Matrix metalloproteinase-9 as an independent predictor of recurrence after catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation

open access: yesJournal of Education, Health and Sport, 2017
Objectives: In this study, the serum level of matrix metalloproteinase-9 was studied as an independent predictor of recurrence after catheter ablation of a persistent form of atrial fibrillation. Methods: The study included 46 patients with a persistent

Matrix Metalloproteinases [PDF]

open access: yesScience's STKE, 2000
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) contribute to cell migration and cell proliferation by degrading the extracellular matrix (ECM) and by releasing growth factors bound up in the ECM. The actions of MMPs are held in check by a class of proteins called tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs).

Histopathologic Findings Associated With Matrix Metalloproteinases Proceeding to Recurrence of Primary Spontaneous Pneumothorax in Adolescents

open access: yesFrontiers in Pediatrics, 2021
Background: Primary spontaneous pneumothorax is potentially life-threatening, and its recurrence is always a serious problem. Pathological examination provides molecular insights into the pathophysiology of primary spontaneous pneumothorax.Objectives: To

Interleukin-17 regulates matrix metalloproteinase activity in human pulmonary tuberculosis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Tuberculosis (TB) is characterized by extensive pulmonary matrix breakdown. Interleukin-17 (IL-17) is key in host defence in TB but its role in TB-driven tissue damage is unknown.

Functional relationship between matrix metalloproteinase‐11 and matrix metalloproteinase‐14 [PDF]

open access: yesCancer Medicine, 2014
AbstractMMP‐11 is a key factor in physiopathological tissue remodeling. As an active form is secreted, its activity must be tightly regulated to avoid detrimental effects. Although TIMP‐1 and TIMP‐2 reversibly inhibit MMP‐11, another more drastic scenario, presumably via hydrolysis, could be hypothesized.

Correlation of matrix metalloproteinase 3 and matrix metalloproteinase 9 levels with non-motor symptoms in patients with Parkinson’s disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2022
ObjectiveMatrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are essential for tissue formation, neuronal network remodeling, and blood–brain barrier integrity. MMPs have been widely studied in acute brain diseases.

Acute- and late-phase matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9 activity is comparable in female and male rats after peripheral nerve injury. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
BACKGROUND:In the peripheral nerve, pro-inflammatory matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9 performs essential functions in the acute response to injury. Whether MMP-9 activity contributes to late-phase injury or whether MMP-9 expression or activity after ...

Matrix metalloproteinase 9 level as an indicator for restenosis following cervical and intracranial angioplasty and stenting

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2015
Cervical and intracranial angioplasty and stenting is an effective and safe method of reducing the risk of ischemic stroke, but it may be affected by in-stent restenosis.
