The effects of zinc treatment on matrix metalloproteinases: A systematic review.

TLDR
The inhibitory or stimulatory effect of Zn on MMPs seems to depend on physiological conditions of the cells or animals used, dose ofZn used, and duration of treatment.

Icariside II attenuates cerebral ischemia/reperfusion-induced blood–brain barrier dysfunction in rats via regulating the balance of MMP9/TIMP1

TL;DR: Findings reveal that ICS II significantly ameliorates I/R-induced BBB disruption and neuronal apoptosis in MCAO rats by regulating the MMP9/TIMP1 balance and inhibiting the caspase 3-dependent apoptosis pathway.

Corilagin ameliorates atherosclerosis by regulating MMP-1, -2, and -9 expression in vitro and in vivo.

TL;DR: In this article, the anti-atherosclerotic effects and the underlying mechanisms of corilagin were evaluated and it was shown that Corilagin treatment significantly reduced the degree of injury in the common carotid artery and decreased the number of lipid plaques and foam cells.

Matrix Metalloproteinases: A Review

TL;DR: The present review discusses in detail the primary structures and the overlapping yet distinct substrate specificities of MMPs as well as the mode of activation of the unique MMP precursors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structure and function of matrix metalloproteinases and TIMPs

TL;DR: The members of the MMP family are introduced and their domain structure and function, proenyme activation, the mechanism of inhibition by TIMPs and their significance in physiology and pathology are discussed.

Matrix Metalloproteinase Inhibitors and Cancer—Trials and Tribulations

TL;DR: The studies that brought MPIs into clinical testing are reviewed and the design and outcome of the trials are discussed in light of new information about the cellular source, substrates, and mode of action of MMPs at different stages of tumor progression.
Journal ArticleDOI

Changing Views of the Role of Matrix Metalloproteinases in Metastasis

TL;DR: A new view of the functional role of M MPs in metastasis is presented, which suggests that MMPs are important in creating and maintaining an environment that supports the initiation and maintenance of growth of primary and metastatic tumors.
