Identification of hepsin and protein disulfide isomerase A3 as targets of gelatinolytic action in rat ovarian granulosa cells during the periovulatory period
Biology of reproduction ·doi:10.1095/biolreprod.111.092072

The matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) family is believed to play a role in the ovulatory process because MMP inhibitors block oocyte release. However, little is known about the mechanisms by which the MMPs affect ovulation. The present study i…

Human Ovarian Expression and Localization of Tissue Inhibitor of Metalloproteinase 3 (TIMP3) During the Periovulatory Period.
·doi:10.1093/biolreprod/83.s1.643

Alterations in the interaction between the follicle and the matrix must occur before follicular rupture and ovulation can take place. Such interactions are controlled in part by the delicate balance between the matrix metalloproteinases (MM…

REGULATION OF EXPRESSION OF Timp1 AND Timp3 mRNA IN RAT GRANULOSA CELLS DURING THE PERIOVULATORY PERIOD
·doi:10.1093/biolreprod/77.s1.179a

In the ovary, the matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and the tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) have been postulated to play a critical role in extracellular matrix remodeling associated with ovulation as well as luteal formation…
