Matrix metalloproteinase 9 and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 1 in vesicoureteral reflux

Pediatric Nephrology, 2011
The aim of this study was to investigate whether urine levels of matrix metalloproteinase 9 (uMMP9) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 1 (uTIMP1) are novel biomarkers of vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) and to determine the optimal cut-off levels of these enzymes to predict VUR in children.

Matrix metalloproteinase-1 and matrix metalloproteinase-12 gene polymorphisms and the outcome of coronary artery disease

Coronary Artery Disease, 2011
In this study, we investigated the association between matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) G-1607GG, MMP-12 A-82G and MMP-12 A1082G genotypes and haplotypes and the prognosis of coronary artery disease (CAD).A total of 129 Tunisian patients with CAD were followed prospectively for a median of 2.5 years.

Circulating matrix metalloproteinase-2 but not matrix metalloproteinase-3, matrix metalloproteinase-9, or tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 predicts outcome in patients with congestive heart failure

American Heart Journal, 2005
Extracellular matrix remodeling is thought to play an important role in the progression of heart failure (HF). Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) are matrix-degrading enzymes that have been demonstrated to influence left ventricular properties and serve as targets of potential anti-remodeling agents ...

Differential Regulation of Stromelysin-1 (Matrix Metalloproteinase-3) and Matrilysin (Matrix Metalloproteinase-7) in Baboon Endometrium

Journal of the Society for Gynecologic Investigation, 2000
To investigate in vivo expression of matrix metalloproteinase enzymes (MMP), MMP-3 and MMP-7, by the baboon endometrium in relation to the process of tissue remodeling that accompanies menstruation in the primate.Endometrial tissues and uterine fluids obtained from reproductively intact cycling baboons, cycling baboons treated with an anti-progestin ...

Matrix metalloproteinase-1 and matrix metalloproteinase-12 gene polymorphisms and the risk of ischemic stroke in a Tunisian population

Journal of the Neurological Sciences, 2014
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) play an important role in early atherosclerosis, extracellular matrix remodeling, plaque rupture and myocardial infarction. MMP gene polymorphisms contribute to the risk of developing cardiovascular diseases. In this study, we investigated, for the first time, the association between MMP-1-16071G/2G, MMP-12 -82A/G and ...

Positive correlation between inhibitors of matrix metalloproteinase 1 and matrix metalloproteinases in malignant ovarian tumor tissues

Cancer Letters, 1997
To investigate the relation between matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMP) in malignant ovarian tumor, MMP and TIMP activities in conditioned media of 16 malignant ovarian tumor tissues and six normal ovaries were detected by zymography and reverse zymography, respectively and were quantitated with a ...

Matrix metalloproteinases in oral diseases (with accent on matrix metalloproteinase-1 in chronic periapical lesions)

2017
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are zinc and calcium dependent enzymes capable of degrading almost all extracellular matrix and basement membrane components. This group of proteolytic enzymes believed to be implicated in the breakdown of extracellular matrix in normal physiological processes, as well as, plays an important role in many destructive ...
