Asporin increases the extracellular matrix cross-links and inhibits the cancer cell migration by Kimberly Hernandez, Caitlin H Nguyen, Girdhari Rijal

“…Background Migrating strategies of the triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) together with its role in the establishment of tumor microenvironment (TME), supporting metastasis, have been extensively studied. Extracellular matrix (ECM) is a major player for the TME, establishing the 3D spatial networks with interconnected pores necessary for the mechano-physiological function of the cells. …”

Matrix metalloproteinase-9, its inhibitor-1 and interleukines in experimental traumatic brain injury by S. V. Ziablitsev, Ya. S. Yuzkiv

“…Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is accompanied by high rates of morbidity and mortality in both developed and undeveloped countries that makes it one of the most actual medical and social problems. In recent years matrix metalloproteinases are in increasing interest while studying TBI pathogenesis because of their ability to increase permeability of the blood-brain barrier and to cause nervous tissue matrix reorganization. …”
