Matrix metalloproteinase polymorphisms and bladder cancer risk.
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) contribute to tumor microenvironment and are associated with bladder cancer. A study examining the association between MMP polymorphisms and bladder cancer risk has never been published. We analyzed the association of 11 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and one microsatellite polymorphism in MMP genes MMP-1, MMP-2, MMP-3, MMP-8, MMP-9, and MMP-12 with bladd...
متن کاملMissense polymorphisms in matrix metalloproteinase genes and skin cancer risk.
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) degrade various components of the extracellular matrix, and their overexpression has been implicated in tumor progression. Nonsynonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) lead to amino acid substitutions that can alter the function of the encoded protein. We evaluated the associations of six nonsynonymous SNPs in the MMP3, MMP8, and MMP9 genes with skin canc...
متن کاملMatrix metalloproteinase gene polymorphisms and oral cancer
Since oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is the most prevalent malignant cancer in the oral cavity, several researches have been performed to study the role of important enzymes in this disease. Among them, the matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are highlighted, due to the fact that they are proteinases responsible to degrade many extra-cellular matrix components, making possible the invasion of...
متن کاملMatrix metalloproteinase-1 and matrix metalloproteinase-3 gene promoter polymorphisms are associated with carotid artery stenosis.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a family of enzymes that are important in the resorption of extracellular matrix and are involved in atherogenesis. Recently, 2 common polymorphisms on MMP-1 (1G/2G) and MMP-3 (5A/6A) gene promoters have been described. The aim of this study was to investigate a possible association between MMP polymorphisms and increased risk of i...
متن کاملMatrix Metalloproteinase 1, 3, and 9 Polymorphisms and Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma Risk
BACKGROUND Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are multifunctional zinc-dependent proteinases that play a fundamental role in the pathogenesis of tumors. We have analyzed the association between 3 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs; MMP1 -1607 1G/2G, MMP3 -1612 5A/6A, and MMP9 -1562 C/T) and the risk of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). MATERIAL/METHODS We investigated these 3 SNPs i...
