## Abstract Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) play critical roles in egg fertilization, embryonic development, wound repair, cancer, and inflammatory and neurologic diseases. This subfamily of metzincin peptidases can cleave extracellular matrix (ECM) and pericellular proteins that have profound eff
## Abstract Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a gene family of neutral proteases that are important in normal development, wound healing, and a wide variety of pathological processes, including the spread of metastatic cancer cells, arthritic destruction of joints, atherosclerosis, and neuroinfl
## Abstract Although matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are increasingly being implicated in several pathologies of the nervous system, it is not yet clear what role they play in normal neurobiological processes. We review the expression of extracellular matrix (ECM) components as well as MMPs and ti
