ARCN1 — MMP9
Text-mined interactions from Literome
Baraldo et al., Chest 2007
(Disease Progression...) :
In all compartments,
MMP-2 expression was
increased both in smokers with severe COPD and in smokers with mild/moderate
COPD compared to control smokers and nonsmokers ( p < 0.05 for all comparisons )
Muroski et al., Curr Pharm Biotechnol 2008
(Multiple Sclerosis...) :
These observations lead to the hypothesis that
MMP-9 is a potential drug
target for both
COPD and MS and further development of highly potent and specific MMP-9 inhibitors is warranted
Gao et al., Zhongguo Zhong Xi Yi Jie He Za Zhi 2012
(Pulmonary Disease, Chronic Obstructive) :
Compared with the normal control group, the serum
MMP-9 level obviously
increased in the
COPD of CDS group ( P < 0.05 ). The MMP-1 mRNA expression level in the bone tissue of the COPD of CDS group and the COPD model group also obviously increased ( P < 0.01, P < 0.05 ). The MMP-1 mRNA expression level was obviously higher in the COPD of CDS group than in the COPD model group ( P < 0.01 ). There was no statistical difference in the serum TNF-alpha level among the three groups ( P > 0.05 )
Simpson et al., Mediators Inflamm 2013
(Inflammation...) :
TLR2 levels were increased with ageing, while sputum neutrophils and total sputum
MMP-9 levels
increased with age, previous smoking, and
COPD
