Disease relevance of MMP13

 

High impact information on MMP13

  • Neither secreted collagenases (MMP-1 and MMP-13), gelatinases (gelatinase A or B), stromelysins (MMP-3 and MMP-11), or matrilysin (MMP-7) affected SF/HGF-induced responses [4].
  • Treatment with licofelone decreased, in a dose-dependent manner, the OA bone morphological changes at the same time it reduced the level of MMP-13 in bone cells and the number of cathepsin K and MMP-13 positive osteoclasts [1].
  • The canine MMP-13 promoter fragment was sufficient to drive basal expression of a luciferase reporter gene in both Madin Darby canine kidney cells (MDCK) and primary rat cardiocytes [5].
  • Myocardial MMP-9 and MMP-13 levels by immunoblot increased with chronic pacing relative to controls (130 +/- 10% and 118 +/- 6%, P < 0.05) and was normalized by TNF block [6].
  • MMP-13 gene expression as determined by real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction was elevated in OC samples and cartilage explants cultured without mechanical stimuli (0 MPa groups) compared to normal cartilage (day 0 controls) [7].
 

Anatomical context of MMP13

 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of MMP13

  • Quantitative RT-PCR showed that PD-0200347 significantly reduced the expression of MMP-13, a key mediator in OA [8].
  • Western immunoblotting identified the presence of MMP-8 and MMP-13 immunoreactivities, of which the latter was converted to active form [2].
