Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a family of zinc‐dependent proteolytic enzymes that
function mainly in the extracellular matrix, where they contribute to the development …

Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are members of an enzyme family that require a zinc ion
at their active site. Active at neutral pH, they catalyze normal turnover of extracellular matrix …

In skeletal muscles, levels and activity of Matrix MetalloProteinases (MMPs) and Tissue
Inhibitors of MetalloProteinases (TIMPs) have been involved in myoblast migration, fusion …

Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are zinc‐dependent proteases capable of degrading
extracellular matrix components. The activity of these proteases is tightly regulated through …

Matrix metalloproteases (MMPs) are key regulatory molecules in the formation, remodeling,
and degradation of extracellular matrix (ECM) components in both physiological and …

Musculoskeletal disorders include rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, sarcopenia, injury,
stiffness, and bone loss. The prevalence of these conditions is frequent among elderly …

The family of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) comprises endopeptidases that are capable
of degrading all extracellular matrix components. Given these actions, it is conceivable that …

Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are zinc‐dependent endopeptidases that were first
discovered as proteases, which target and cleave extracellular proteins. During the past 20 …

PROTEOLYTIC enzyme expression was studied by matrix metalloproteinases (MMP)
immunoreactivity (-IR) in muscle biopsies from patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis …

Imbalance in the expression of matrix metalloproteinases and their inhibitors contribute
considerably to abnormal connective tissue degradation prevalent in various orthopaedic …
