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].

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

Metalloproteinases and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases in exudative pleural effusions [PDF]
European Respiratory Journal, 2005 The aim of this study was to assess the expression of several metalloproteinases (MMPs) and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) in exudative pleural effusions, and their relationship with inflammatory and fibrinolytic mediators in parapneumonic effusions.The study included 51 parapneumonic effusions (30 empyema or complicated parapneumonic,

Peroxynitrite inactivates human‐tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase‐4 [PDF]
FEBS Letters, 2008 Peroxynitrite, via post‐translational modifications to target proteins, contributes to cardiovascular injury and cancer. Since tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase‐4 (TIMP‐4), the activity of which is impaired in both pathological conditions, has several amino acid residues susceptible to peroxynitrite, we investigated its role as a potential target ...
