## Abstract Matrix metalloproteinaseβ13 (MMPβ13) is involved in the degradation of extracellular matrix in many kinds of tissues. Here we found that hypoxia increased MMPβ13 protein and mRNA levels in primary rat astrocyte cultures. Hypoxia stimulation also increased the secretion of MMPβ13 from as
## Background: The 5-year survival rate of patients with submucosal (sm) esophageal carcinoma continues to be much worse than that with intramucosal (m) lesions. the reasons are unclear, but matrix metalloproteinases (mmps) and membrane type matrix metalloproteinases (mt-mmps) are known to be invol
