Interleukin-4 suppresses TIMP-2 transcription during endometriosis: Allele-specific regulation of the TIMP-2 −418G/C promoter by SP1
·doi:10.64898/2026.10.15.759364

Abstract Tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-2 (TIMP-2) is a critical regulator of extracellular matrix (ECM) homeostasis in inflammatory disorder, but the mechanisms underlying its dysregulation in endometriosis remain poorly understood.…

Suppression of endometriosis by miRNA-34a via inhibition of matrix metalloproteinase-2: An alternative pathway to impede invasion
Non-coding RNA research ·doi:10.1016/j.ncrna.2025.02.001

Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) cleave proteins of extracellular matrix thus facilitating cellular invasion and cancer progression. High MMP-2 activity is frequently reported in several diseases including endometriosis and cancer. Endometr…

Zymography and Reverse Zymography for Testing Proteases and Their Inhibitors
Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.) ·doi:10.1007/978-1-0716-1896-7_12

Zymography is a powerful technique for the assay of different hydrolases that act upon any biological macromolecule. In particular, zymography is used to assay the activities of serine proteases, e.g., matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), and …
