The increased of MMP-9 and MMP-2 with the decreased of TIMP-1 on the uterosacral ligament after childbirth

open access: yesThe Pan African Medical Journal, 2018
INTRODUCTION: Pelvic floor dysfunction is one of the causes of morbidity that have very active role in the degradation of collagen and elastin through an intermediary changes in matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) and its regulation.

The regulation of trophoblast invasion and decidual reaction by matrix metalloproteinase‐2, metalloproteinase‐7, and metalloproteinase‐9 expressions in the rat endometrium

open access: yesReproductive Medicine and Biology, 2020
Purpose We aimed to evaluate how matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) regulate the trophoblast invasion and placentation. Methods Female rats were divided into the estrous cycle and early pregnancy day groups.

Matrix metalloproteinase-13 refines pathological staging of precancerous colorectal lesions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
An exact classification of precancerous stages of colorectal polyps might improve therapy and patients´ outcome. Here we investigate the association between grade of dysplasia and Matrix metalloproteinase-13 (MMP-13) expression in 137 biopsies from ...

Chondrocyte responses to neurovascular peptides, cytokines, and a 3D environment: focus on ADAMs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Chondrocyte exposure to inflammatory stimuli in several arthritic conditions, including osteoarthritis, results in the well-characterised induction of extracellular matrix (ECM) degrading proteinases, notably members of a disintegrin and ...

Exploring the Production of Extracellular Matrix by Astrocytes in Response to Mimetic Traumatic Brain Injury [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Following injury to the central nervous system, extracellular modulations are apparent at the site of injury, often resulting in a glial scar. Astrocytes are mechanosensitive cells, which can create a neuroinhibitory extracellular environment in response

The chemopreventive polyphenol Curcumin prevents hematogenous breast cancer metastases in immunodeficient mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Dissemination of metastatic cells probably occurs long before diagnosis of the primary tumor. Metastasis during early phases of carcinogenesis in high risk patients is therefore a potential prevention target.
