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

open access: yesInternational 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]

open access: yes, 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]

open access: yes, 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-

Neutrophil Adhesion and the Release of the Free Amino Acid Hydroxylysine

open access: yesCells, 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.

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

open access: yesBMC 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 ...

Prognostic relevance of MMP-2 (72-kD collagenase IV) in gastric cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
The association of MMP-2 (matrix metalloproteinase 2, 72-kD collagenase IV) with invasive and metastatic capacity of tumor cells has implicated a potential role in the prognosis for cancer patients.

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

open access: yesInternational 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 ...

Cell surface engineering of renal cell carcinoma with glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored TIMP-1 blocks TGF-beta 1 activation and reduces regulatory ID gene expression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 1 (TIMP-1) controls matrix metalloproteinase activity through 1:1 stoichiometric binding. Human TIMP-1 fused to a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchor (TIMP-1-GPI) shifts the activity of TIMP-1 from the ...

ELISA study of matrix metalloproteinases 2, 7, 9 and their type 2 tissue inhibitor in the tumors of gastric cancer patients: clinical and pathologic correlations

open access: yesAlʹmanah Kliničeskoj Mediciny, 2018
Background: Over the last 10 years the incidence of gastric cancer has declined significantly. Nevertheless, it remains one of the most prevalent malignancies both in Russia and worldwide.
