Effect of the Preovulatory Gonadotropin Surge on Matrix Metalloproteinase (MMP)-14, MMP-2, and Tissue Inhibitor of Metalloproteinases-2 Expression Within Bovine Periovulatory Follicular and Luteal Tissue

The matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) have been implicated in the ovulatory process, but the specific roles of individual MMPs are unclear. This study examined the effect of the preovulatory gonadotropin surge on localization and regulation of MMP-2, MMP-14, and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases...
