Serum Levels of Matrix Metalloproteinases-2 and -9 and Their Tissue Inhibitors in Inflammatory Neuromuscular Disorders [PDF]
We monitored serum levels of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and their tissue inhibitors (TIMPs) before and during intravenously applied immunoglobulin (IVIG) therapy in 33 patients with chronic immune-mediated neuropathies and myopathies and 15 controls. Baseline MMP-2 and TIMP-2 serum levels were lower and MMP-9 and TIMP-1 serum levels higher in all

Modulation of plasma matrix metalloproteinase 9 and its inhibitors by vitamin D. [PDF]
PhDMatrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and their tissue inhibitors (TIMPs) are upregulated in a variety of diseases. Hypothesis: As TIMP-1 levels are elevated in liver fibrosis, might a similar process occur in essential hypertension driven left ...

Prognostic Values of Matrix Metalloproteinase-2 and Tissue Inhibitor of Metalloproteinase-2 Expression in Bladder Cancer [PDF]
Matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2), which degrades the extracellular matrix or the basement membrane, has an essential role in tumor invasion and metastasis. To evaluate the roles of MMP-2, its inhibitor (tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-2 [TIMP-2]), and its activator (membrane-type matrix metalloproteinase-1 [MT1-MMP]) in tumor invasion or as a ...
