Perspectives in Pharmacology Role of Matrix Metalloproteinases in Intestinal Inflammation
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and their endogenous inhibitors, tissue inhibitors of MMPs (TIMPs), are produced in the gastrointestinal tract by several structural cells. The balance between MMPs and TIMPs is essential for many physiological processes in the gut. However, imbalance between MMPs and TIMPs plays an important role in the pathophysiology of diverse intestinal inflammatory conditi...
متن کاملExpression of Matrix Metalloproteinases-2 and -9 in Intestinal Tissue of Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) Short title: gelatinases in IBD
Background/aims. Matrix metalloproteinases are major contributors in the breakdown and reconstitution of basement membranes and extracellular matrix in pathophysiological processes. We assessed the expression of matrix metalloproteinases-2 and -9 in intestinal tissue of patients with inflammatory bowel disease. Patients/methods. Resected tissue specimens from patients with Crohn’s disease or ul...
متن کاملSuppressive effect of secretory phospholipase A2 inhibitory peptide on interleukin-1β-induced matrix metalloproteinase production in rheumatoid synovial fibroblasts, and its antiarthritic activity in hTNFtg mice
INTRODUCTION Secretory phospholipase A2 (sPLA2) and matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) inhibitors are potent modulators of inflammation with therapeutic potential, but have limited efficacy in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The objective of this study was to understand the inhibitory mechanism of phospholipase inhibitor from python (PIP)-18 peptide in cultured synovial fibroblasts (SF), and to evaluate...

متن کاملNovel Matrix Metalloproteinases in Intestinal Inflammation and in Cancer of the Gastrointestinal Tract
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) comprise a family of 23 zinc-dependent human endopeptidases that can degrade virtually all components of the extracellular matrix (ECM). They are classified into eight subgroups according to their structure and into six subgroups based on their substrate-specificity. MMPs have been implicated in inflammation, tissue destruction, cell migration, arthritis, vascul...
