What is MMP-2 in Recurrent Corneal Erosion about?
The study investigates the presence of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) in human corneal epithelium affected by recurrent erosion compared to normal corneal epithelium. Results show that MMP-2 is significantly upregulated in recurrent erosion samples, suggesting its role in degrading the epithelial anchoring system, which may contribute to recurrent epithelial slippage and erosion. The findings indicate that MMP-2 is primarily localized in basal epithelial cells, highlighting its potential involvement in th
