MMP-1 polymorphism and its relationship to pathological processes

Abstract: Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a family of zinc (Zn)-dependent endopeptidases that are collectively capable of cleaving virtually all extracellular matrix (ECM) substrates and play an important role in diverse physiological and pathological processes. The activity of MMPs is regulated at multiple levels. The transcriptional regulation of MMP appears to represent the key step in MMP regulation. There are diverse types of MMPs that differ structural and functionally. MMP-1 is the most ubiquitously expresse… Show more

“…The MMP1 1G/2G polymorphism (rs1799750) has previously been associated with gene expression [20], but this is the first description of an effect on transcription in alveolar macrophages. There are no previous studies of the rs2274611 CTSL polymorphism, but a CTSL promoter SNP (rs3118869) has been associated with reporter gene expression in vitro [21].…”

“…MMP1, an interstitial collagenase, degrades fibrillar collagens type Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ, Ⅴ, Ⅸ, and Ⅹ, that form the most abundant class of extracellular matrix proteins in the interstitium [86] . The MMP1 gene is located on chro mosome 11q22.…”

“…Genes encoding MMP-1, MMP-3, PAI-2 (SERPIN B2) and cathepsin all play a role in matrix degradation (20)(21)(22)(23). MET-tyrosine kinase and Fli-1 have already been described as Ets-1 target genes in human gastric cancer and in endothelial cells, respectively (24,25).…”
