چکیده
PURPOSE To determine the effect of latanoprost on the expression of human matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) in the ciliary body. METHODS Total RNA was isolated, and qualitative RT-PCR was performed to detect the mRNA of MMPs and TIMPs in human ciliary body tissue and explant cultures of ciliary body smooth muscle (CBSM) cells. CBSM cell cultures were treated with vehicle control or latanoprost acid for 24 hours. Quantitative RT-PCR of cell cultures from five different donors was performed to determine relative changes in expression. GAPDH served as an endogenous control. RESULTS The mRNA of MMP-1, -2, -3, -11, -12, -14, -15, -16, -17, -19, and -24 as well as TIMP-1 to -4 were found in ciliary body tissue and CBSM cells. MMP-9 was present after latanoprost treatment. In control CBSM cells, the relative expression of MMP mRNA was MMP-2 and -14 > MMP-24 > MMP-1, -11, -15, -16, and -19 > MMP-3 and 17, > MMP-12. The relative expression of TIMP mRNA was TIMP-2 > TIMP-1 > TIMP-3 > TIMP-4. Latanoprost increased MMP-3 (in three of five cultures), MMP-17 (in four of five cultures), and TIMP-3 (in all five cultures); MMP-1, -2, -12, -14, -15, and -16 and TIMP-4 were downregulated. CONCLUSIONS The transcription of the genes for MMP-3 and -17 is increased by latanoprost treatment. MMP-9 is present after latanoprost treatment and may also mediate ECM changes. TIMP-3 is upregulated and may compensate for the increase in MMPs. These coordinated changes could be expected to mediate the latanoprost-induced alteration of ECM in the ciliary body.

Introduction: Metalloproteinases and their tissue inhibitors play an important role in the metastases formation. A multistage process of carcinogenesis requires the involvement of numerous enzymes and compounds that facilitate the expansion of tumor cells. The formation of metastases depends on both metalloproteinases and tissue inhibitors activation leading to the acti...
متن کاملP 88: Matrix Metalloproteinases in Neuroinflammation
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a family of neutral proteinases that are important in normal development, cellular differentiation or migration, angiogenesis, neurogenesis, wound repair, and a wide range of pathological processes such as oxidative stress and neuroinflammation. MMPs have been demonstrated to increase the permeability of the blood–brain barrier (BBB) by degrading the c...

PURPOSE Matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-mediated turnover of extracellular matrix (ECM) affects outflow resistance in the uveoscleral pathway. The balance of MMPs and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) governs the rate of ECM turnover in many tissues. The hypothesis was that a differential effect on MMPs and TIMPs in ciliary body smooth muscle (CBSM) cells would relate to the relati...

Cerebrovascular disease is one of the leading causes of death in the world, and about one-fourth of cerebrovascular deaths are due to ruptured cerebral aneurysms (CA). Hence it is important to find a way to reduce aneurysm formation and its subsequent morbidity and mortality. Proteolytic activity capable of lysing gelatin has been shown to be increased in aneurysm tissue and expressio...

Inhibition of matrix-metalloproteinases (MMPs) by tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) has been shown in vivo to decrease metastasis and tumor-associated angiogenesis. Our laboratory is interested in understanding the role of these proteins at the pericellular microenvironment of tumor and endothelial cells. Secretion of MMPs by tumor cells enables the migration, invasion and metasta...
