## Abstract Matrix metalloproteinaseβ2 (MMPβ2) and β9 (MMPβ9) play an important role in cancer initiation, invasion, and metastasis. The aim of this study was to investigate whether common genetic variants in these two key MMPs are associated with the development and progression of colorectal cance
## Abstract A variety of susceptibility genes have been associated with cancer but definitive conclusions have been difficult to draw partly hampered by the small number of subjects in each study. We undertook a comprehensive genetic metaβanalysis of all matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) genes investi
## Abstract A key feature in the malignant behavior of glioblastoma is the tendency to invade host brain tissue surrounding the primary tumor site. Several members of the matrix metalloproteinase family are thought to contribute to this invasive capacity. A single nucleotide polymorphism has been d
