Biochemical markers assessing rate of reparative processes in patients with infiltrative pulmonary tuberculosis

Инфекция и иммунитет, 2023
Theeffectiveness of chemotherapy for infiltrative pulmonary tuberculosis (ITL) is determined by proper timing and adequacy of treatment. The speed of reparative changes in the pulmonary parenchyma is associated with the effectiveness of therapy ...

Designing TIMP (tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases) variants that are selective metalloproteinase inhibitors

Biochemical Society Symposia, 2003
The tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) are endogenous inhibitors of the matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), enzymes that play central roles in the degradation of extracellular matrix components. The balance between MMPs and TIMPs is important in the maintenance of tissues, and its disruption affects tissue homoeostasis.

Chronic tendon pathology: molecular basis and therapeutic implications [PDF]

, 2005
Tendons are frequently affected by chronic pain or rupture. Many causative factors have been implicated in the pathology, which until relatively recently was under-researched and poorly understood.

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

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

Molecular 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 ...

Tendinopathy—from basic science to treatment [PDF]

, 2008
Chronic tendon pathology (tendinopathy), although common, is difficult to treat. Tendons possess a highly organized fibrillar matrix, consisting of type I collagen and various 'minor' collagens, proteoglycans and glycoproteins.

COMP–PMEPA1 axis promotes epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition in breast cancer cells

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study reveals that cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) promotes epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) in breast cancer. We identify PMEPA1 (protein TMEPAI) as a novel COMP‐binding partner that mediates EMT via binding to the TSP domains of COMP, establishing the COMP–PMEPA1 axis as a key EMT driver in breast cancer.
