Análisis inmunohistoquímico de MMP-1, MMP-2 y MMP-9 en ameloblastoma convencional
Immunohistochemical analysis of MMP-1, MMP-2, MMP-9 in conventional ameloblastoma

Rev. ADM; 80 (3), 2023
Introducción: las metaloproteinasas son enzimas que participan en la remodelación tisular y su función se relaciona con procesos fisiológicos y patológicos, como la invasión y la metástasis. El ameloblastoma convencional (AMC) es una neoplasia epitelial benigna odontogénica intraósea caracte...

Association of matrix metalloproteinase-1-1607 1G/2G single nucleotide polymorphism genotypes with periodontitis in Iraqi population

Braz. dent. sci; 25 (3), 2022
Objective and background: Periodontitis is an inflammatory disease which is characterized by a progressive loss in the matrix of soft and hard tissue of periodontium particularly the collagen fibers which are cleaved by matrix Metalloproteinase (MMP). Indeed, increased activity of MMP mediates progressio...

The study of Yangyinyiqi mixture anti bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis on rats by intervening matrix metalloproteinase-9 and tissue inhibitors of matrix metallopreoteinases-1

To investigate effectsof Yangyinyiqi Mixture on pulmonary fibrosis caused by bleomycin. SD ratswere divided randomly into: model group(distilled water,1 mL·0.1 kg-1), dexamethasone acetate group (dexamethasone acetate, the dosage was reduced gradually), low-dose group (Yangyinyiqi Mixture, 11 g·k...

Association between matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) protein level and the risk of rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis: a meta-analysis

Braz. j. med. biol. res; 54 (2), 2021
Recent publications have investigated the potential role of the protein level of matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) in the susceptibility to rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and osteoarthritis (OA). However, no unanimous conclusion was obtained. Therefore, we carried out a meta-analysis to explore the associati...

Association between -1607 1g/2g polymorphism of mmp1 and temporomandibular joint anterior disc displacement with reduction

Braz. dent. j; 31 (2), 2020
Abstract Anterior disc displacement with reduction (DDWR) is considered one of the most common disorders within the temporomandibular joint (TMJ), with a prevalence of 41% in adults. Matrix metalloproteinases play an important role in the degradation of the TMJ and the matrix metalloproteinase 1 (MMP1) 1...

The effect of colchicine on alveolar bone loss in ligature-induced periodontitis

Abstract Colchicine is widely used in the treatment of several inflammatory diseases due to its anti-inflammatory effect, but effects on bone metabolism are unclear. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of systemically-administered colchicine on healthy periodontium and experimentally-induce...

Molecular characterization of matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) in Lucilia sericata larvae for potential therapeutic applications

Background: The salivary glands of Lucilia sericata are the first organs to express specific endopeptidase enzymes. These enzymes play a central role in wound healing, and they have potential to be used therapeutically. Methods: Rapid amplification of cDNA ends and rapid amplification of genomic ends wer...

MMP1-1607 polymorphism increases the risk for periapical lesion development through the upregulation MMP-1 expression in association with pro-inflammatory milieu elements

J. appl. oral sci; 24 (4), 2016
ABSTRACT Increased matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) activity is a hallmark of periapical granulomas. However, the factors underlying the MMPs expression modulation in healthy and diseased periapical tissues remains to be determined. Objective In this study, we evaluated the association between the MMP1...

Effects of chitin and sepia ink hybrid sponge on the healing of burning wound rats and its impact on macrophages in vitro

Acta cir. bras; 31 (2), 2016
PURPOSE: To detect whether chitin and sepia ink sponge (CS) can promote wound healing and elevate impact of CS on phagocytosis ability of macrophages. METHODS: Forty-eight rats were assigned to four groups: Normal group (Normal), negative control group (Con), chitin and sepia ink sponge group (CS) and po...

Effects of Er-Miao-San extracts on TNF-alpha-indueed MMP-1 expression in human dermal fibroblasts

Biol. Res; 48 (), 2015
BACKGROUND: Various health benefits have been attributed to Er-Miao-San (EMS), a traditional Chinese herbal formulation that contains equal amounts of cortex phellodendri (Phellodendron amurense Ruprecht) and rhizoma atractylodis (Atractylodes lancea D.C). However, its effect on the anti-inflammatory act...
