MMPinhibiting
MMP inhibiting refers to the process of blocking the activity of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). MMPs are a family of enzymes that play a crucial role in the breakdown of extracellular matrix components, such as collagen and elastin. This breakdown is a normal and necessary process involved in tissue remodeling, wound healing, and embryonic development. However, aberrant MMP activity has been implicated in a variety of pathological conditions.
Conditions where MMP inhibiting is a focus of research and therapeutic interest include cancer, where MMPs
Therapeutic strategies aimed at MMP inhibiting involve the use of small molecule inhibitors or biologic agents
