Changes in the extracellular matrix under the influence of anticoagulant therapy in patients with Q-myocardial infarction after thrombolysis

open access: yesZaporožskij Medicinskij Žurnal, 2014
Aim. Matrix metalloproteinases play a key role in adaptive postinfarction remodeling of the heart. In order to study the influence of anticoagulation therapy on the state of matrix metalloproteinases and their inhibitors, the incidence of post-infarction

MMP2 and MMP9 contribute to lung ischemia–reperfusion injury via promoting pyroptosis in mice

open access: yesBMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2022
Background Lung ischemia–reperfusion injury (LIRI) is a cause of poor prognosis in several lung diseases and after lung transplantation. In LIRI, matrix metalloproteinases and pyroptosis indicators change in parallel, both of them involvement of ...

Matrix metalloproteinases at a glance [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cell Science, 2004
The matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are one of the major families of proteinases that play key roles in the responses of cells to their microenvironment. Most notably the MMPs have the combined capacity to degrade all the components of the extracellular matrix.

Matrix metalloproteinases in emphysema [PDF]

open access: yesMatrix Biology, 2018
Several studies have implicated a causative role for specific matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) in the development and progression of cigarette smoke-induced chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and its severe sequela, emphysema. However, the precise function of any given MMP in emphysema remains an unanswered question.
