Molecular mechanism for activation and regulation of matrix metalloproteinases during bacterial infections and respiratory inflammation

Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are critical mediators of tissue remodeling. Inappropriate regulation of MMPs causes many pathological events, including microbial invasion and inflammatory tissue damage...

Keywords: bacterial proteinase, matrix metalloproteinase (MMP), nitric oxide (NO), nuclear factor ?B (NF-?B), peroxynitrite (ONOO-), reactive nitrogen species (RNS)

Developmental changes in the L-arginine/nitric oxide pathway from infancy to adulthood: plasma asymmetric dimethylarginine levels decrease with age

Background: The L-arginine/nitric oxide (NO) pathway has multiple physiological functions including vasodilation, inhibition of platelet aggregation and neurotransmission...
