Dynamic DNA methylation of matrix metalloproteinase-9 in the development of diabetic retinopathy
Diabetes elevates matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) in the retina and its capillary cells, and activated MMP-9 damages mitochondria, accelerating retinal capillary cell apoptosis, a phenomenon which precedes the development of retinopathy. Diabetes also

Matrix Metalloproteinase 9 in Epilepsy: The Role of Neuroinflammation in Seizure Development
Matrix metalloproteinase 9 is a proteolytic enzyme which is recently one of the more often studied biomarkers. Its possible use as a biomarker of neuronal damage in stroke, heart diseases, tumors, multiple sclerosis, and epilepsy is being widely ...

Matrix metalloproteinase 9 gene-MMP9-DNA methylation status in Turkish schizophrenia patients
Schizophrenia is a neuropsychiatric disease caused by disorders in brain development due to genetic and environmental factors. The interactions and mechanisms of the two main etiological factors are not fully understood despite neurobiological, clinical ...

Development of therapies targeting cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) necessitates preclinical model systems that faithfully represent CAF–tumor biology. We established an in vitro coculture system of patient‐derived pancreatic CAFs and tumor cell lines and demonstrated its recapitulation of primary CAF–tumor biology with single‐cell transcriptomics ...

Matrix metalloproteinase-9 as a biomarker predicting male fertility [PDF]
The paper discusses the study of matrix metalloproteinase-9 (ММР-9) content in ejaculate after the hernia repair surgery. The clinical research study is based upon the results of inguinal hernia repair in 68 male patients at the age from 18 to 40.
