Expression and prognostic impact of matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) in astrocytomas

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Astrocytomas are the most frequent primary brain tumors in adults, and despite aggressive treatment patients often experience recurrence. Survival decreases with increasing tumor grade, and especially patients with grade IV glioblastoma have poor ...

Attenuation of urokinase activity during experimental ischaemia protects the cerebral barrier from damage through regulation of matrix metalloproteinase-2 and NAD(P)H oxidase [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Ischaemic injury impairs the integrity of the blood–brain barrier (BBB). In this study, we investigated the molecular causes of this defect with regard to the putative correlations among NAD(P)H oxidase, plasminogen–plasmin system components, and matrix ...

Amentoflavone, a potent natural matrix metalloproteinase 2 inhibitor

open access: yesNatural Product Research, 2023
Gelatinase A (MMP-2) has been studied and proven to play a vital role in the intrusion and metastasis of cancer. Flavonoids influence on molecular and cellular functions of MMP-2 and thus a systematic investigation of flavonoids against the metalloproteolytic activity of MMP-2 has been performed in this study.
