Ovarian tissue remodeling: role of matrix metalloproteinases and their inhibitors.
Follicular formation, growth or atresia, and ovulation as well as luteal formation and subsequent regression are dependent upon cyclical remodeling of the extracellular matrix (ECM). The proteinaceous and nonproteinaceous components of the ECM provide the tissue specific, extracellular architecture to which cells attach. Furthermore, the ECM modulates cellular activities through cellular surfac...
متن کاملMatrix metalloproteinases and their inhibitors in connective tissue remodeling.
Matrix metalloproteinases are an important group of zinc enzymes responsible for degradation of the extracellular matrix components such as collagen and proteoglycans in normal embryogenesis and remodeling and in many disease processes such as arthritis, cancer, periodontitis, and osteoporosis. A matrixin family is defined, comprising at least seven members that range in size from Mr 28,000 to ...
متن کاملMatrix metalloproteinases and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases in ovarian function.
Growth and ovulation of follicles, and development, maintenance, and regression of the corpus luteum depend on cyclical remodelling of the extracellular matrix. The extracellular matrix consists of proteinaceous and non-proteinaceous components and provides the tissue-specific, extracellular architecture to which cells attach, and modulates the activities of cells through cell surface receptors...
متن کاملvitrification affects the expression of matrix metalloproteinases and their tissue inhibitors of mouse ovarian tissue
background: one of the most major obstacles of ovarian tissue vitrification is suboptimal developmental competence of follicles. matrix metalloproteinases 2 (mmp-2) and 9 (mmp-9) and their tissue inhibitors timp-1 and timp-2 are involved in the remodeling of the extracellular matrix in the ovaries. objective: this study aimed to evaluate the expression of mmp-2, mmp-9, timp-1, and timp-2 genes ...
متن کاملClinical Investigation of Matrix Metalloproteinases, Tissue Inhibitors of Matrix Metalloproteinases, and Matrix Metalloproteinase/Tissue Inhibitors of Matrix Metalloproteinase Complexes and Their Networks in Apical Periodontitis.
INTRODUCTION This clinical study investigated the levels of metalloproteinases (MMPs) and their tissue inhibitors (TIMPs) and respective forms (MMP/TIMP complexes) in apical periodontitis to determine their networks in the development of clinical/radiographic features, thus quantifying the levels of endotoxins (lipopolysaccharides) present in primarily infected root canals with apical periodont...
