Journal ArticleDOI

Activation of Type IV Procollagenases by Human Tumor-associated Trypsin-2*

TL;DR: The ability of human tumor cell-derived trypsin-2 to activate latent MMPs suggests a role for trypsIn-2 in initiating the proteinase cascade that mediates tumor invasion and metastasis formation.
Journal ArticleDOI

MMP inhibition and downregulation by bisphosphonates.

TL;DR: It is discovered that various matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are inhibited in vitro by several bisphosphonates, which has the potential to become one of the main MMP‐inhibitors for MMP-related human soft and hard tissue‐destructive diseases in the near future.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of tetracyclines on neutrophil, gingival, and salivary collagenases. A functional and western-blot assessment with special reference to their cellular sources in periodontal diseases.

TL;DR: The key role of PMN-MMPs in periodontitis is extended, and the activities of these PMN MMPs can be inhibited directly by therapeutic levels of DOXY, providing evidence for noncompetitive inhibition.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Effects of MMP Inhibitors on Human Salivary MMP Activity and Caries Progression in Rats

TL;DR: It is suggested that MMPs have an important role in dentin caries pathogenesis, and that CMT-3 and zoledronate inhibitors may prove to be useful in the prevention of caries progression.
Journal ArticleDOI

Expression and induction of collagenases (MMP-8 and -13) in plasma cells associated with bone-destructive lesions.

TL;DR: It is concluded that plasma cell MMP‐13 has a particularly important role in benign and malignant bone‐destructive lesions in chronic inflammation and neoplastic growth.
