摘要
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), or matrixins, are a family of zinc endopeptidases that play a key role in both physiological and pathological tissue degradation. Normally, there is a careful balance between cell division, matrix synthesis and matrix degradation, which is under the control of cytokines, growth factors and cell matrix interactions. The MMPs are involved in remodelling during tissue morphogenesis and wound healing.
