LEP — MMP3

Text-mined interactions from Literome

Park et al., Exp Mol Med 2001 (Arteriosclerosis...) : Leptin also induced increases of MMP-2, MMP-9 , TIMP-1, and Up-regulated the human coronary artery smooth muscle cells ( HCASMCs )
Quinton et al., Am J Reprod Immunol 2003 : Expression of leptin receptor isoforms in vitro : lack of effects of leptin on endometrial cytokine and MMP production ... The effect of leptin on cell growth and on the production of cytokines [Leukaemia Inhibitory Factor (LIF), interleukin 6 and tumour necrosis factor-alpha ] and matrix metalloproteinases ( MMP ) ( MMP2 and MMP-9 ) was also investigated ... Leptin had no effect on cytokine and MMP production by these cells
Schulz et al., Biol Reprod 2004 : Our results suggest that leptin may play a role in the establishment of the placenta during early pregnancy and that this function is dependent on MMP activity
Schram et al., J Mol Cell Cardiol 2008 : Here we investigated the effects of leptin , circulating levels of which are typically increased in obese individuals, on MMP and collagen expression and MMP activity in isolated cardiac myofibroblasts
Bao et al., Mol Biol Rep 2010 : Leptin significantly increased both gene and protein levels of MMP-2, MMP-9 , cathepsin D, and collagen II, while decreased bFGF markedly in cartilage
Tao et al., Arterioscler Thromb Vasc Biol 2013 (Aortic Aneurysm, Abdominal...) : Leptin and leptin receptor antigen were evident in all AAAs, and leptin, MMP-9 , and MMP-12 mRNA was increased relative to age matched nondilated controls
