Matrix metalloproteinases in the mouse retina: a comparative study of expression patterns and MMP antibodies
1 Dec 2015
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), a family of Zn(2+)-dependent endoproteases, have been shown to act as fine regulators of both health and disease. Limited research revealed that they are essential to maintaining ocular physiology and inordinate MMP activities have been linked to several neurodegenerative disorders of the retina, including age-related macular degeneration, proliferative diabetic...
