Elevated aqueous humour tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinase-1 and connective tissue growth factor in pseudoexfoliation syndrome.
BACKGROUND/AIMS Pseudoexfoliation syndrome (PXF) was recently found to be associated with increased expression of transforming growth factor beta(1) (TGFbeta(1)) in the aqueous humour. As concern has been raised regarding anti-TGFbeta therapy, which can potentially disrupt the maintenance of anterior chamber associated immune deviation, the authors explored the levels of tissue inhibitor of mat...
متن کاملFibrillin degradation by matrix metalloproteinases: implications for connective tissue remodelling.
Fibrillin is the principal structural component of the 10-12 nm diameter elastic microfibrils of the extracellular matrix. We have previously shown that both fibrillin molecules and assembled microfibrils are susceptible to degradation by serine proteases. In this study, we have investigated the potential catabolic effects of six matrix metalloproteinases (MMP-2, MMP-3, MMP-9, MMP-12, MMP-13 an...
متن کاملTotal Hip Arthroplasty Matrix Metalloproteinase TIMP ANALYSIS OF MEMBRANE TYPE 1 - MATRIX METALLOPROTEINASE, MATRIX METALLOPROTEINASE-2 AND TISSUE INHIBITOR OF METALLOPROTEINSE-2 IN LOOSE HIP PERIPROSTHETIC CONNECTIVE TISSUES
Introduction: The biocompatibility of total hip prostheses has been the subject of debate for three decades, and currently it appears evident that the loosening of technically well inserted prostheses is in part due to cellular responses in periprosthetic connective tissues. Despite of intensive research, the precise biological mechanisms responsible for the loosening of total hip joints have n...
متن کاملeffect of portulaca oleracea seeds on the levels of matrix metalloproteinase 2, 9 and tissue inhibitor matrix metalloproteinase 1 in patients with type 2 diabetes
objective: diabetes plays an important role in the progression of tissue damage. influencing factors of the cellular matrix can lead to changes in the structure and function of tissues or their failure. herbal consumption can be effective in reducing tissue failure. the aim of the this study is to research the effect portulaca oleracea seeds on the levels of matrix metalloproteinase 2, 9 and ti...
متن کاملConnective tissue growth factor is increased in plasma of type 1 diabetic patients with nephropathy.
OBJECTIVE Connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) is strongly upregulated in fibrotic disorders and has been hypothesized to play a role in the development and progression of diabetes complications. The aim of the present study was to investigate the possible association of plasma CTGF levels in type 1 diabetic patients with markers relevant to development of diabetes complications. RESEARCH D...
