簡要描述：MMP14 may be an activator of pro gelatinase A and is expressed in fibroblast cells during both wound healing and human cancer progression. MMP14 is expressed in very low levels and may require stimulation with concanavolin A or the phorbol ester TPA to stimulate production of MMP14.
Matrix metalloproteinase-14 precursor is endopeptidase that degrades various components of the extracellular matrix, such as collagen. Activates progelatinase A. Essential for pericellular collagenolysis and m
