Inactivation of tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase‐1 by peroxynitrite [PDF]
Peroxynitrate (ONOO−) has recently been implicated in connective tissue destruction in vivo. We have studied the effect of ONOO− on the activity of tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase‐1 (TIMP‐1) in vitro. The inactivation of TIMP‐1 by ONOO− was dose dependent with 50 μM ONOO− reducing the inhibitory activity of TIMP‐1 towards gelatinase‐A by 50 ...

Levels of matrix metalloproteinase-1 and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinase-1 in gastric cancer
To evaluate the levels of preoperative serum matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1) in gastric cancer.One hundred gastric cancer patients who underwent gastrectomy were enrolled in this study. The serum concentrations of MMP-1 and TIMP-1 in these patients and in fifty healthy controls were determined ...

Hypertension (HTN) is a leading risk factor for cardiovascular (CV) disease. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and their tissue inhibitors (TIMPs) are thought to be actively involved in the remodeling of the CV extracellular matrix (ECM) during ...

Background: Matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) is a member of a family of enzymes that can degrade most extracellular matrix macromolecules. Extracellularly, MMPs are controlled by tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) and by mechanisms of pro ...

Prognostic Significance of Tissue Inhibitor of Metalloproteinase-1 in Breast Cancer [PDF]
Introduction. Despite advances in breast cancer systemic treatment, new prognostic and predictive factors are still needed. Tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1), a physiologic inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), can act in both pro-

Tissue Inhibitor of Metalloproteinase-1 Is Increased in Chagasic Cardiomyopathy. [PDF]
ABSTRACT. Chagas disease (CD) mainly conveys stroke risk through structural cardiac disease. However, stroke and cognitive impairment are seen in CD independently of cardiac disease severity. Chronic inflammation may be an explanation for this association, because inflammation plays an important role in the pathogenesis of acute ischemic stroke and ...

Multifunctionality of tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 in central nervous system diseases
Central nervous system (CNS) diseases are characterized by high morbidity, long disease courses, and irreversible neurological impairment, often resulting from damage to the neurovascular unit (NVU).

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 ...

Tissue Inhibitor of Metalloproteinase 1 Regulates Resistance to Infection [PDF]
ABSTRACT Tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 1 (TIMP-1)-deficient mice are resistant to Pseudomonas aeruginosa corneal infections. Corneas healed completely in TIMP-1-deficient mice, and infections were cleared faster in TIMP-1-deficient mice than in wild-type littermates.
