## Abstract Expression of 12 matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) after exposure of human melanoma cell lines C32TG and Mewo to nitric oxide (NO) was investigated by the reverse transcriptionβpolymerase chain reaction. Expression of the mRNA of MMPβ1, β3, β10 and β13 in C32TG cells was transcriptionall

In order to define the role of cyclin D1 in the progression of malignant glioma, cells over-expressing cyclin D1 were constructed (a-1 cells). They exhibited significantly increased invasiveness as compared with mock-transfected cells. Since cellular invasion is thought to depend on extracellular-ma
Neuroinflammatory diseases are associated with increased production of matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) and excessive generation of nitric oxide (NO). NO has been reported to have variable effects on MMP-9 gene expression and activation in various cell types. In the present study, we investigated
