RECK
Negatively regulates matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) by suppressing MMP-9 secretion and by direct inhibition of its enzymatic activity. RECK down-regulation by oncogenic signals may facilitate tumor invasion and metastasis. Appears to also regulate MMP-2 and MT1-MMP, which are involved in cancer progression. Interacts with MMP-9. Expressed in various tissues and untransformed cells. It is undetectable in tumor-derived cell lines and oncogenically transformed cells.
