Matrix metalloproteinase-2 is known to be involved in pathological processes such as tumor invasion or rheumatoid arthritis. A soil microorganism producing siderophore under low iron stress $(up\;to\;5\;{\mu}m\;of\;iron)$ was identified as Burkholderia sp. Hydroxamate type siderophore produced by Burkholderia sp. CAS-5 was partially purified. MMP inhibitory activity of siderophore was confirmed by gelatin zymography. The $Zn^{2+}-chelating$ activity of siderophore correlated with the inhibition of MMP-2 activity.

Marine ecosystems are often characterized by a high biological diversity, and it corresponds to a high chemical diversity. Up to present, more than 20,000 new bioactive substances have been isolated from marine organisms, where considerable numbers of these naturally occurring derivatives are developed as potential candidates for pharmaceutical application. In this process, screening of natural products from marine organisms that could potentially inhibit the expression of metalloproteinases has gained a huge popularity. Cancer is considered as one of the deadliest diseases in the medical field. Matrix metalloproteinase (MMPs) can degrade extracellular matrix (ECM) components and play important roles in a variety of biological and pathological processes. Matrix metalloproteinase inhibitors (MMPIs) have been identified as potential therapeutic candidates for metastasis, arthritis, chronic inflammation and wrinkle formation.

Background: The relationship between the degree of expression of matrix metalloproteinases or tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases and venous reflux remains to be investigated. Materials and Methods: Primary varicose vein tissues were obtained from 23 patients, 18 females and 5 males, aged from 19 to 73. Cephalic or basilic veins were obtained for the control group from 10 patients who underwent vascular access for maintenance hemodialysis. Two operative techniques (high ligation with stripping or endovenous laser coagulation) were used. The expression of matrix metalloproteinase-2 and 13 and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-4 in the varicose vein group and control group was assessed semi-quantitatively by immunohistochemical slides stained with primary antibodies. Results: Twenty (87%) of the varicose vein group patients had greater or lesser saphenous vein diseases with reflux. The focal weak (+) stain for matrix metalloproteinases-2, and 13, and tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinase-4 was dominant in the varicose vein group; the focal or diffuse strong stain (++ or +++) was prevalent in the control group. The differences were statistically significant (p<0.01). The degree of reflux and the duration of symptoms were not significantly related to the expression of MMP-13 (p=0.317 and p=0.654, respectively). Conclusion: Further study should be performed to investigate the relationship between the clinical characteristics related to venous hypertension or reflux and expression of MMPs and TIMP in varicose veins.

자외선은 피부 광노화의 주요 요인이며, 효과적인 자외선 차단제가 피부의 건강과 아름다움을 위해 필요하다. 본 연구는 세포 실험을 통하여 자외선에 의해 유도된 세포 사멸, 산화적 스트레스, matrix metalloproteinase 1 발현에 미치는 죽여추출물의 영향을 알아보고자 수행하였다. HaCaT 인간 각질세포를 여러 농도의 죽여추출물 유무 조건에서 자외선을 조사하고 세포의 생존율과 생화학적 과정들의 변화를 분석하였다. 죽여추출물은 자외선을 조사한 세포의 생존율을 증진시켰고, procaspase 3가 활성화 형태로 절단되고, Bax/Bcl-2 비율이 증가하는 세포 자살 과정을 완화시켰다. 죽여추출물은 자외선에 노출된 세포에서 활성산소의 발생과 지질 과산화도 감소시켰다. 또한 죽여추출물은 자외선에 의해 자극된 matrix metalloproteinase 1의 발현과 c-Jun N-terminal kinase의 인산화를 억제하였다. 본 연구는 죽여추출물이 자외선에 의한 세포 사멸, 산화적 스트레스, 그리고 matrix metalloproteinase 1 발현을 억제함을 보여 주었으며, 이 추출물이 피부 광노화의 일부 현상을 억제하는 화장품 원료로 유용함을 시사하였다.

Curcumin has been known for its anti-proliferative and apoptotic effects on several cancer cells. We examined the inhibitory effects of curcumin on cancer cell adhesion, motility, invasion and matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) activity in MDA-MB-231 human breast cancer cells. MDA-MB-231 cells were cultured with 0, 5, 10 or $20{\mu}M$ of curcumin. Curcumin significantly inhibited the adhesion of cancer cells to the fibronectin at $20{\mu}M$ and suppressed the motility and invasion of cancer cells at all concentrations. Also, the MMP-9 activity was inhibited by curcumin, but MMP-9 protein amounts were not affected. Our data indicate that curcumin inhibits motility, invasion and MMP-9 activity of MDA-MB-231 cells. Therefore, curcumin may contribute to the potential beneficial food component to prevent the cancer metastasis in human breast cancer.

The inhibitory effects of methanol extracts of 165 medicinal herbs on matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) activity were investigated. Amongst the herbal extracts, Youngia denticulate, Platycarya strobilacea, Sedum kamtschaticum, Euscaphis japonica, and Comus controversa showed a significant inhibitory effect with above 80% at $1\;{\mu}g/ml$. Above mentioned five kind extracts, which exclude polyphenols and/or tannin by techniques for their removal, showed a mild inhibitory effect on MMP-2 activity except for Y. denticulate at the same concentration.

Tumor cell invasion and metastasis are a complex multistep process that involves the degradation of extracellular matrix proteins by matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). Tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1) acts as a negative regulator of matrix metalloproteinase and thus prevents tumor cell invasion and metastasis by preserving extracellular matrix integrity.(omitted)

In chronic airway inflammatory diseases such as asthma and chronic bronchitis, it has been suggested that matrix metalloproteinases secreted from infiltrating neutrophil contribute the pathogenesis of the disease and have been a focus of intense investigation. We report here that hamster tracheal surface epithelial goblet cells (HTSE cells) produce matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-2 (TIMP-2). Matrix metalloproteinase activities were investigated using [$^3H$]collagen-digestion assay and gelatin zymography. The subtype of matrix metalloproteinases expressed from HTSE cells was MMP-2 (gelatinase A), which was determined by Western blot with various subtype selective anti-matrix metalloproteinase antibodies. The MMP-2 and TIMP-2 cDNAs from HTSE cells were partially cloned by RT-PCR and they reveal more than 90% of sequence homology with those from human, rat and mouse. The collagenolytic activity was increased with the secretory differentiation of the HTSE cell and it was found that zymogen activation was responsible for the increased MMP-2 activity in HTSE cells. The results from the present study suggest that the metaplastic secretory differentiation of airway goblet cells may affect chronic airway inflammatory process by augmenting the zymogen activation of MMP-2.

천연 식물 추출물로 처리한 matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)의 저해능 실험에서 귀전우 (Euonymus alatus)의 methanol 가용성 분획이 matrix metalloproteinase (MMP-9) 활성에 저해능이 있는 것으로 나타났다. Silica gel column에서 ethyl acetate와 hexane의 혼합비를 달리하는 방법으로 다섯 개의 부분으로 분획하였고 그 중에서 세 개의 분획이 MMP-9 활성에 저해능이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 인체 간암 세포인 Hep3B 세포주와 인체 정상 세포인 Chang 세포주를 같은 조건으로 키운 후 형태학적 변화를 관찰한 결과, 귀전우의 메탄올 추출물로 처리한 세포에서만 핵의 주위에 검은 반점이 넓게 분포되어 있는 것이 관찰되었다. 인체 정상 세포주에 대한 독성 확인 실험에서 대부분의 메탄올 가용성 분획은 독성을 나타내지 않는 것으로 나타났다.

The present work was undertaken to evaluate the antimetastatic potential of capsaicin (8­methyl-N-vanillyl-6-nonenamide) by measuring its effects on matrix metalloproteinase activity, cell invasion and lung metastasis. Significant inhibition of matrix metalloproteinase-2 activity by capsaicin (100 $\mu$M) was detected by gelatin zymography. In vitro invasion assay showed capsaicin (50, 100 $\mu$M) reduced tumor cell invasion ($28-40\%$). Capsaicin (i.p., 2.5 mg/kg) inhibited development of lung colonization ($58\%$). These results suggest that capsaicin prevents metastasis in part through suppression of invasion of B16F10 melanoma cells by inhibiting matrix metalloproteinase-2 responsible for degradation of extracellular matrix.
