Metalloproteinase inhibitor 4 is an
enzyme that in humans is encoded by the TIMP4gene.[5][6][7]
This gene belongs to the
tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases gene family. The proteins encoded by this gene family are inhibitors of the matrix metalloproteinases, a group of peptidases involved in degradation of the extracellular matrix. The secreted, netrin domain-containing protein encoded by this gene is involved in regulation of platelet aggregation and recruitment and may play role in hormonal regulation and endometrial tissue remodeling.[7]
