Metalloproteinases and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases in exudative pleural effusions [PDF]
The aim of this study was to assess the expression of several metalloproteinases (MMPs) and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) in exudative pleural effusions, and their relationship with inflammatory and fibrinolytic mediators in parapneumonic effusions.The study included 51 parapneumonic effusions (30 empyema or complicated parapneumonic,

Zymography of Metalloproteinases
AbstractZymography is an electrophoretic technique enabling visualization of the number and approximate size of peptidases in a sample on the basis of their hydrolysis of a protein substrate within the gel. The technique is particularly useful for analyzing the peptidase composition of complex biological samples because visualization depends directly ...

Evaluation of the Inhibition of other Metalloproteinases by Matrix Metalloproteinase Inhibitors [PDF]
Two series of compounds synthesized as specific matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) inhibitors have been evaluated for their inhibition of non-MMPs. In a series of substituted succinyl hydroxamic acids, some were found to be significant (IC50 < 1 microM) inhibitors of leucine (microsomal) aminopeptidase, neprilysin (3.4.24.11), and thermolysin.

MMP2 as an independent prognostic stratifier in oral cavity cancers
Background Around 25% of oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma (OCSCC) are not controlled by the standard of care, but there is currently no validated biomarker to identify those patients. Our objective was to determine a robust biomarker for severe OCSCC,
