Summary: | Highlights • Photoaging and activation of matrix metalloproteinase enzymes (MMPs). • The role of matrix metalloproteinase enzymes in degrading the extracellular matrix components (ECM). • Activation and expression of MMPs in different skin disorders. • The targeting of the proteolytic matrix metalloproteinase enzymes against photocarcinogenesis and natural bioactives as potent matrix metalloproteinase enzyme inhibitors. • Clinical updates of various MMP inhibitors currently in trial stage with the status of natural bioactives having potential to be a part of future photoprotective chemotherapeutic agent. |
