An enlarging family of matrix-metalloproteinases has been identified that are calcium-dependent enzymes which specifically degrade collagens and noncollagenous substrates (see [37] for review).
Indian scientists have developed a groundbreaking self-actuating drug delivery system for Rheumatoid Arthritis offering targeted relief with fewer side effects and longer-lasting results ...
Researchers from the Institute of Nano Science and Technology (INST) Mohali, an autonomous institution of the Department of Science and Technology (DST), have developed an innovative “self-actuating” ...
which suggests that knockdown of GP73 might block the trafficking and secretion of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) (18, 19). Further pieces of evidence prove that, as well as GP73/EGFR interaction, ...
MMP are zinc-containing proteases which degrade extracellular matrix (ECM), including the BBB and are inhibited by tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMP). They are critical in tissue ...
Bone-marrow-derived multipotent progenitor stromal cells — or mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) — are the common predecessors of cells of the mesenchymal lineage, such as bone, cartilage and fat ...
