Background: MMP-2

Loss of negative growth regulation and high invasive potential are neoplastic traits often associated with abnormal expression of matrix matalloproteinases. MMP2, the signalling mechanism for cells to begin migration, triggers the movement when it splits laminin-5 and exposes and integrin-binding site on this component of epithelial basement membrane. The changed form of laminin was found in tumors and in tissues being altered. The activated form of MMP2, however, is not found in benign tumors. Thus detection of the enzyme is a possible early indicator of tumor activity.
