Matrix Metalloproteinases in a Sea Urchin Ligament with Adaptable Mechanical Properties

Mutable collagenous tissues (MCTs) of echinoderms show reversible changes in tensile properties (mutability) that are initiated and modulated by the nervous system via the activities of cells known as juxtaligamental cells. The molecular mechanism underpinning this mechanical adaptability has still...
