Overexpression of MMP-8, or inadequate control by TIMPs, can be associated with a lot of pathological conditions: psoriasis, sclerosis, osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, osteoporosis, Alzheimer's disease, tumor growh and metastasis.<ref>[http://www.enzim.hu/~lbarna/articles/19173605.pdf "Extra Binding Region Induced by Non-Zinc Chelating Inhibitors into the S1′ Subsite of Matrix Metalloproteinase 8"]</ref>

Moreover, what makes this MMP unique is its exclusive pattern of expression in inflammatory conditions.<ref>PMID:9727011</ref>
Neutrophil collagenase or collagenase 2 (MMP-8) is unique among the family of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) because of its exclusive pattern of expression in inflammatory conditions.<ref>PMID:9727011</ref>
