## Abstract ## Objective A hallmark of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is invasion of the synovial pannus into cartilage, and this process requires degradation of the collagen matrix. The aim of this study was to explore the role of one of the collagenβdegrading matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), membran
## Abstract The membrane typeβ1 matrix metalloproteinase (MT1βMMP), a protease originally identified in breast carcinoma, is characterized by its capacity to activate other MMPs (MMPβ2 and MMPβ13) and to degrade extracellular matrix. Our study was undertaken to localize and identify the MT1βMMP exp
Membrane type (MT) 1 matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) activates progelatinase A (pro-MMP-2), a type IV collagenase, on the cell surface of tumors; however, its function in breast cancer progression and metastasis is not fully understood. To examine the expression of MT1-MMP in breast cancer cells and
