Plasma matrix metalloproteinase-9 and tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinase-1 as prognostic biomarkers in critically ill patients

Open Medicine, 2020
Matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9) plays an important role in inflammatory and pathological processes by enabling the inflow of leukocytes to the site of infection or tissue damage.

Osteopontin, a Novel Substrate for Matrix Metalloproteinase-3 (Stromelysin-1) and Matrix Metalloproteinase-7 (Matrilysin) [PDF]

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2001
Osteopontin (OPN) is a secreted phosphoprotein shown to function in wound healing, inflammation, and tumor progression. Expression of OPN is often co-localized with members of the matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) family. We report that OPN is a novel substrate for two MMPs, MMP-3 (stromelysin-1) and MMP-7 (matrilysin).

A Unique Substrate Binding Mode Discriminates Membrane Type-1 Matrix Metalloproteinase from Other Matrix Metalloproteinases [PDF]

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2002
In our study, we characterized the substrate recognition properties of membrane type-1 matrix metalloproteinase (MT1-MMP; also known as MMP-14), a key enzyme in tumor cell invasion and metastasis. A panel of optimal peptide substrates for MT1-MMP was identified using substrate phage display.

Enhancement of fibrinogen-triggered pro-coagulant activation of monocytes in vitro by matrix metalloproteinase-9 [PDF]

, 2010
Background Interaction of fibrinogen with specific leukocyte integrins of monocytes may link coagulation and inflammation, however, the precise mechanism of fibrinogen leading to the pro-inflammatory and pro-coagulatory response on monocytes is yet ...
