We examined the production and tissue localization of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) in gastric carcinoma tissues. MMP-I (tissue collagenase), MMP-9 (gelatinase B) and TIMP-2 were immunolocalized in carcinoma cells and MMP-2 (gelatinase A) on tum

## Abstract Matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)‐2 and ‐9 play important roles in the progression of atherosclerosis. This study aims to determine whether MMP‐2 and ‐9 content in the fibrotic caps of atherosclerotic plaque is correlated with plaque autofluorescence. A time‐resolved laser‐induced fluoresc
## Abstract The ubiquitin‐proteasome pathway (UPP) is involved in the degradation of the extracellular matrix (ECM) and trophoblastic invasion during early pregnancy. Our previous studies demonstrated that inhibition of UPP suppresses expression of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)‐2 and ‐9. LMP2 is a
