Exogenously added GPI-anchored tissue inhibitor of matrix metal loproteinase-1 (TIMP-1) displays enhanced and novel biological activities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The family of tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) exhibits diverse physiological/biological functions including the inhibition of active matrix metalloproteinases, regulation of proMMP activation, cell growth, and the modulation of ...

Cell surface engineering of renal cell carcinoma with glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored TIMP-1 blocks TGF-beta 1 activation and reduces regulatory ID gene expression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 1 (TIMP-1) controls matrix metalloproteinase activity through 1:1 stoichiometric binding. Human TIMP-1 fused to a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchor (TIMP-1-GPI) shifts the activity of TIMP-1 from the ...

Role of TIMP-1 and TIMP-2 in the Progression of Cerebral Aneurysms [PDF]

open access: yesStroke, 2007
Background and Purpose— The degradation of extracellular matrix (ECM) is a hallmark of a cerebral aneurysm; however, little is known regarding the molecular mechanism leading to this change. Tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinase (TIMP) regulates the ECM degradation in vascular walls by ...

Meta-Analysis: Enhanced Liver Fibrosis (ELF) Test for Identifying Significant Fibrosis, Advanced Fibrosis, and Cirrhosis in Patients With Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease. [PDF]

open access: yesAliment Pharmacol Ther
A metaanalysis of 34 studies/37 cohorts using the Siemens Healthineers ELF test for biopsy‐staged F2, F3, or F4 MASLD‐associated fibrosis validates 9.0 (≥F2), 9.8 (≥F3), and 11.3 (F4) cut‐offs, and establishes 10.5 as a high‐specificity F4 cut‐off. This potentially holds implications for guideline revisions and aiding qualification for antifibrotic ...

Levels of Tissue Inhibitor of Metalloproteinases 1 in Plasma and Urine from Patients with Bladder Cancer

open access: yesThe International Journal of Biological Markers, 2006
Aim To assess the potential use of plasma and urine levels of tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases 1 (TIMP-1) in urothelial cancer. Methods TIMP-1 levels were determined in urine and plasma from healthy donors (n=26), patients with bacterial bladder ...

Promoter variants in tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-3 (TIMP-3) protect against susceptibility in pigeon breeders' disease. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
BACKGROUND: Tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) play a major role in extracellular matrix turnover in the lung. However, in chronic lung disorders such as idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and pigeon breeders' disease (PBD), TIMPs may ...

Tissue Inhibitor of Metalloproteinase-3 (TIMP-3) induces FAS dependent apoptosis in human vascular smooth muscle cells. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Over expression of Tissue Inhibitor of Metalloproteinases-3 (TIMP-3) in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) induces apoptosis and reduces neointima formation occurring after saphenous vein interposition grafting or coronary stenting.
