Absolute matrix order ideals in absolute matrix order unit spaces [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
In this paper, we define and study absolute matrix order ideals in absolute matrix order unit spaces. As an application of absolute matrix order unit property, we construct some kinds of absolute matrix order ideals in absolute matrix order unit spaces.

Matrix metalloproteinases in tuberculosis [PDF]

European Respiratory Journal, 2011
Tuberculosis (TB) remains a global health pandemic. Infection is spread by the aerosol route andMycobacterium tuberculosismust drive lung destruction to be transmitted to new hosts. Such inflammatory tissue damage is responsible for morbidity and mortality in patients.

Engineering Topographical Cues to Enhance Neural Regeneration in Spinal Cord Injury: Overcoming Challenges and Advancing Therapies

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Spinal cord injury (SCI) poses significant challenges for regeneration due to a series of secondary injury mechanisms. How to use biomaterial approach to target the failed regeneration after SCI remains a critical challenge. This review systematically evaluates current strategies to optimize biomaterial topographies for neurite outgrowth, axonal ...

Matrix metalloproteinases at a glance [PDF]

Journal of Cell Science, 2004
The matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are one of the major families of proteinases that play key roles in the responses of cells to their microenvironment. Most notably the MMPs have the combined capacity to degrade all the components of the extracellular matrix.

Aptamer Functionalized Hydrogel Dressings for Post‐Surgery Tumor Recurrence Inhibition and Tissue Reconstruction

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Post‐surgical tumor therapy struggles with recurrence and inefficient healing. Anti‐tumor DNA aptamer functionalized gelatin hydrogels, Apt‐GelMA, simultaneously address both issues by suppressing tumor regrowth via targeted tumor cell inhibition and enhancing wound healing through improved cell adhesion and migration. Their biocompatibility, stability,

Relationships between MMP-2, MMP-9, and ADAMDEC1 serum and tissue levels in patients with colorectal cancer [PDF]

Annals of Coloproctology
Purpose Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the most common malignancy of the gastrointestinal system globally. Identifying specific gene expression patterns indicative of early-stage CRC could enable early diagnosis and rapid treatment initiation.

The Relationship between Matrix Metalloproteinase Gene Polymorphisms and Tumor Type, Tumor Size, and Metastasis in Women with Breast Cancer in Central Iran

Middle East Journal of Cancer, 2018
Background: Matrix metalloproteinases-2 and -9 play important roles in the development of breast cancer by hydrolyzing the extracellular matrix. Since −1306C/T and −1562C/T polymorphisms are located at the promoter regions of the matrix metalloproteinase-

Matrix metalloproteinase-7 and matrix metalloproteinase-9 expression is upregulated in congenital lung malformations

The Turkish Journal of Pediatrics
Background. Congenital lung malformations (CLMs) refer to structural abnormalities of the lungs that occur during fetal development. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) constitute a group of zinc-dependent enzymes, with certain members of this family ...

Using Redescription Mining to Relate Clinical and Biological Characteristics of Cognitively Impaired and Alzheimer's Disease Patients [PDF]

, 2017
We used redescription mining to find interpretable rules revealing associations between those determinants that provide insights about the Alzheimer's disease (AD). We extended the CLUS-RM redescription mining algorithm to a constraint-based redescription mining (CBRM) setting, which enables several modes of targeted exploration of specific, user ...
