The attachment of the blastocyst to the uterine luminal epithelium and the subsequent invasion by trophoblast cells through the stroma and deciduum occur in a highly regulated manner by remodeling of the extracellular matrix. We investigated the temporal and spatial expression of mRNAs for four matr
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinase (TIMPs) play an important role in tissue destruction and remodeling. Nine samples of cement interface tissues from nine patients who had failed cemented total hip arthroplasty (THA) were obtained for revision of THA and anal
Tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-I (TIMP-I) is known to have at least 2 distinct types of activity, i.e., as a regulator of collagenolytic activity, and erythroid potentiating activity (EPA). In this study, we examined the expression of TIMP-I in human mammary carcinomas, non-malignant breast
## Studies of tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) suggest that one of their main functions is to inhibit metalloproteinase (MMP) activity and thus prevent tumor invasion by preserving extraceilular matrix (ECM) integrity. In the present study we examined the distribution of transcripts
Surprisingly, a successful human pregnancy requires cells from the fetal portion of the placenta (cytotrophoblasts) to adopt tumor-like properties. Cytotrophoblasts attach the conceptus to the endometrium by invading the uterus, and they initiate blood flow to the placenta by breaching maternal vess
