Contribution of Matrix Metalloproteinase-9 to Cerebral Edema and Functional Outcome following Experimental Subarachnoid Hemorrhage [PDF]
Background: Cerebral edema is an important risk factor for death and poor outcome following subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). However, underlying mechanisms are still poorly understood.

Engineering‐Modulated Molybdenum Enzymes Strategy for Tumor‐Specific Metabolic‐Immunotherapy
Biodegradable molybdenum sulfide nanoparticles were synthesized via a one‐pot strategy to increase molybdenum enzyme activity and thus effectively potentiate anti‐tumor immunity by integrating molybdenum‐based metalloimmunotherapy with hydrogen sulfide gas therapy.

Molecular and biochemical characterisation of peripheral blood MMP-2 upregulation and TIMP-2 downregulation in in-stent restenosis [PDF]
Background: The matrix metalloproteinase-2/tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2/TIMP-2) axis is an important regulator of extracellular matrix turnover and vascular remodelling.

Evaluation of the expression of matrix metalloproteinase 9 and neutrophil gelatinase associated lipocalin in serum, urine and tumoral tissues of female dogs suffering from mammary gland tumors [PDF]
In human medicine, it has been shown recently that the level of expression of matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) and neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) in serum, urine, and breast tissue were significantly increased in patients with breast

AI Designed Conformation Locking Peptides Target STING to Restore Diabetic Wound Healing
A generative AI pipeline identifies SCP‐1, a conformation‐locking peptide that stabilizes inactive STING. Incorporated into a dual‐responsive hydrogel for localized, MMP‐9‐triggered release, SCP‐1 suppresses inflammation, promotes reparative macrophage polarization, and accelerates diabetic wound healing.

Endothelial YAP Signaling Promotes Blood‐Spinal Cord Barrier Repair in Mice After Spinal Cord Injury
Endothelial YAP is required for blood‐spinal cord barrier repair after spinal cord injury. YAP‐dependent vascular repair is associated with ANGPT1/PI3K/AKT signaling in vivo and may involve endothelial‐pericyte paracrine interactions. By supporting vascular remodeling, tight junction restoration, restored pericyte coverage, and astrocyte‐vascular ...

Engineered N-TIMP2 Variant Specifically Targeting MMP-9 Exhibits Potent Anti-Glioblastoma Activity
Glioblastoma (GB) is the most aggressive form of brain cancer. However, despite intensive intervention, GB almost invariably recurs due to the highly invasive nature of its tumor cells, which infiltrate surrounding healthy brain tissue, underscoring the ...
