Tissue Inhibitor of Metalloproteinases-2 (TIMP-2) Suppresses TKR-Growth Factor Signaling Independent of Metalloproteinase Inhibition

TLDR
These studies represent a new functional paradigm for TIMP-2 in which TIMP suppresses EGF-mediated mitogenic signaling by short-circuiting EGFR activation.

How Matrix Metalloproteinases Regulate Cell Behavior

TL;DR: Recent advances shed light on how the structure and function of the MMPs are related and on how their transcription, secretion, activation, inhibition, localization, and clearance are controlled.

The tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs): An ancient family with structural and functional diversity

TL;DR: Tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) are widely distributed in the animal kingdom and the human genome contains four paralogous genes encoding TIMPs 1 to 4, and their range of activities has now been found to be broader as it includes the inhibition of several of the disintegrin-metallop proteinases, ADAMs and ADAMTSs.

A novel function for tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-3 (TIMP3): inhibition of angiogenesis by blockage of VEGF binding to VEGF receptor-2.

TL;DR: The ability of TIMP3 to inhibit vascular endothelial factor (VEGF)–mediated angiogenesis is demonstrated and the potential mechanism by which this occurs is identified, indicating a new function for this molecule.

The Matrix Metalloproteinase System: Changes, Regulation, and Impact throughout the Ovarian and Uterine Reproductive Cycle

TL;DR: The current review will highlight the key features of the MMPs and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases, focus on the changes and regulation of theMMP system that take place throughout the estrous and menstrual cycles, and address the impact of the dynamic tissue remodeling processes on ovarian and uterine physiology.

MMP-9/Gelatinase B Is a Key Regulator of Growth Plate Angiogenesis and Apoptosis of Hypertrophic Chondrocytes

TL;DR: Transplantation of wild-type bone marrow cells rescues vascularization and ossification in gelatinase B-null growth plates, indicating that these processes are mediated by gelatinaseB-expressing cells of bone marrow origin, designated chondroclasts.

EGF receptor transactivation by G-protein-coupled receptors requires metalloproteinase cleavage of proHB-EGF

TL;DR: In this article, agents and methods for growth factor receptor activation by modulating the G-protein mediated signal transduction pathway were described, and a method to activate the growth factor receptors was proposed.

Inhibition of forskolin-induced neurite outgrowth and protein phosphorylation by a newly synthesized selective inhibitor of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, N-[2-(p-bromocinnamylamino)ethyl]-5-isoquinolinesulfonamide (H-89), of PC12D pheochromocytoma cells.

TL;DR: In this article, a newly synthesized isoquinolinesulfonamide, H-89 (N-[2-(p-bromocinnamylamino)ethyl]-5-isoquinoline-sulfoneamide), was shown to have a potent and selective inhibitory action against cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase A), with an inhibition constant of 0.048 +/- 0.008 microM.
