hou Yiping

Abstract excerpt

Matrix metalloproteinases-9 (MMP-9) plays important roles in tumor invasion and metastasis by degrading extracellular matrix components. Variations in the DNA sequence in the MMP-9 gene may lead to altered MMP-9 production and/or activity, and so this may modulate an individual's susceptibility t...
