Matrix metalloproteinase 2 and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 2 expression is not regulated by norgestimate or norelgestromin

Gynecological Endocrinology, 2004
Steroid hormones regulate endometrial expression of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and their inhibitors. Synthetic progestins are widely used in oral contraceptives and for hormone replacement therapy. To assess whether the synthetic progestins norgestimate and its derivative norelgestromin (17-deacetylnorgestimate) modulate the expression of MMPs ...

Matrix metalloproteinase‐2 promoter and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase‐2 gene polymorphisms in non‐Hodgkin's lymphoma [PDF]

International Journal of Cancer, 2011
AbstractSingle nucleotide polymorphisms in the promoter regions of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinase (TIMP) genes are associated with an adverse outcome in some cancers. We examined three polymorphisms: −1306C/T and −735C/T in MMP‐2 and −418G/C in the TIMP‐2 gene, using chain reaction restriction fragment ...

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

, 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 ...

Identification of a novel 82 kDa proMMP-9 species associated with the surface of leukaemic cells [PDF]

, 2007
MMP-9 (matrix metalloproteinase 9) plays a critical role in tumour progression. Although the biochemical properties of the secreted form of proMMP-9 are well characterized, little is known about the function and activity of cell surface-associated proMMP-

Tumoral and stromal expression of MMP-2, MMP-9, MMP-14, TIMP-1, TIMP-2, and VEGF-A in cervical cancer patient survival: a competing risk analysis

BMC Cancer, 2020
Background Expression of matrix metalloproteases 2, 9 and 14 (MMP-2, MMP-9, MMP-14), tissue inhibitors of metalloprotease 1 and 2 (TIMP-1, TIMP-2) and vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF-A) is involved in tumor invasion and metastasis via ...

Neutrophil Adhesion and the Release of the Free Amino Acid Hydroxylysine

Cells, 2021
During infection or certain metabolic disorders, neutrophils can escape from blood vessels, invade and attach to other tissues. The invasion and adhesion of neutrophils is accompanied and maintained by their own secretion.

Correlation of Matrix Metalloproteinases and Tissue Inhibitors of Matrix Metalloproteinase Expression in Ileal Carcinoids, Lymph Nodes and Liver Metastasis with Prognosis and Survival [PDF]

, 2009
Purpose: Ileal carcinoids are gut epithelial tumors originating from serotonin-containing enterochromaffin (EC) cells. Therapeutic options for effectively inhibiting the growth and spread of metastatic carcinoids are still limited.

Overexpression of matrix metalloproteinase-2 and tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinase-2 in liver from patients with gastrointestinal adenocarcinoma and no detectable metastasis [PDF]

International Journal of Cancer, 1997
Degradation of basement membranes is a key step in tumoral invasion, mainly mediated by matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and their inhibitors (TIMPs). Since the liver is a main target for metastases from gastrointestinal adenocarcinoma, we have investigated MMP2 and TIMP2 expression by RT-PCR, in situ hybridization and zymography in the liver of ...
