Deficiency of tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1) impairs nutritionally induced obesity in mice.
Tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinase-1 deficient (TIMP-1(-/-)) mice and wild-type (TIMP-1(+/+)) controls were kept on a standard (SFD) or a high fat diet (HFD) for 15 weeks. At the time of sacrifice, TIMP-1(-/-) mice on HFD had a significantly lower body weight (29 +/- 1.5 versus 41 +/- 1.8 g, p <0.005), and significantly less subcutaneous (0.81 +/- 0.19 versus 1.78 +/- 0.21 g, p <0.05)...
متن کاملangiotensin ii differentially induces matrix metalloproteinase-9 and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 production and disturbs mmp/timp balance
angiotensin ii, the main component of the renin-angiotensin system, is associated with cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension, vascular remodeling and inflammation. remodeling process results from dysregulation of matrix metalloproteinases (mmps) and their tissue inhibitors (timps). mmps are considered as important target genes for angiotensin ii. the aim of this study was to determine th...
متن کاملDeficiency of Tissue Inhibitor of Matrix Metalloproteinase-1 Exacerbates LV Remodeling Following Myocardial Infarction in Mice
Recent studies have directed the interests at modulating the heart failure process through inhibition of activated MMPs. We hypothesized that a loss of MMP inhibitory control by TIMP-1 deficiency alters the course of post-infarction chamber remodeling and induced chronic myocardial infarction in wild-type and TIMP-1-/-mice. LV pressure-volume loops obtained from wild-type and TIMP-1-/-mice demo...
متن کاملExpression of Matrix Metalloproteinase-2/9 and Tissue Inhibitor of Metalloproteinase-1/2 as Predictive Factors in Oropharyngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Introduction: Metalloproteinases and their tissue inhibitors play an important role in the metastases formation. A multistage process of carcinogenesis requires the involvement of numerous enzymes and compounds that facilitate the expansion of tumor cells. The formation of metastases depends on both metalloproteinases and tissue inhibitors activation leading to the acti...
متن کاملImmunohistochemical expression of tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1) in invasive breast carcinoma.
Tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1) is a natural inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). Aim of this study was to assess the immunohistochemical expression of TIMP-1 in invasive breast carcinomas, and to examine its association with classical clinico-pathological parameters, oestrogen receptor, progesterone receptor and Her-2/neu protein expression. Immunohistochemistry was ...
