Overexpression of MMPs in Corneas Requiring Penetrating and Deep Anterior Lamellar Keratoplasty

PURPOSE: Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) comprise a family of zinc-dependent endopeptidases involved in wound healing processes, including neovascularization and fibrosis. We assessed MMP protein expression levels in diseased corneas of patients requiring penetrating and deep anterior lamellar kera...
