Inhibition of metalloproteinase activity by fruit extracts.

摘要: While the metalloproteinase enzymes are essential for development and remodeling of tissues, aberrant over expression these contributes to several pathologic conditions. In particular, in cancer plays a significant role metastasis by providing mechanism invasion spread. The data presented here indicate that water extracts raspberries, blackberries muscadine grapes inhibit activities metalloproteinases 2 9. This inhibition could contribute suppression carcinogenesis diets high fruit content.
