## Abstract Membrane‐type metalloproteinase‐1 (MT1‐MMP) is a transmembrane metalloproteinase overexpressed in tumors, which plays a major role in the first step of pro‐MMP‐2 activation, leading to the generation of an intermediate 62 kDa species. The second step of MMP‐2 activation that yields to t
## 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
