Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), a class of zinc-contained endopeptidases, are closely involved in tumor growth, infiltration, metastasis, and angiogenesis.By virtue of the specifically enzymatic hydrolysis, MMPs have been widely used to turn on imaging and/or therapy function of elaborately designed enzyme-responsive nanoprobes, which is Figure Skating - Clothing - Adult Activewear expected to realize precise diagnosis and treatment of cancer.This review systematically summarizes the classifications of MMPs, their substrates and recognized sequences, and overexpressed tumor types.The advances of MMPs-responsive nanoprobes UNSCENTED DEODORANT for cancer diagnosis and therapy are focused, including trigger mechanism, design principle, and various imaging or therapy modes.Finally, this review analyzes the challenges of MMPs-responsive nanoprobes in clinical application, and provides constructive opinions for future study.
