Proteolysis at the extracellular matrix interface: Molecular architects and regulators in health and disease

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a dynamic scaffold that orchestrates tissue architecture and cellular communication. A critical but underexplored interplay between proteases and cluster of differentiation molecules (CD) governs ECM turnover and directs cell fate.

ADAM17 and its proteolytic targets in disease pathogenesis

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
ADAM17 as a multifunctional sheddase with contrasting roles across inflammatory, metabolic, cardiovascular, and neoplastic diseases. Through regulated activation by iRhom, iTAP/FRMD8, and tetraspanins, ADAM17 cleaves diverse membrane ligands and receptors, thereby promoting inflammation, fibrosis, obesity, insulin resistance, and tumor progression ...

Membrane‐type I metalloproteinase (MT1‐MMP): A key modifier of extracellular matrix microenvironment

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
MT1‐MMP: A cellular microenvironment modifier. MT1‐MMP is a major cellular microenvironment modifier, maintaining collagen homeostasis by degrading excess collagen (A), creating a migration path in motile cells such as cancer cells (B), modulating local microenvironmental signaling by cleaving transmembrane receptors (C), and destroying tissue ...

Analysis of TIMP Expression and Activity

, 2007
This chapter provides practical information on the assay of tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase (TIMP) activity and background information enabling meaningful interpretation of the data. Protocols are given for assessing the presence of TIMPs in biological samples by immunoblotting and by virtue of their ability to inhibit matrix metalloproteinase ...

Proteolytic remodelling of the extracellular matrix by pericytes

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Pericytes are specialised perivascular cells intimately connected with endothelial cells and essential for the maintenance of vascular beds. They contribute to the formation and remodelling of the extracellular matrix by actively secreting proteases and protease inhibitors.

Evidence‐Based Clinical Practice Guidelines for Metabolic Dysfunction–Associated Steatotic Liver Disease (MASLD) 2026

Hepatology Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) has emerged as the most prevalent chronic liver disease worldwide, with an increasing number of patients progressing to cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Early identification of individuals at high risk for advanced fibrosis is essential for preventing liver‐related ...

TIMP-1 associates with myelin membrane and preserves myelin in injured peripheral nerve

Neurobiology of Disease
Myelin enables rapid impulse propagation in axons across long distances. Following peripheral nerve injury, Schwann cells provide trophic, metabolic, and immune support to damaged neurons.

Probiotics Augment the Effect of Non‐Surgical Periodontal Treatment—A Randomised, Double‐Blinded, Placebo‐Controlled Trial

Journal of Clinical Periodontology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim To determine the effect of probiotic lozenges containing Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus PB01, Latilactobacillus curvatus EB10 and xylitol after non‐surgical periodontal treatment (NSPT) on changes in microbial composition. The secondary aims were to assess the clinical and immunological impact of probiotic consumption.

Chronic thermal stress affects growth, liver morphology and molecular responses but allows recovery at optimal temperature in juvenile zebrafish (Danio rerio)

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Climate‐driven aquatic heatwaves pose an increasing threat to fish populations by inducing prolonged thermal stress. However, the resilience of teleosts to chronic heat exposure and their capacity for recovery remains poorly understood. This study investigated the effects of chronic high‐temperature exposure on juvenile zebrafish (Danio rerio).
