Matrix metalloproteinases in COVID-19: underlying significance
Biotechnology & Biotechnological Equipment, 2023 The role of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) in pathogenesis and severity of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is under extensive exploration. MMPs are a family of extracellular proteases involved in a variety of physiological and pathological ...

Role of matrix Metalloproteinases in pituitary adenoma invasion
Chinese Neurosurgical Journal, 2018 Though pituitary adenomas are benign tumors in most cases, a considerable fraction of PAs behave in a malignant-like manner and invade to the adjacent structures in sellar region, especially the cavernous sinuses.

Plasma matrix metalloproteinases in neonates having surgery for congenital heart disease
Heart International, 2009 During cardiopulmonary-bypass matrix-metalloproteinases released may contribute to ventricular dysfunction. This study was to determine plasma matrix-metalloproteinases in neonates after cardiopulmonary-bypass and their relation to post-operative course.

Matrix metalloproteinases and their inhibitors
Фармакокинетика и Фармакодинамика, 2019 Metalloproteinase was discovered by Gross and Lapierre in 1962 for the first time. Since then, more than 20 enzymes of this family have been characterized, and their functions have been studied in detail.

Matrix metalloproteinases and epileptogenesis [PDF]
Molecular and Cellular Pediatrics, 2014 Matrix metalloproteinases are vital drivers of synaptic remodeling in health and disease. It is suggested that at early stages of epileptogenesis, inhibition of matrix metalloproteinases may help ameliorate cell death, aberrant network rewiring, and neuroinflammation and prevent development of epilepsy.

Annals of Agricultural and Environmental Medicine, 2016 Introduction The prevalence of endometriosis among reproductive age women is 7–17%; however, these figures reach 20–50% in patients suffering from infertility. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) activity is thought to be particularly essential in the early

Matrix metalloproteinases in skin [PDF]
Experimental Dermatology, 1997 Abstract Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a family of zinc‐dependent endopeptidases collectively capable of degrading essentially all extracellular matrix components. These enzymes can be produced by several different types of cells in skin such as fibroblasts, keratinocytes.

Matrix metalloproteinases in lung biology
Respiratory Research, 2000 Despite much information on their catalytic properties and gene regulation, we actually know very little of what matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) do in tissues.
