Expression of Matrix Metalloproteinase-2 and -9 in Meningioma
Background: Meningioma is one of the most common tumors of the central nervous system. It was shown that meningioma had up-regulated expression of Matrix Metalloproteinases (MMPs) that involved in cell growth, angiogenesis and metastasis. Objectives: The aim of the study was the assessment of serum MMP-2 and -9 levels in patients with different grades of meningioma. Materials & Me...
متن کاملMechanisms of allergic inflammation in bronchial asthma
36 A very complex mechanisms depending on inflammatory mediators are the background of allergic inflammation in airways. This is manifested by several phenomena like transudate, mucosal edema, increased secretion of mucus, changed viscosity of discharge, impairment of cilliary transportation and contraction of smooth muscles of bronchi. The above symptoms and shedding of respiratory epithelium ...

متن کاملMatrix metalloproteinase-9-mediated tissue injury overrides the protective effect of matrix metalloproteinase-2 during colitis.
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) play an important role in pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Two known gelatinases, MMP-2 and MMP-9, are upregulated during IBD. Epithelial-derived MMP-9 is an important mediator of tissue injury in colitis, whereas MMP-2 protects against tissue damage and maintains gut barrier function. It has been suggested that developing strategies to block MMP...
متن کاملAssociation of matrix metalloproteinase 8 genetic polymorphisms with bronchial asthma in a Japanese population
Asthma has a strong genetic component. The final disease phenotype results from complex interactions between environment and multiple genes of small-to-modest effects. We investigated whether the polymorphism in genes encoding inflammatory mediators and cytokines is important for solving the onset and progression of asthma. We investigated whether 31 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in ge...
