Matrix metalloproteinase-13 refines pathological staging of precancerous colorectal lesions. [PDF]
An exact classification of precancerous stages of colorectal polyps might improve therapy and patients´ outcome. Here we investigate the association between grade of dysplasia and Matrix metalloproteinase-13 (MMP-13) expression in 137 biopsies from patients with cancerous and non-cancerous colorectal adenomas.

Matrix Metalloproteinase 13 Inhibitors for Modulation of Osteoclastogenesis: Enhancement of Solubility and Stability. [PDF]
AbstractMatrix metalloproteinase 13 (MMP‐13) activity has been correlated to breast cancer bone metastasis. It has been proposed that MMP‐13 contributes to bone metastasis through the promotion of osteoclastogenesis. To explore the mechanisms of MMP‐13 action, we previously described a highly efficacious and selective MMP‐13 inhibitor, RF036 ...

Exploring the Genetic Role of Matrix Metalloproteinase-13 Variants in Pterygium Risk. [PDF]
Pterygium is a common ocular surface disorder characterized by abnormal fibrovascular growth and extracellular matrix remodeling, yet its precise molecular etiology remains unclear. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) have been implicated in pterygium pathogenesis.

Proprotein convertase furin inhibits matrix metalloproteinase 13 in a TGFβ-dependent manner and limits osteoarthritis in mice [PDF]
Cartilage loss in osteoarthritis (OA) results from altered local production of growth factors and metalloproteases (MMPs). Furin, an enzyme involved in the protein maturation of MMPs, might regulate chondrocyte function.
