MMP8 increases tongue carcinoma cell–cell adhesion and diminishes migration via cleavage of anti-adhesive FXYD5

Abstract Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) modify bioactive factors via selective processing or degradation resulting in tumour-promoting or tumour-suppressive effects, such as those by MMP8 in various cancers. We mapped the substrates of MMP8 to elucidate its previously shown tumour-protective role...
