Pathophysiological Role of Chymase-Activated Matrix Metalloproteinase-9
Biomedicines, 2022 Chymase present in mast cells can directly form matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9 from proMMP-9. Chymase-activated MMP-9 has been reportedly closely related to the pathogenesis of various diseases, and inflammation-related diseases in particular ...

Osteopontin is proteolytically processed by matrix metalloproteinase 9 [PDF]
Canadian Journal of Physiology and Pharmacology, 2015 Osteopontin is robustly upregulated following myocardial infarction (MI), which suggests that it has an important role in post-MI remodeling of the left ventricle (LV). Osteopontin deletion results in increased LV dilation and worsened cardiac function.
