Matrix metalloproteinases and their inhibitors [PDF]
The progressive breakdown of connective tissues of the articular joints is a major feature of the arthritides and becomes an irreversible process leading to permanent loss of function and disability. Recent research has been directed at the analysis of the relative roles of different cell types and the different classes of proteinases that they produce

Cell-scale degradation of peritumoural extracellular matrix fibre network and its role within tissue-scale cancer invasion [PDF]
Local cancer invasion of tissue is a complex, multiscale process which plays an essential role in tumour progression. Occurring over many different temporal and spatial scales, the first stage of invasion is the secretion of matrix degrading enzymes (MDEs) by the cancer cells that consequently degrade the surrounding extracellular matrix (ECM).

Temporal and spatial expression of tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases 1 and 2 (TIMP-1 and -2) in the bovine corpus luteum [PDF]
The matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and their endogenous inhibitors, tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs), may mediate the dramatic structural and functional changes in the corpus luteum (CL) over the course of its life span.

Hydrogel‐Mediated Preservation of Live Tumor Explants for Drug Development in Peritoneal Metastases
This study presents a hyaluronan‐based hydrogel platform preserving the native tumor microenvironment (morphology, tissue composition, histology) of patient‐derived explants from peritoneal metastases, enabling clinically relevant drug screening. Hydrogel properties such as stiffness and degradation are crucial for longer‐term histoculture.

Biomimetic Dynamics of Nanoscale Groove and Ridge Topography for Stem Cell Regulation
Dynamic nanoscale groove‐ridge structures are engineered by flexibly conjugating RGD‐magnetic nanoparticles to nanogroove templates with variable groove widths at the molecular scale. Magnetic control enables cyclic switching between nanoscale groove and ridge states that modulates ligand accessibility of cellular integrins.
