The Elastin Connection and Melanoma Progression

Matrikines, i.e. matrix fragments with cytokine-like properties, have been ascribed a major role in regulating tumour progression. The invasive front of melanoma is characterised by intense fragmentation of dermal elastic fibres. Elastase-mediated elastolysis liberates elastin fragments, i.e. elasto...
