A review on MMP-2 modulating agents from natural and synthetic sources and their role in inflammatory bowel disease.
Inflammopharmacology

A review on MMP-2 modulating agents from natural and synthetic sources and their role in inflammatory bowel disease.

MMP-2 regulates tissue remodeling and inflammation in IBD; targeting it might help prevent barrier damage, chronic inflammation, or fibrosis but requires selective approaches to avoid harming normal repair processes.
