The relationship between tissue inhibitor metalloproteinase-1 with colorectal cancer and tissue inhibitor metalloproteinase-1 as a predictor of colorectal cancer
Abstract:Colorectal cancer is reported as the third most common case worldwide in men and accounts for 10% of all cancers. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) comprise a family of zinc-dependent endopeptidases that affect the degradation and remodeling of extracellular components and contribute to the three Hallmarks of cancer. TIMP-1 is an endogenous MMP inhibitor with multiple functions related to the tumor microenvironment and colorectal cancer development. This study used a prospective cohort study design to prove tha… Show more
