Low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein (LRP-1) is an endocytic receptor for diverse proteins, including matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9), and a cell-signaling receptor. In the peripheral nervous system (PNS), LRP-1 is robustly expressed by Schwann cells only after injury. Herein, we demonstrate that MMP-9 activates extracellular-signal-regulated kinase (ERK1/2) and Akt in Schwann ce...
OBJECTIVE Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is characterized by chronic inflammation in the airway and lung. A protease-antiprotease imbalance has been suggested as a possible pathogenic mechanism for COPD. We evaluated the relationship between matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) levels and COPD severity. METHODS Plasma levels of MMP-1, MMP-8, MMP-9, and MMP-12 were measured in 57 COPD ...
Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), which is closely associated with the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), is a highly metastatic malignant tumor. An important activity in tumor invasion and metastasis is that of the 92-kDa type IV collagenase or gelatinase, matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9), which mediates the degradation of the basement membrane and extracellular matrix. The expression of MMP-9 has been...
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 ...
Estradiol (E) primes human endometrial stromal cells (HESCs) for the decidualizing effects of progesterone in vivo and in vitro. Matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) expression was evaluated in confluent HESCs incubated in control medium, and in medium supplemented with either E, or the synthetic progestin medroxyprogesterone acetate (P), or E + P. Measurements with a specific ELISA indicated that ba...
BACKGROUND Berberine (BBR) is one of the major alkaloids, and it has been reported to have a variety of pharmacologic effects, including inhibition of cell cycle progression. Here, we investigated the effect of BBR on the MMP-1 and MMP-9 expressions, which are predictors of metastasis and invasion in breast cancer cells. METHODS MMP-1 and MMP-9 mRNA expressions were analyzed by real-time PCR....
The matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) family has been implicated in the process of a variety of diseases such as arthritis, atherosclerosis, and tumor cell metastasis. To study the mechanisms of MMP action on collagenous substrates, we have constructed homotrimeric triple-helical peptide (THP) models of the collagenase cleavage sites in types I and II collagen. The THPs incorporate either the alph...
BACKGROUND Degradation of basement membrane and extracellular matrix by matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) is believed to be an essential step in the complicated process of hematogenous metastasis. MMP-1 is a member of collagenases, a family of MMPs that degrades collagens type I, II, and III, main components of the interstitial stroma. The purpose of this study was to investigate the expression ...
INTRODUCTION Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) play a role in infectious diseases through extracellular matrix (ECM) degradation, which favors the migration of immune cells from the bloodstream to sites of inflammation. Although higher levels of MMP-9 and tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinases-1 (TIMP-1) have been found in small series of patients with sepsis, MMP-10 levels have not been ...
Expression of increased levels of matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) has been implicated in tumor progression and angiogenesis. Much of our knowledge of the controls of MMP-9 levels has focused on transcription. Here we show that MMP-9 levels are also controlled by translational efficiency in murine prostate carcinoma cells. The murine prostate carcinoma cells 148-1,LMD and 148-1,PA were derive...
