TIMP1 Cancer Research Results

TIMP1, Tissue Inhibitor of Metalloproteinases-1: Click to Expand ⟱

Source:

Type:

A protein that plays a role in the regulation of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), which are enzymes involved in the breakdown of the extracellular matrix.
TIMP-1 is overexpressed in various types of cancer, including breast, lung, colon, and prostate cancer. High levels of TIMP-1 have been associated with poor prognosis and increased risk of metastasis (cancer spread) in some cancers.
