Investigation of MMP-2 and MMP-9 activities in canine sera with dilated cardiomyopathy
Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is accompanied by myocytes and connective tissue changes. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) play important roles in cardiac remodeling. It seems that the gelatinases (MMP-2 and MMP-9) are effective enzymes in cardiomyopathy. Dilated cardiomyopathy was confirmed in 22 dogs (patient group) including 11 female and 11 male by clinical examination, auscultation, thoracic ...
متن کاملHematopoietic Stem Cell Mobilization and Homing after Transplantation: The Role of MMP-2, MMP-9, and MT1-MMP
Hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs) are used in clinical transplantation to restore hematopoietic function. Here we review the role of the soluble matrix metalloproteinases MMP-2 and MMP-9, and membrane type (MT)1-MMP in modulating processes critical to successful transplantation of HSPC, such as mobilization and homing. Growth factors and cytokines which are employed as mobilizing agen...
متن کاملVascular endothelial growth factor expression correlates with matrix metalloproteinases MT1-MMP, MMP-2 and MMP-9 in human glioblastomas.
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is the major endothelial mitogen in central nervous system neoplasms and it is expressed in 64-95% of glioblastomas (GBMs). Tumour cells are the main source of VEGF in GBMs whereas VEGF receptors (VEGFR-1, its soluble form sVEGFR-1, VEGFR-2 and neuropilin-1) are expressed predominantly by endothelial cells. Infiltrating tumour cells and newly-formed cap...
متن کاملRegulation of MT1-MMP and MMP-2 by the serpin PEDF: a promising new target for metastatic cancer.
The balance of endogenous angiogenic factors in the body is responsible for the homeostatic control of angiogenesis during normal physiological circumstances, with the disruption of this fragile balance leading to pathologic angiogenic events such as those involved in cancer progression. This review focuses regulation of the pro-angiogenic factors membrane type-1 matrix metalloproteinase (MT1-M...
متن کاملMMP-2 and MMP-9 synergize in promoting choroidal neovascularization.
Matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP-2) and MMP-9 are increased in human choroidal neovascularization (CNV) occurring during the exudative most aggressive form of age-related macular degeneration (AMD), but their precise role and potential interactions remain unclear. To address the question of MMP-2 and MMP-9 functions, mice deficient in the expression of MMP-2 (MMP-2 KO), MMP-9 (MMP-9 KO), and bot...
