The tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-3 (TIMP-3), a recently cloned member of TIMP gene family, has been implicated in the negative regulation of tumor cell invasion and tumor growth. Down-regulation of this gene has been shown to occur in a mouse carcinogenesis model, suggesting that it might p
A complex interplay between enzymes involved in extracellular matrix formation and their inhibitors is thought to control organogenesis during mammalian development. Disturbance of this balance may result in a wide range of diseases, including macular degeneration, arthritis, and tumor metastases. I
The degradative effects of interleukin-1 (IL-1) on the extracellular matrix of connective tissue are mediated primarily by metalloproteinases and prostaglandins. Clinical observations suggest that these effects can be prevented, to some extent, by the use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. We
