Sodium Fluoride Inhibits MMP-2 and MMP-9 [PDF]
The importance of fluoride (F) in preventing dental caries by favorably interfering in the demineralization-remineralization processes is well-established, but its ability to inhibit matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), which could also help to prevent dentin caries, has not been investigated.

Role of Matrix Metalloproteinases and Their Inhibitors in Locally Invasive Papillary Thyroid Cancer
Locally invasive papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) protrudes beyond the thyroid capsule and invades local structures. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and their inhibitors (TIMPs) are implicated in local invasion and metastasis in PTC.

Role of MMP-2 and CD147 in kidney fibrosis
Matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) and cluster of differentiation 147 (CD147) both play important roles in the development of kidney fibrosis, and CD147 can induce the production and activation of MMP-2.

A drug cocktail for protecting against ischemia-reperfusion injury
Ischemia followed by reperfusion (I/R) of cardiomyocytes causes release of a large amount of inducible nitric oxide (NO) synthase (iNOS) followed by an increase of asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA).
