Matrix metalloproteinase system in blood serum in patients with squamous cell head and neck carcinomas

Бюллетень сибирской медицины, 2011
The concentrations of matrix metalloproteinases (MMP-2, -3, -9) and their tissue inhibitors (TIMP-1, -2) were studied in blood serum of 193 patients with squamous cell head and neck carcinoma (SCHNC) and in 38 healthy donors using immunoenzymatic assay ...

Matrix metalloproteinase-9 activity and a downregulated Hedgehog pathway impair blood-brain barrier function in an in vitro model of CNS tuberculosis [PDF]

, 2017
Central nervous system tuberculosis (CNS TB) has a high mortality and morbidity associated with severe inflammation. The blood-brain barrier (BBB) protects the brain from inflammation but the mechanisms causing BBB damage in CNS TB are uncharacterized ...

Is the expression of matrix metalloproteinases (MMP-2, -9) and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMP-1, -2, and -3) associated with angiogenesis and clinicopathological features for breast cancer?

Journal of Health Sciences, 2017
Introduction: Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) are involved in the progression of several tumors, including breast cancer. Our aim was to investigate the association of immunohistochemical expression of

ADAMTS -1 and -4 are up-regulated following transient middle cerebral artery occlusion in the rat and their expression is modulated by TNF in cultured astrocytes [PDF]

, 2006
ADAMTS (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs) enzymes are a recently described group of metalloproteinases. The substrates degraded by ADAMTS-1, -4 and -5 suggests that they play a role in turnover of extracellular matrix in the

Role of Matrix Metalloproteinases in Angiogenesis and Cancer

Frontiers in Oncology, 2019
During angiogenesis, new vessels emerge from existing endothelial lined vessels to promote the degradation of the vascular basement membrane and remodel the extracellular matrix (ECM), followed by endothelial cell migration, and proliferation and the new
