Modified STAT3 increases the amount of MMP9. 3 / 3
| 3

reach
"A number of studies have demonstrated that the expression of activated STAT3 modulated metastasis of tumor cells by promoting gene transcription of MMP2 and MMP9."

reach
"Stable expression of active STAT3 increased matrix metalloproteinase MMP-9 mRNA levels in MCF-7 cells, indicating that it too is regulated by STAT3."

reach
"Constructive expression of STAT3 can up-regulate the expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9, which are able to efficiently degrade the extracellular matrix and basement membrane, promoting invasion and metastasis of cancer cells."
