31 views | Dec 11 2020
Pradeep K Kudipudi et al. found that BG shedding served a major role in TGF-β2 signaling in Sertoli cells. [Read the Full Post]
Protease inhibitors elicit anti-inflammatory effects in CF mice with Pseudomonas aeruginosa acute lung infection
28 views | Dec 11 2020
A Sandri et al. thought that marimastat and Ilomastat represented candidate molecules for the treatment of CF patients, encouraging further studies on protease inhibitors and their application in inflammatory diseases. [Read the Full Post]
An Ilomastat-CD Eye Drop Formulation to Treat Ocular Scarring
147 views | Mar 06 2020
Mohamed-Ahmed AHA et al. showed that Ilomastat-CD has the potential to be formulated as an eye drop for use as an antifibrotic, which may have implications for the prevention of scarring in many settings, for example glaucoma filtration surgery. [Read the Full Post]
Hypoxia-Induced Cleavage Of Soluble ephrinA1 From Cancer Cells Is Mediated By MMP-2 And Associates With Angiogenesis In Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma
166 views | Dec 04 2019
Ma TT et al suggested a possible novel mechanism that ephrinA1 secretion is mediated by HIF-1α/MMP-2 signaling cascade which may play pivotal roles in OSCC neovascularization in a paracrine manner. [Read the Full Post]
MMP14-Containing Exosomes Cleave VEGFR1 and Promote VEGFA-Induced Migration and Proliferation of Vascular Endothelial Cells
220 views | Jun 16 2019
Han KY et al. showed that MMP14-containing exosomes may be involved in the regulation of corneal neovascularization through degradation of VEGFR1 and VEGFA-induced endothelial cell proliferation and migration. [Read the Full Post]
