Abstract:
Doxycycline is a broad-spectrum antimicrobial agent used in clinical for a long time. In recent years, many studies showed that its pharmacological activities of anti-tumor, heart function improvement, nerve protection and antiasthma depended on its inhibition of matrix metalloproteinase ( MMPs) . In the present paper,the new pharmacological actions of doxycycline were reviewed to promote the applications in clinics.
