Batroxase, a new metalloproteinase from B. atrox snake venom with strong fibrinolytic activity
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTDOXFORD, 2012)
The structures and functional activities of metalloproteinases from snake venoms have been widely studied because of the importance of these molecules in envenomation. Batroxase, which is a metalloproteinase isolated from ...
Role of matrix metalloproteinases 2 and 9 in ex vivo Trypanosoma cruzi infection of human placental chorionic villi
(2012)
Background: Chagas' disease is caused by the haemophlagelated protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi (T. cruzi). During congenital transmission the parasite breaks down the placental barrier. In the present study we analyzed the ...
Differential effects of leptin on ovarian metalloproteinases and their tissue inhibitors between in vivo and in vitro studies
(BioScientifica, 2011-04)
In this study, we investigated the effect of leptin on the ovarian metalloproteinase system in the rat during the ovulatory process. Ovulation was induced in immature rats primed with gonadotropins. In both in vitro and ...
Triacontyl p-coumarate: An inhibitor of snake venom metalloproteinases
(2013-02-01)
Snake venom metalloproteinases (SVMPs) participate in a number of important biological, physiological and pathophysiological processes and are primarily responsible for the local tissue damage characteristic of viperid ...

The effect of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) on dentin bonding and nanoleakage of etch-and-rinse adhesives
(2013-10-01)
Objective The objective was to examine the effect of a solvent dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) on resin-dentin bond durability, as well as potential functional mechanisms behind the effect. Methods Microtensile bond strength ...

Proteinase-activated receptor-2 (PAR2) agonist causes periodontitis in rats
(2005-02-01)
Proteinase-activated receptor-2 (PAR2) is a G-protein-coupled receptor that mediates cellular responses to extracellular proteinases. Since PAR2 is expressed by oral epithelial cells, osteoblasts, and gingival fibroblasts, ...
