Expression of TIMP-1 and TIMP-2 in rats with hepatic fibrosis

World Journal of Gastroenterology, 2004
To investigate the location and expression of TIMP-1 and TIMP-2 in the liver of normal and experimental hepatic fibrosis in rats.The rat models of experimental immunity hepatic fibrosis (n=20) were prepared by the means of immunologic attacking with human serum albumin (HSA), and normal rats (n=10) served as control group. Both immunohistochemistry and

The Antidiabetic Potential of Alpha‐Mangostin: A Review of Preclinical and Clinical Evidence

AgriFood: Journal of Agricultural Products for Food, EarlyView.
Alpha‐mangostin is a compound from the pericarp of Garcinia mangostana. The antidiabetic effects of alpha‐mangostin include enhancing insulin secretion, improving glucose uptake through GLUT receptor upregulation, reducing oxidative stress and inflammation, promoting wound healing, reducing HbA1C, reducing HOMA‐IR index, and decreased mRNA expressions ...

Plasma Proteome Reflects Tissue Damage and Clinical Manifestations in Patients With Inflammatory Myopathies

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Tissue‐specific biomarkers that are reliable and associated with clinical manifestations of idiopathic inflammatory myopathy (IIM) are lacking. The blood circulation in individuals serves as a central conduit, allowing communication between tissues and facilitating clearance and recycling of tissue‐derived proteins.

Pharmacokinetics and Biodistribution of Human Serum Albumin-TIMP-2 Fusion Protein Using Near-Infrared Optical Imaging

Journal of Pharmacy & Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2011
Purpose TIMP-2 has been studied as an attractive cancer therapeutic candidate, and a TIMP-2 fusion protein (HSA/TIMP-2) displayed effective anticancer activity, despite a lack of information about its pharmacokinetics (PK) and biodistribution.

Drosophila male genitalia rotation depends on permissive remodeling of the posterior abdomen

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background One of the most characteristic morphogenetic processes in Drosophila is the 360° rotation of the male pupal genital disc. This movement is driven by the myosin Myo1D, whose expression in the genital disc is controlled by the Hox gene Abdominal‐B (Abd‐B).

Purification of MMPs and TIMPs

, 2003
A number of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and their endogenous inhibitors called tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) from natural sources have been identified. This chapter describes the purification methods of MMPs-1, -2, -3, -7, -8, -9, -10, -12, and -13 and TIMPs-1 and -2.

Chemokine-induced secretion of gelatinase B in primary human monocytes [PDF]

, 2001
Chemokines help control normal leukocyte trafficking as well as their infiltration into tissues during acute and chronic inflammation. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) help support the extravasation and infiltration of leukocytes through limited ...
