  • Marine ecosystems are often characterized by a high biological diversity, and it corresponds to a high chemical diversity. Up to present, more than 20,000 new bioactive substances have been isolated from marine organisms, where considerable numbers of these naturally occurring derivatives are developed as potential candidates for pharmaceutical application. In this process, screening of natural products from marine organisms that could potentially inhibit the expression of metalloproteinases has gained a huge popularity. Cancer is considered as one of the deadliest diseases in the medical field. Matrix metalloproteinase (MMPs) can degrade extracellular matrix (ECM) components and play important roles in a variety of biological and pathological processes. Matrix metalloproteinase inhibitors (MMPIs) have been identified as potential therapeutic candidates for metastasis, arthritis, chronic inflammation and wrinkle formation.

  • The joint disease including osteoarthris (OA) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are common in the horse. Many studies have been performed to develop biochemical markers reflecting the abnormalities of cartilage and synovial membrane. However, no specific, sensitive and clinically well established assay systems have been yet available to characterize the severity of joint diseases. Indeed, radiography is still doctor's best choice of assessing joint damage in OA/RA. This review focuses on biochemical molecules such as proteoglycan, collagen, matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), lectin and cytokine to assess their potential value for not only predicting stage of joint disease but also monitoring treatment efficacy.

  • Naringenin, major one of the citrus flavonoids, have been identified that exert antioxidative, anticancer effects. The present study investigated the effects of naringenin on tumor invasion and matrix metalloproteinases(MMPs) activities. Naringenin inhibited cell invasion of HT-1080 fibrosarcoma cells in a dose-dependent manner. The activities of MMP-2 and MMP-9 were inhibited by naringenin as demonstrated by gelatin zymography assay. Furthermore, the amounts of MMP-2, MMP-9, and MT1-MMP mRNA were analyzed in the cells. MMP-2, MMP-9, and MT1-MMP mRNA expression were suppressed by naringenin with time and dose-dependent. These results demonstrate that anti-metastatic activities of naringenin resulted from blocking of invasion of the HT-1080 cells. Taken together, the results of this studies provide evidence that naringenin possess an anti-metastatic activity.

  • Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), plays a key role in angiogenesis. Many endogenous factors can affect angiogenesis in endothelial cells. VEGF is known to be a strong migration, sprouting, survival, and proliferation factor for endothelial cells during angiogenesis in endothelial cells. Searching for novel genes involved in VEGF signaling during angiogenesis, we carried out differential display polymerase chain reaction on RNA from VEGF-stimulated human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). In this study, follistatin (FS) differentially expressed in VEGF-treated HUVECs, compared with controls. Addition of VEGF (10ng/L) produced an approximately 11.8-fold increase of FS mRNA. F5 or VEGF produced approximately 1.8- or 2.9-fold increases, respectively, in matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) secretion for 12h, compared to the addition of a control buffer. We suggest that VEGF may affect the angiogenic effect of HUVECs, through a combination of the direct effects of VEGF itself, and the indirect effects mediated via induction of FS in vitro.

  • Plant matrix metalloproteases (MMPs) are a family of apoplastic metalloproteases closely related to human matrilysins. Up-regulation of Nicotiana benthamiana matrix metalloprotease 1 (NMMP1) expression by treatment with pathogens, ethephon and aging indicates that the gene is related to plant defense and the aging process through ethylene signaling. NMMP1 expression was higher than in normal growth leaves following infection with an incompatible pathogen Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato T1 or a compatible pathogen P. syringae pv. tabaci and in aged leaves. Transient overexpression of NMMP1 in N. benthamiana leaves lowered the growth of P. syringae pv. tabaci. However, NMMP1-silenced leaves showed increased growth of P. syringae pv. tabaci. These data strongly suggest that NMMP1 in N. benthamiana is a defense related gene, which is positively regulated by ethylene.

  • Tumor cell invasion and metastasis are a complex multistep process that involves the degradation of extracellular matrix proteins by matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). Tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1) acts as a negative regulator of matrix metalloproteinase and thus prevents tumor cell invasion and metastasis by preserving extracellular matrix integrity.(omitted)

  • The matrix metalloproteases (MMPs) play important roles in invasion, metastasis and angiogenesis in various cell types. Tissue inhibitor of metalloprotease (TIMP)-2, an endogenopus inhibitor of MMP-2, has been shown to inhibit invasion and metastasis. We have previously shown that MMP-2 is responsible for the H-ras-induced invasive and migrative phenotypes in MCF10A human breast epithelial cells. Here, we investigated the effect of TlMP-2 overexpression on invasion and migration in H-ras MCF10A cells. (omitted)

  • To date, the development of anticancer drugs has been conducted using two-dimensional (2D) cell culture systems. However, since cancer cells in the body are generated and developed in three-dimensional (3D) microenvironments, the use of 2D anticancer drug screening can make it difficult to accurately evaluate the anticancer effects of drug candidates. Therefore, as a step towards developing a cancer cell-friendly 3D microenvironment based on a combination of vinylsulfone-functionalized polyethylene glycol (PEG-VS) with dicysteine-containing crosslinker peptides with an intervening matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-specific cleavage site, the types of MMPs secreted from human hepatocarcinoma HepG2 cells, a representative cancer cell, were analyzed transcriptionally and translationally. MMP3 was confirmed to be the most highly expressed protease secreted by HepG2 cells. This knowledge will be important in the design of a crosslinker necessary for the construction of PEG-based hydrogels customized for the 3D culture of HepG2 cells.

  • 목적 : 금속단백효소(MMPs)는 세포외 기질의 분해가 주 기능이며 금속단백효소와 억제자(TIMPS)가 상처 치유 과정과 자외선 조사에 의한 피부노화에 관여한다는 것이 알려져 있다. 그러나 방사선조사 후 금속단백효소와 억제자의 발현에 관한 연구는 보고된 바 없다. 본 연구는 흰쥐의 소장에 방사선을 조사하여 금속단백효소와 억제자의 발현을 시간적으로 관찰하여 방사선에 의한 소장 점막 손상 및 재생과정과 금속단백효소와 억제자의 관계를 밝히고자하였다. 대상 및 방법 : 실험동물로 암, 수 구별 없이 생후 4~5개월, 체중 250~300 gm의 흰쥐(Spraque-Dawley) 30마리를 대상으로 하여 실험군으로 전복부에 8 Gy의 방사선을 조사한 후 1일, 2일, 3일, 5일, 7일, 14일에 각각 5마리씩 희생시켜 소장을 적출하여 사용하였고, 정상대조군은 각 시기별로 1마리씩 사용하였다. H&E 염색을 하여 조직병리검사를 하였고, MMP와 TIMP끌의 발현에 대해서는 면역조직화학염색, 면역블로팅, ELISA법으로 확인하였다. 결과 : 조직병리 소견상 방사선조사에 의한 소장 조직손상은 1일부터 관찰되어 2일과 3일에 현저하였고 재생은 3일에 관찰되어 5일에 현저하였다 면역조직화학염색 결과 MMP는 1일에 발현되어 3일, 5일에 가장 강하게 나타났으며 TIMP를는 1일에 나타나기 시작하여 5일에 가장 강하게 나타났다. 면역블로팅 결과 MMP◎는 3일과 5일에강하게 나타났으며 TIMP끌는 1, 3, 5, 7일에 같은 정도의 양성반응을 보였다. 혈액에서의 MMP와 TIMP의 ELISA 검사법에서는 대조군에 비해 방사선조사군에서 통계적으로 유의한 증가가 있었고 방사선조사 후 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 14일 각각에서 유의한 차이가 있었으며 5일에 가장 높은 수치를 보였다. 결론 : 방사선조사 후 조직병리학적 검사에서 손상의 척도인 염증 반응과 재생의 척도인 유사분열 수의 변화가 면역조직화학염색, 면역블로팅, ELISA검사에 의한 MMP-2, TIMP의 증가와 일치하는 것으로 나타나 이들이 방사선 조사 후 조직 손상과 재생 기전에 역할을 하고 있음을 보여주었다.

  • 연구배경 :임상적으로 만성 기관지염 환자의 호흡기 증상이 급격히 악화되는 것으로 정의되는 만성 기관지염의 급성악화는 기도의 폐쇄를 조장하여 만성 폐쇄성 폐질환으로의 진행을 촉진시키는 것으로 알려져 있다. 방 법 :만성 기관지염의 급성악화 환자 40명을 대상으로 하였으며 대상 환자를 무작위로 moxifloxacin군과 clarithromycin군으로 나누어 항생제를 경구투여 하였다.항생제를 복용 하기 전과 항생제를 7일간 복용한 후 각각 객담을 유도 처리하여 유도객담 상층액 내의 IL-8, SLPI, MMP-1, MMP-9, TIMP-1의 농도를 ELISA 방법으로 측정하였다. 결 과 : 항생제 투여에 의해 유도객담 내 TIMP-l의 농도와 TIMP-1/MMP-1의 분자량 비율이 유의하게 감소하였고 (p<0.05), 유도객담 내 SLPI의 농도는 유의하게 증가하였다(p<0.01) 급성악화 시 유도객담 내의 TIMP-1의 농도(p<0.01, r=0.751)와 TIMP-l/MMP-1의 분자량 비율(p<0.01, r=0.752)은 IL-8과 유의한 상관관계를 보이고 있었으며 항생제 치료로 호전이 된 이후에도 IL-8과의 상관관계는 계속 관찰되었다. 급성악화 시 유도객담 내 SLPI의 농도는 유도객담 내 TIMP-1(p<0.01, r=-0.496)과 TIMP-1/MMP-1(p<0.01, r=-0.456)의 분자량 비율 변화와 유약한 상관관계가 있었다. 그러나 유도객담 내 MMP-1, MMP-9의 농도 그리고 TIMP-l/MMP-9의 분자량 비율은 IL-8이나 SLPI의 농도와 유의한 상관관계가 없었다. 결 론 : 만성 기관지염의 급성 악화에 의해 TIMP와 MMPs의 불균형이 초래되며 TIMP가 상대적으로 많이 증가함으로써 기도 내 ECM이 축적되는데 적절한 항생제를 사용하지 않았을 때에는 이러한 기도벽의 재구성이 반복되어 기도의 폐쇄가 심해질 것으로 생각된다. TIMP와 MMPs의 불균형은 항생제 치료에 의하여 호전이 됨으로 적절한 항생제 치료는 만성 기관지염의 급성악화에 의한 비가역성 기도 폐쇄가 진행되는 것을 어느 정도 예방할 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.
