Tissue Inhibitor of Metalloproteinase-1: Actions beyond Matrix Metalloproteinase Inhibition [PDF]

Cardiology, 2015
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a family of zinc-dependent enzymes, which include 25 current members. MMPs degrade structural components of extracellular matrix and process bioactive molecules including cytokines, chemokines, and growth factors [1].

Matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2), MMP-9, tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinases (TIMP-1) and transforming growth factor-β2 (TGF-β2) expression in eutopic endometrium of women with peritoneal endometriosis

Annals of Agricultural and Environmental Medicine, 2016
Introduction The prevalence of endometriosis among reproductive age women is 7–17%; however, these figures reach 20–50% in patients suffering from infertility. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) activity is thought to be particularly essential in the early

Inhibition of Tissue Matrix Metalloproteinases Interferes with Mycobacterium tuberculosis-Induced Granuloma Formation and Reduces Bacterial Load in a Human Lung Tissue Model

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Granulomas are hallmarks of pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) and traditionally viewed as host-protective structures. However, recent evidence suggest that Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) uses its virulence factors to stimulate the formation of granuloma.
