MMP2, metalloproteinase-2: Click to Expand ⟱
Source:
Type:
Matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) is an enzyme that plays a significant role in the degradation of extracellular matrix components, which is crucial for various physiological processes, including tissue remodeling, wound healing, and angiogenesis.
Elevated levels of MMP-2 have been associated with poor prognosis in various cancers, including breast, lung, and colorectal cancers.
MMP2 and MMP9: two enzymes are critical to tumor invasion.


Melanoma, Melanoma Skin Cancer: Click to Expand ⟱
Melanoma is a rare form of skin cancer. It is more likely to invade nearby tissues and spread to other parts of the body than other types of skin cancer.
