Astrocytic Tissue Inhibitor of Metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1) Promotes Oligodendrocyte Differentiation and Enhances CNS Myelination

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience, 2011
Tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1) is an extracellular protein and endogenous regulator of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) secreted by astrocytes in response to CNS myelin injury. We have previously reported that adult TIMP-1 knock-out (KO)

Increased expression of matrix metalloproteinase-9 in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Aim: The molecular mechanism of epileptogenesis in temporal lobe epilepsy is still unclear. Experimental studies have suggested that matrix metalloproteinases have important roles in this process, but human studies are limited.

Plasma matrix metalloproteinase-1 and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-1 as biomarkers of ulcerative colitis activity

open access: yesWorld Journal of Gastroenterology, 2003
Overexpression of mucosal metalloproteinases (MMP) has been demonstrated recently in inflammatory bowel disease. Their activity can be counterbalanced by the tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases (TIMP). The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of ulcerative colitis (UC) on MMP-1 and TIMP-1 plasma concentrations, as two possible biomarkers of ...

ADAMTS proteinases: a multi-domain, multi-functional family with roles in extracellular matrix turnover and arthritis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Members of the ADAMTS (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs) family are known to influence development, angiogenesis, coagulation and progression of arthritis.

Adiponectin Reduces Hepatic Stellate Cell Migration by Promoting Tissue Inhibitor of Metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1) Secretion*

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2015
Background: Adiponectin has been shown to limit liver fibrosis, but the molecular mechanisms remain unknown. Results: In vitro and in vivo adiponectin increases TIMP-1 secretion, which binds to the CD63/β1-integrin complex to decrease FAK activity and ...

Kinetics of urinary cell cycle arrest markers for acute kidney injury following exposure to potential renal insults [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Objectives: Urinary tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-2 and insulin-like growth factor binding protein 7 predict the development of acute kidney injury following renal insults of varied aetiology.

Tissue Inhibitor of Metalloproteinases-1 Regulation by Aldosterone [PDF]

open access: yesHypertension, 2016
See related article, pp 1309–1320 Primary aldosteronism (PA), first characterized by Conn in 1955,1 results in hypertension secondary to the excessive production of aldosterone by the adrenal cortex—in many cases because of the presence of a benign aldosterone-producing adenoma.

In vitro models of cancer‐associated fibroblast heterogeneity uncover subtype‐specific effects of CRISPR perturbations

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Development of therapies targeting cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) necessitates preclinical model systems that faithfully represent CAF–tumor biology. We established an in vitro coculture system of patient‐derived pancreatic CAFs and tumor cell lines and demonstrated its recapitulation of primary CAF–tumor biology with single‐cell transcriptomics ...

The tissue-type plasminogen activator-plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 complex promotes neurovascular injury in brain trauma: evidence from mice and humans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The neurovascular unit provides a dynamic interface between the circulation and central nervous system. Disruption of neurovascular integrity occurs in numerous brain pathologies including neurotrauma and ischaemic stroke. Tissue plasminogen activator is

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...
