Abstract

This review addresses the main structural types of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) inhibitors - hydroxamic acid derivatives, sulfonamides, bisphosphonates, compounds combining phosphoryl and hydroxamate groups, and functional derivatives of phosphonic and phosphinic acids. The selectivity of the inhibitory actions of these substances in relation to different types of MMP and the potential for the practical application of these substances in cancer treatment are discussed.
