Functional polymorphisms in the promoters of MMP-1, MMP-2, MMP-3, MMP-9, MMP-12 and MMP-13 are not associated with hepatocellular carcinoma risk [PDF]

open access: yesGut, 2007
The matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) play an important role in several steps of cancer development by regulating cancer-cell growth, differentiation, apoptosis, invasion, metastasis, angiogenesis and immune surveillance.1 Several polymorphisms in the promoters of a number of MMP genes, which are thought to affect the respective MMP production in an ...

Luteolin alleviates renal ischemia-reperfusion injury in streptozotocin induced diabetic rats by inhibiting metalloenzymes expression

open access: yesCurrent Issues in Pharmacy and Medical Sciences, 2023
Diabetes patients are more prone to acute kidney injury (AKI). Endopeptidases known as matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) cause extracellular matrix destruction and are responsible for ischemic organ damage.

Distinct emphysema subtypes defined by quantitative CT analysis are associated with specific pulmonary matrix metalloproteinases. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
BACKGROUND: Emphysema is characterised by distinct pathological sub-types, but little is known about the divergent underlying aetiology. Matrix-metalloproteinases (MMPs) are proteolytic enzymes that can degrade the extracellular matrix and have been ...
