Increased acinar damage of salivary glands of patients with Sjogren's syndrome is paralleled by simultaneous imbalance of matrix metalloproteinase 3/tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases 1 and matrix metalloproteinase 9/tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases 1 ratios
(WILEY-LISS, DIV JOHN WILEY & SONS INC, 2005-09)
Objective. Previous findings in labial salivary glands (LSGs) from patients with Sjogren ' s syndrome (SS) suggest that increased activity and expression of matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9) and MMP-3 trigger the destruction ...
Updating the role of matrix metalloproteinases in mineralized tissue and related diseases
(Faculdade De Odontologia De Bauru - USP, 2019)
Abstract Bone development and healing processes involve a complex cascade of biological events requiring well-orchestrated synergism with bone cells, growth factors, and other trophic signaling molecules and cellular ...
Longitudinal analysis of metalloproteinases, tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases and clinical parameters in gingival crevicular fluid from periodontitis-affected patients
(2005)
Background: The aim of this work was to improve the assessment of the
periodontal disease status through measurements of extracellular matrix
metalloproteinases (MMPs) and their tissular inhibitors (TIMPs) in the ...
Increases in circulating matrix metalloproteinase-9 levels following fibrinolysis for acute pulmonary embolism
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2010)
Introduction: Fibrinolyis is one of the first line therapies in high risk pulmonary embolism (PE) according to current guidelines. Previous studies showed that brinolytic therapy with tPA (tissue plasminogen activator, or ...
Matrix Metalloproteinase (MMP)-2 Genetic Variants Modify the Circulating MMP-2 Levels in End-Stage Kidney Disease
(KARGERBASEL, 2012)
Background: Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) play important roles in the pathophysiology of renal diseases, and imbalanced MMP-2 and its endogenous inhibitor (the tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-2; TIMP-2) are ...
Matrix metalloproteinases with gelatinolytic activity induced by Paracoccidioides brasiliensis infection
(WILEY-BLACKWELL PUBLISHING, INC, 2009)
P>Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) modulate extracellular matrix turnover, inflammation and immunity. We studied MMP-9 and MMP-2 in experimental paracoccidioidomycosis. At 15 and 120 days after infection (DAI) with virulent ...
