Description : | Matrix metalloproteinase-7 (MMP-7) also known as matrilysin and PUMP (EC 3.4.24.23) cleaves a number of substrates including collagen types IV and X, elastin, fibronectin, gelatin, laminin and proteoglycans. MMP-7 is closely related to the stromelysin family members but is encoded by a different gene. MMP-7 is the smallest of all the MMPs consisting of a pro-peptide domain and a catalytic domain. It lacks the hemopexin-like domain common to other members of the MMPs. MMP-7 is secreted as a 28 kDa proenzyme and can be activated in vitro by organomercurials and trypsin and in vivo by MMP-3 to a 18 kDa active MMP-7 enzyme. Once activated, MMP-7 can activate pro-MMP-1 and pro-MMP-9 but not pro-MMP-2. MMP-7 is widely expressed having been reported in elevated levels in cycling endometrium as well as in colorectal cancers and adenomas, hepatocellular carcinomas, rectal carcinomas, and approximately 50% of gliomas. |
Source : | Escherichia Coli. |

Q&As (6)
Ask a questionMMP7 overexpression has been linked to various diseases, including cancer, inflammatory disorders, and tissue fibrosis.
MMP7 is involved in the degradation of extracellular matrix components during inflammation, influencing tissue damage and repair processes.
Developing specific inhibitors that target MMP7 activity is a potential approach for therapeutic interventions, particularly in diseases where MMP7 plays a detrimental role.
Several MMP inhibitors have been investigated, and some show promise in controlling MMP7 activity. However, their clinical use is still under research.
MMP7 facilitates cancer cell invasion and metastasis by degrading the extracellular matrix, allowing cancer cells to invade surrounding tissues and spread to distant organs.
Yes, elevated levels of MMP7 have been observed in the serum or tissues of cancer patients, making it a potential biomarker for certain types of cancer.
