Role of matrix metalloproteinases in uveoscleral outflow
Prostaglandin derivatives form the most widely used medicinal treatments given to glaucoma patients to lower intraocular pressure. Prostaglandins are believed to increase matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) and tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinase (TIMP) activity, leading to increased in aqueous...
