Matrix metalloproteinases in atherothrombosis.

Progress in cardiovascular diseases - 1 Jan 2000

Bäck Magnus, Ketelhuth Daniel F J, Agewall Stefan

Abstract excerpt

The metalloproteinases (MMPs, matrixins) are zinc-containing endopeptidases involved in the metabolism of extracellular matrix as well as in the cleavage of other proteins. The MMP family currently consists of 28 enzymes with somewhat different activities. The members are in part categorized into groups according to either structure or preferred substrates and referred to as collagenases, gelatinases,...
