abstract：:Polymorphonuclear neutrophil (PMN) migration across basement membrane is thought to be dependent on the degradation of membrane constituents. PMN gelatinase B, a metalloproteinase able to degrade type IV collagen, may be involved in this phenomenon. PMN gelatinase B is released in the extracellular medium as a latent ...
