Overexpression of matrix metalloproteinase-2 mediates phenotypic transformation of lens epithelial cells.

Transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) is known to be a causative factor in pathological fibrosis and the metastasis of cancer cells, through effects on molecules of the extracellular matrix (ECM). We evaluated the influence of TGF-beta(1) on the gene expression of matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MM...
