Biochem/physiol Actions
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) enzymes play a central role in the maintenance and remodeling of the extracellular matrix. Elevated expression of their activity, caused either by up-regulation of their expression or down-regulation of their cognate inhibitors, which has been implicated in various degenerative disorders, including arthritis, cardiovascular disease, skeletal growth-plate disorders, and cancer metastasis. High levels of MMP-2 are observed in the acute phase of transverse myelitis. It is upregulated in colorectal carcinoma and is associated with poor survival outcome. MMP-2 gene haplotypes are also linked with risk of thoracic aortic dissection, a cardiovascular disorder with high death rate.
