physiological function | matrilysins, i.e. MMP-7 or matrilysin-1, and MMP-26 or matrilysin-2, are involved in cell proliferation, apoptosis, invasion, and metastasis. Matrilysins have a role in the process of tissue remodeling and growth in ameloblastomas and adenomatoid odontogenic tumors, but it does not relate to the their distinct patterns of aggressiveness | Homo sapiens |
