The influence of heparin and a heparin fragment devoid of anticoagulant activity on the production of matrix metalloproteinases and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases by human dermal fibroblasts was studied. Doses (0.1-400 g/ml) responses were performed and data obtained were similar whatever h
Degradation of the extracellular matrix (ECM) is an essential step in tumour invasion and metastasis. The matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) each have different substrate specificities within the ECM and are important in its degradation. MMP activity is dependent on the levels of activated MMP and tis
