- Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are enzymes that can break down proteins in the extracellular matrix and are categorized into six groups based on their functions.
- MMPs play a significant role in various biological processes, including cancer development and metastasis, making them important targets for cancer treatment.
- Advances in research techniques have led to the creation of more selective second-generation MMP inhibitors, improving their effectiveness as potential anticancer drugs compared to earlier broad-spectrum inhibitors.
