Membrane Type-1 Matrix Metalloproteinase Promotes Human Melanoma Invasion and Growth

Membrane type-I metalloproteinase (MT1-MMP) is a transmembrane metalloproteinase that is critical for tumor cell invasion. MT1-MMP can degrade extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins directly and/or indirectly by activating soluble MMPs such as pro-MMP-2. Although MT1-MMP is upregulated in malignant mel...
