Segment­ specific expression of MMP/TIMP in the oviduct of llama (Lama glama) and gelatinolytic activity in the oviductal fluid

Int. j. morphol; 35 (2), 2017
Oviductal molecules have the potential to improve the reproductive biotechnologies. In camelids, knowledge and assessment of the oviductal environment are necessary to successfully develop species-specific reproductive technologies, especially because of the camelids reproductive particularities. Among t...

Relationship between matrix metalloproteinases and the occurrence and development of ovarian cancer

Braz. j. med. biol. res; 50 (6), 2017
Ovarian cancer is one of the most malignant genital cancers, with a high mortality rate. Many researchers have suggested that matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) have remarkably high expression in ovarian cancer tissues. MMPs are considered to be related to the occurrence, development, invasion and metastas...
