Cell surface engineering of renal cell carcinoma with glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored TIMP-1 blocks TGF-beta 1 activation and reduces regulatory ID gene expression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 1 (TIMP-1) controls matrix metalloproteinase activity through 1:1 stoichiometric binding. Human TIMP-1 fused to a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchor (TIMP-1-GPI) shifts the activity of TIMP-1 from the ...

Cadherin composition and multicellular aggregate invasion in organotypic models of epithelial ovarian cancer intraperitoneal metastasis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
During epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) progression, intraperitoneally disseminating tumor cells and multicellular aggregates (MCAs) present in ascites fluid adhere to the peritoneum and induce retraction of the peritoneal mesothelial monolayer prior to ...

Serum MMP-8 and TIMP-1 as prognostic biomarkers in gastric cancer

open access: yesTumor Biology, 2018
Despite gastric cancer being rare nowadays in Western countries, it remains one of the leading causes of cancer death worldwide. The course of the disease varies, so the individual gastric cancer patient’s prognosis is difficult to determine.

Cardiotrophin-1 induces matrix metalloproteinase-1 in human aortic endothelial cells. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Rupture of an atherosclerotic plaque is a key event in the development of cardiovascular disorders, in which matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) plays a crucial role by degradation of extracellular matrix resulting in plaque instability.

Differential expression of ADAMTS -1, -4, -5 and TIMP -3 in rat spinal cord at different stages of acute experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) is an animal model of inflammatory demyelination, a pathological event common to multiple sclerosis (MS). During CNS inflammation there are alterations in the extracellular matrix (ECM).

Influence of phase I periodontal therapy on levels of matrix metalloproteinase 1 and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 1

open access: yesSaudi Dental Journal, 2014
Background: Matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) is a member of a family of enzymes that can degrade most extracellular matrix macromolecules. Extracellularly, MMPs are controlled by tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) and by mechanisms of pro ...

Tight junction defects are seen in the buccal mucosa of patients receiving standard dose chemotherapy for cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Oral mucositis is one of the most common and debilitating side effects of chemotherapy treatment. Patients are often unable to eat and drink, which can lead to poor clinical outcomes and extensive resource utilisation.

Interdomain Flexibility in Full-length Matrix Metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2009
The presence of extensive reciprocal conformational freedom between the catalytic and the hemopexin-like domains of full-length matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) is demonstrated by NMR and small angle x-ray scattering experiments. This finding is discussed in relation to the essentiality of the hemopexin-like domain for the collagenolytic activity of ...

Prognostic value of determination of matrix metalloproteinase-1 and tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinase-1 in follicular fluid in patients in vitro fertilization programs [PDF]

open access: yesГинекология, 2021
Aim. To determine the prognostic significance of matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) and tissue metalloproteinase-1 inhibitor (TIMP-1) in the follicular fluid (FF) in patients with infertility to improve the effectiveness of in vitro fertilization (IVF ...
