Human desmoid fibroblasts: matrix metalloproteinases, their inhibitors and modulation by Toremifene
BACKGROUND: Desmoid tumour is a benign, non metastasising neoplasm characterised by an elevated deposition of organic macromolecules in the extracellular matrix (ECM). The matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a family of zinc-dependent proteinases involved in the degradation of ECM macromolecules. T...
