Leptin and Pro-Inflammatory Stimuli Synergistically Upregulate MMP-1 and MMP-3 Secretion in Human Gingival Fibroblasts. [PDF]
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 Rebirth of Matrix Metalloproteinase Inhibitors: Moving Beyond the Dogma
The pursuit of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) inhibitors began in earnest over three decades ago. Initial clinical trials were disappointing, resulting in a negative view of MMPs as therapeutic targets.

Matrix Metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) as a Cancer Biomarker and MMP-9 Biosensors: Recent Advances
As one of the most widely investigated matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), MMP-9 is a significant protease which plays vital roles in many biological processes. MMP-9 can cleave many extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins to regulate ECM remodeling.

Protease-sensitive atelocollagen hydrogels promote healing in a diabetic wound model [PDF]
The design of exudate-managing wound dressings is an established route to accelerated healing, although such design remains a challenge from material and manufacturing standpoints. Aiming towards the clinical translation of knowledge gained in vitro with highly swollen rat tail collagen hydrogels, this study investigated the healing capability in a ...

Facial structure of matrix convex sets [PDF]
This article investigates the notions of exposed points and (exposed) faces in the matrix convex setting. Matrix exposed points in finite dimensions were first defined by Kriel in 2019. Here this notion is extended to matrix convex sets in infinite-dimensional vector spaces.

Role of Matrix Metalloproteinase-2 in Eosinophil-Mediated Airway Remodeling
Airway remodeling is responsible for the progressive decline of lung function in bronchial asthma. Matrix metalloproteinase-2 and fibroblast-to-myofibroblast transition are involved in tissue remodeling.

ASAP-SML: An Antibody Sequence Analysis Pipeline Using Statistical Testing and Machine Learning [PDF]
Antibodies are capable of potently and specifically binding individual antigens and, in some cases, disrupting their functions. The key challenge in generating antibody-based inhibitors is the lack of fundamental information relating sequences of antibodies to their unique properties as inhibitors.
