Estrogen treatment decreases matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9 in autoimmune demyelinating disease through estrogen receptor alpha (ERalpha). [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) have a crucial function in migration of inflammatory cells into the central nervous system (CNS). Levels of MMP-9 are elevated in multiple sclerosis (MS) and predict the occurrence of new active lesions on magnetic ...

Interaction between tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-2 and progelatinase A: immunoreactivity analyses [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 1996
By immunoreactivity analysis using monoclonal antibodies, we showed that the C-terminal domain [R415–631; R is residue] of progelatinase A [pro-matrix metalloproteinase-2 (proMMP-2); EC 3.4.24.24] affected the immunoreactivity of a one-step sandwich enzyme immunoassay (sandwich EIA) for tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-2 (TIMP-2) in exactly the ...

Distinct emphysema subtypes defined by quantitative CT analysis are associated with specific pulmonary matrix metalloproteinases. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
BACKGROUND: Emphysema is characterised by distinct pathological sub-types, but little is known about the divergent underlying aetiology. Matrix-metalloproteinases (MMPs) are proteolytic enzymes that can degrade the extracellular matrix and have been ...
