## Abstract Matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)β1 and MMPβ3 genes are associated with tumor cell invasion and metastasis with their promoter polymorphisms influencing the level of transcription. Our study explored the association of these polymorphisms with colorectal cancer risk in a Japanese populatio
A major histopathological abnormality in cutis laxa (CL) is a paucity of elastic structures. The aim of this study was to investigate the gene expression levels of the major matrix degrading factors matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) 1, MMP-2, MMP-3 and MMP-9 in CL. The gene expression levels of MMP-1,
