Expression of MMP‐2, MMP‐9 and MMP‐11 in dermatofibroma and dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans
The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, 2012 AbstractDermatofibroma (DF) and dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) are the spindle cell mesenchymal neoplasms of the dermis and subcutis. Their histogenesis still remains uncertain and controversial. Traditionally, CD34 and factor XIIIa or other markers have been widely used to distinguish these two diseases.

Journal of Animal Reproduction and Biotechnology, 2018 To determine the differences in the in-vitro ovum maturation process of bovine, we compared the expression of MMPs in these oocytes and cumulus cell throughout oocytes maturated. In an attempt to investigate the effect of MMP activation and inhibitors in

High MMP-1, MMP-2, and MMP-9 protein levels in osteoarthritis
Genetics and Molecular Research, 2015 Our study examined the relationship between the expression of matrix metalloproteinases (MMP)-1, MMP-2, and MMP-9 proteins and the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis (OA). We employed rigorous inclusion and exclusion criteria in computer-based bibliographic databases to extract published studies relevant to this investigation.

Journal of Animal Reproduction and Biotechnology, 2019 We observed MMPs expression in all sperm groups, with pro-MMP showing lower expression than active MMPs. According to the results from each freezing extender, the sperm membrane integrity (HOST: Hypoosmotic Swelling Test) analysis in TCGGD (Tris 250 mM ...
