## Background: In the current study, the authors investigated the effects of synthetic low molecular weight inhibitors of matrix metalloproteinases (mmps) on the expression and activation of mmp-2 in a three-dimensional tissue system. ## Methods: Rabbit periosteal explants were cultured with or w
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are responsible for the remodeling of the extracellular matrix throughout the body. Inhibitors of these enzymes have been suggested as potential therapeutic agents for use in treatment of cancer. Our observations showed that cleistanthin A, a diphyllin glycoside from
