Anatomical context of TIMP-2

 

Associations of TIMP-2 with chemical compounds

  • Other serine and cysteine protease inhibitors as well as TIMP-2 and BB-2116 (natural tissue inhibitor-2 and synthetic inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinases [MMPs], respectively) were ineffective [7].
  • Immunoblotting for tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMP-1 and TIMP-2) showed no decreased production in the doxycycline-treated groups [8].
  • Hematoxylin and eosin staining, safranin O staining, and immunostaining [matrix metalloprotease-1 (MMP-1) and tissue inhibitor of metalloprotease-2 (TIMP-2)] were used for the histological evaluations of transplanted cartilage [9].
 

Other interactions of TIMP-2

  • The concentrations were influenced by the type of tissue (TIMP-1, P < 0.005; TIMP-2, P < 0.005, TIMP-3, P > 0.05), and the highest concentrations occurred in the theca tissue [10].
