Author ProfileAbstract
Cutis laxa is a connective tissue disease, which is either inherited or
acquired with various clinical presentation. Increased level of MMP-2
and MMP-9 might be associated with the cutis laxa disease. However, our
findings in current experience need to be validated in larger clinical
settings.
