this study was conducted to examine if allergic contact dermatitis (acd) alters the expression of mmps in human dermal fibroblasts. fibroblasts are the primary source for mmp and matrix production in skin. mmps are known to involve in a number of physiological and pathological processes. some published data indicated a gelatinase-like activity in acute and chronic phases of allergic contact der...

Many species belonging to the Scrophularia genus have been used since ancient times as folk remedies for many medical conditions such as scrofulas, scabies, tumors, eczema, psoriasis, inflammations. The aim of this study was to characterize the matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) inhibitor compounds of the Scrophularia striata extract by bio-guide fractionation. The aerial parts of S. striata were...

Controversial immunomodulatory properties of bee venom (BV) have provided an appropriate field for more investigation. The aim of present research was to verify the effects of honeybee venom on matrix metalloproteinase activity and interferon production as well as cell proliferation in monocyte and fibroblast cell lines.The monocyte and fibroblast cell lines (K562, HT-1080, WEHI-164) were used ...
