Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) constitute a family of extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling proteinases implicated in physiological and pathological processes that include morphogenesis, wound healing, tissue repair and the progression of diseases such as arthritis, cancer and cardiovascular disease. MMPs are the principal mediators of these processes because they regulate both cell–cell and cell–ECM interactions; they modify matrix structure,...
