Cell migration is essential to direct embryonic cells to specific sites at which their developmental fates are ultimately determined. However, the mechanism by which cell motility is regulated in embryonic development...
Tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) modulate extracellular matrix remodeling during embryonic develop- ment and disease. TIMP-3 expression was examined during Xenopus laevis embryogenesis: TIMP-3 transcrip...
