Regulatory mechanisms mediating matrix metalloproteinase-8 effects in oral tissue repair and tongue cancer
Abstract Tissue repair and cancer progression involve similar mechanisms, including degradation of extracellular matrix in which matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) play essential roles. The action of MMPs is important in normal physiological processes but MMPs also contribute to various pathological c...
