background: one of the most major obstacles of ovarian tissue vitrification is suboptimal developmental competence of follicles. matrix metalloproteinases 2 (mmp-2) and 9 (mmp-9) and their tissue inhibitors timp-1 and timp-2 are involved in the remodeling of the extracellular matrix in the ovaries. objective: this study aimed to evaluate the expression of mmp-2, mmp-9, timp-1, and timp-2 genes ...

conclusions: lymphatic metastasis in patients with oral and maxillofacial scc is closely related to the positive expression of vegf, mmp-9 and timp-2. mmp-9 and timp-2 can affect the progression of cancer, which is valuable for studies on oral and maxillofacial scc genes. objectives: to explore the association between expression of vegf, mmp-9 and timp-2 in oral and maxillofacial scc and clinic...

abstract introduction: matrix metalloproteinase 2 is one of the inflammatory mediators that is involved in nociceptive processing and its production is regulated by many inflammatory factors such as nitric oxide. we studied the role of mmp-2 on the analgesic effects of nnos inhibitor. methods: considering that nitric oxide has many roles in pain processing, we studied the csf levels of mmp-2 af...
