Matrix Metalloproteinase 3 - Biosynthesis
Research News and Information

Definition of 'Matrix Metalloproteinase 3'

An extracellular endopeptidase of vertebrate tissues similar to MATRIX METALLOPROTEINASE 1. It digests PROTEOGLYCAN; FIBRONECTIN; COLLAGEN types III, IV, V, and IX, and activates procollagenase. (Enzyme Nomenclature, 1992)

Common names: Matrix Metalloproteinase 3; Metalloproteinase 3, Matrix; Transin; Stromelysin; Stromelysin 1; MMP-3 Metalloproteinase; MMP 3 Metalloproteinase; Metalloproteinase, MMP-3; MMP3 Metalloproteinase; Metalloproteinase, MMP3

Temporal growth factor release from platelet-rich plasma, trehalose lyophilized platelets, and bone marrow aspirate and their effect on tendon and ligament gene expression.

30 Jul 2009 Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has generated substantial interest for tendon and ligament regeneration because of the high concentrations of growth factors in platelet alpha-granules. This study compared the temporal release of growth factors from bone ... Read more...


Tendon degeneration is not mediated by regulation of Toll-like receptors 2 and 4 in human tenocytes.

30 Jul 2009 We hypothesized that expression of Toll-like receptors (TLRs) 2 and 4 by tenocytes is involved in the catabolic processes of tendon degeneration. We investigated TLR2 and TLR4 expression by tenocytes in healthy and tendinotic Achilles tendons. We ... Read more...


Tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) induces stromelysin-1 (MMP-3) in endothelial cells through activation of lipoprotein receptor-related protein.

14 Jul 2009 Tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) is approved for treatment of ischemic stroke patients, but it increases the risk of intracranial bleeding (ICB). Previously, we have shown in a mouse stroke model that stromelysin-1 (matrix ... Read more...
