Matrix metalloproteinases-9 and tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinases-1 in sarcoidosis patients [PDF]
Arhiv za farmaciju, 2017 Matrix metaloproteinases (MMPs) and their specific inhibitors - tissue inhibitors of matrix metalloproteinases (TIMPs) play an important role in pulmonary extracellular matrix destruction. Sarcoidosis is an inflammatory disease affecting multiple organs.

Matrix metalloproteinases-2,-3,-7,-9 and-10, but not MMP-11, are differentially expressed in normal, benign tumorigenic and malignant human keratinocyte cell lines [PDF]
, 2000 In order to investigate the correlations between constitutive proteinase expression and the degree of tumorigenicity of cancer cells we have studied a model system of three keratinocyte cell lines.

Ras, metastasis, and matrix metalloproteinase 9
, 2001 Publisher Summary This chapter describes the Ras, metastasis, and matrix metalloproteinase 9. The process of metastasis involves breakdown and penetration of intercellular matrix and basement membranes. The basement membrane in particular is a barrier to tumor invasion, intravasation, and extravasation.

In vivo and in vitro efficacy of crocin against Echinococcus multilocularis
Parasites & Vectors, 2021 Background Alveolar echinococcosis (AE) is a fatal zoonosis caused by the larvae of Echinococcus multilocularis. However, current chemotherapy treatment options are based on benzimidazoles [albendazole (ABZ) and mebendazole], which have limited efficacy.

Matrix Metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) Gene Polymorphism in Stroke Patients [PDF]
NeuroMolecular Medicine, 2015 Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), endopeptidases degrading extracellular matrix, play an important role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and vascular disease. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between the C(-1562)T functional polymorphism in the MMP-9 gene and risk of stroke.
