Pan-cancer analysis of the prognostic and immunological role of matrix metalloproteinase 9
28 Jul 2023
Abstract excerpt
Matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP9), a zinc ion-dependent endopeptidase, is one of the most complex matrix metalloproteinases in the gelatinase family. During tissue remodeling, MMP9 leads to gelatin and collagen degradation, which in turn promotes tumor invasion and metastasis. However, comprehensive pan-cancer analysis has not been performed for MMP9. In addition, the diagnostic and prognostic value of MMP9 as a...
