Combinatorial targeting of G‐protein‐coupled bile acid receptor 1 and cysteinyl leukotriene receptor 1 reveals a mechanistic role for bile acids and leukotrienes in drug‐induced liver injury

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
CHIN117 is a dual cysteinyl leukotriene receptor 1 (CYSLTR1) antagonist and G‐protein‐coupled bile acid receptor 1 (GPBAR1) agonist. In the liver, GPBAR1 and CYSLTR1 are coexpressed by liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSECs), HSCs, circulating monocytes/macrophages, and liver resident macrophages (Kupffer cells).

Detection of Matrix Metalloproteinases Patterns in Bovine Luteum cell during Pregnancy

open access: yesJournal of Animal Reproduction and Biotechnology, 2018
The major focus of this study is to analyze the expression of bovine MMPs and to monitor their activity during the estrus cycle and pregnancy. During pregnancy, MMP-2 expression was detectable around 30 days but became insignificant by 60 days, then ...

Comprehensive analysis of expression, prognosis and immune infiltration for TIMPs in glioblastoma

open access: yesBMC Neurology, 2021
Background Tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinase (TIMP) family proteins are peptidases involved in extracellular matrix (ECM) degradation. Various diseases are related to TIMPs, and the primary reason is that TIMPs can indirectly regulate remodelling of

Expression of Matrix Metalloproteinases (MMPs) and Their Tissue Inhibitors (TIMPs) in Frozen Sperm of Rabbit

open access: yesJournal 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 ...

Circulating matrix metalloproteinases and tissue metalloproteinase inhibitors in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis in the multicenter IPF-PRO Registry cohort

open access: yesBMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2020
Background Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and tissue inhibitors of MMPs (TIMPs) play important roles in the turnover of extracellular matrix and in the pathogenesis of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF).

Altered circulating levels of matrix metalloproteinases and inhibitors associated with elevated type 2 cytokines in lymphatic filarial disease. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2012
Infection with Wuchereria bancrofti can cause severe disease characterized by subcutaneous fibrosis and extracellular matrix remodeling. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a family of enzymes governing extracellular remodeling by regulating cellular ...

The Expression of Matrix Metalloproteinases Activated Differently on In-Vitro Maturation of oocytes Cytoplasm and Cumulus Cells in Bovine

open access: yesJournal 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

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 ...

The Biology and Function of Tissue Inhibitor of Metalloproteinase 2 in the Lungs

open access: yesPulmonary Medicine, 2022
Tissue inhibitors of matrix metalloproteinases (TIMP) are a family of four endogenous proteins that primarily function to inhibit the activities of proteases such as the matrix metalloproteinases (MMP).
