## Abstract The effects of glycineβextended gastrin (GβGly) on the invasion by colon cancer cells through stromal extracellular matrix and the role of metalloproteinases (MMPs) in this invasion were investigated. We found that 10^β9^β10^β6^ M GβGly significantly increased the invasiveness of 2 huma

To investigate morphological changes occurring during cutaneous photoageing, a correlation between the number of infiltrating cells in the dermis and the degree of collagen damage was examined using sections from clinically normal chronically sun-exposed and sun-protected skin of Japanese female sub
In vitro human skin fibroblasts aging was characterized by a continuous increase of collagenase mRNA levels. On the contrary, TIMPβ1 mRNA level decreased only at late passages (> 65% of proliferative life span). Type I and III mRNA levels showed a high variability depending on cell strains studied.
