Prospective study of matrix metalloproteinase-9 and risk of myocardial infarction and stroke in older men and women

, 2009
OBJECTIVES: The endopeptidase matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) is implicated in atherosclerotic plaque rupture. We investigate prospective associations between MMP-9 and MI or stroke in an older general population cohort, accounting for established and

Engineered extracellular vesicles enriched with the miR‐214/199a cluster enhance the efficacy of chemotherapy in ovarian cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Loss of the miR‐214/199a cluster is associated with recurrence in ovarian cancer. Engineered small extracellular vesicles (m214‐sEVs) elevate miR‐214‐3p/miR‐199a‐5p in tumor cells, suppress β‐catenin, TLR4, and YKT6 signaling, reprogram tumor‐derived sEV cargo, reduce chemoresistance and migration, and enhance carboplatin efficacy and survival in ...

Epidermal Development and Wound Healing in Matrix Metalloproteinase 13-Deficient Mice [PDF]

Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 2006
Degradation of the extracellular matrix, which is an indispensable step in tissue remodelling processes such as embryonic development and wound healing of the skin, has been attributed to collagenolytic activity of members of the matrix metalloproteinase family (MMPs).

Leptin and Pro-Inflammatory Stimuli Synergistically Upregulate MMP-1 and MMP-3 Secretion in Human Gingival Fibroblasts

, 2016
Introduction Gingival fibroblast-mediated extracellular matrix remodelling is implicated in the pathogenesis of periodontitis, yet the stimuli that regulate this response are not fully understood. The immunoregulatory adipokine leptin is detectable in

Hijacking emergency granulopoiesis: Neutrophil ontogeny and reprogramming in cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Neutrophils are highly plastic innate immune cells; their functions in cancer extend beyond the tumour microenvironment. This Review summarises current understanding of neutrophil maturation and heterogeneity and highlights tumour‐induced granulopoiesis as a systemic programme that expands immature, immunosuppressive neutrophils via tumour‐derived ...

Matrix Metalloproteinase‐13 Is Highly Expressed in Destructive Periodontal Disease Activity

Journal of Periodontology, 2006
Background: Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) participate in extracellular matrix degradation in physiological and pathological conditions. The available evidence suggests that MMP‐13 plays a significant role in both the initiation and progress of bone resorption.

Evaluation of the expression of matrix metalloproteinase 9 and neutrophil gelatinase associated lipocalin in serum, urine and tumoral tissues of female dogs suffering from mammary gland tumors [PDF]

, 2013
In human medicine, it has been shown recently that the level of expression of matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) and neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) in serum, urine, and breast tissue were significantly increased in patients with breast

Adaptor protein CIN85 potentiates the motility of osteosarcoma cells via the Akt/mTOR and MMP2‐COL3A1 axis

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
CIN85 is highly expressed in osteosarcoma, particularly in metastatic lesions. Its overexpression increases cell migration and Matrigel invasion, while silencing CIN85 suppresses these behaviors. Transcriptome analysis shows that CIN85 regulates MMP2, COL3A1, and Akt/mTOR signaling. Targeting these pathways reverses CIN85‐induced motility, highlighting

Effects of Flavonoids on Matrix Metalloproteinase-13 Expression of Interleukin-1β–Treated Articular Chondrocytes and Their Cellular Mechanisms: Inhibition of c-Fos/AP-1 and JAK/STAT Signaling Pathways

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2011
.: To identify the therapeutic potential for cartilage degradation and its action mechanisms, the effects of naturally-occurring flavonoids on matrix metalloproteinase-13 (MMP-13) induction were examined in the human chondrocyte cell line SW1353 ...

The calpastatin-derived calpain inhibitor CP1B reduces mRNA expression of matrix metalloproteinase-2 and-9 and invasion by leukemic THP-1 cells [PDF]

, 2003
The ubiquitous proteases μ- and m-calpain are Ca2+-dependent cysteine endopeptidases. Besides involvement in a variety of physio(patho)logical processes, recent studies suggest a pivotal role of calpains in differentiation of hematopoietic cells and ...
