A Novel P-III Metalloproteinase from Bothrops barnetti Venom Degrades Extracellular Matrix Proteins, Inhibits Platelet Aggregation, and Disrupts Endothelial Cell Adhesion via α5β1 Integrin Receptors to Arginine–Glycine–Aspartic Acid (RGD)-Containing Molecules

Toxins
Viperid snake venoms are notably abundant in metalloproteinases (proteins) (SVMPs), which are primarily responsible for inducing hemorrhage and disrupting the hemostatic process and tissue integrity in envenomed victims.

Bioadhesive Hydrogel With Polyphenol‐Armored Nanogene Rejuvenates Chondrocyte Senescence for Aged Osteoarthritis Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An adhesive hydrogel depot with polyphenol‐armored nanogenes is developed for treating aged osteoarthritis. This system maintains miR‐140 bioactivity, prolongs its intra‐articular retention, and enhances transfection into chondrocytes, leading to the downregulation of senescence‐associated pathways.

A Disintegrin and Metalloproteases (ADAMs): Activation, Regulation and Mechanisms of Catalysis [PDF]

, 2021
In the late 1980s, Paul Primakoff and colleagues showed that fertilization could be blocked in an in vitro sperm–egg fusion assay by inoculating them in the presence of a disintegrin and metalloprotease (ADAM)-specific antibody [...

Lesion Site‐Targeted Microspheres Modulate Nav1.7‐Related Signaling for Osteoarthritis Treatment

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Cartilage‐targeted carbamazepine‐loaded WYRGRL‐modified composite microspheres (CBZ/WCOM) anchor to exposed type II collagen in osteoarthritic lesions and release carbamazepine under acidic conditions. This bind‐then‐release platform modulates Nav1.7‐related sodium signaling, Na⁺/Ca²⁺ exchanger‐associated Ca2+ dynamics, and heat shock protein 70 ...

Matrix metalloproteinases, a disintegrin and metalloproteinases, and a disintegrin and metalloproteinases with thrombospondin motifs in non-neoplastic diseases. [PDF]

Pathology international, 2010
Cellular functions within tissues are strictly regulated by the tissue microenvironment which comprises extracellular matrix and extracellular matrix-deposited factors such as growth factors, cytokines and chemokines. These molecules are metabolized by matrix metalloproteinases (MMP), a disintegrin and metalloproteinases (ADAM) and ADAM with ...

CD31+ Cell Enrichment Enhances Therapeutic Effects of Stromal Vascular Fraction in Experimental Primary Osteoarthritis: A Preclinical Study in the Dunkin Hartley Guinea Pig Model

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Both SVF and CD31+ SVF improve spontaneous osteoarthritis, but CD31+ enrichment refines the therapeutic profile rather than broadly enhancing all effects. More distinct benefits are observed in extracellular matrix remodeling, osteochondral integrity, and subchondral/trabecular bone preservation, supporting CD31+‐enriched SVF as a biologically enhanced
