| 1. | Gelatinase B may play an important role in angiogenesis and neovascularization.
|
| 2. | This enzyme is similar to gelatinase A, but possesses a further domain.
|
| 3. | Caseinolytic and gelatinase activities are normally present.
|
| 4. | Slough, southeast England-based Celltech has patented a number of inhibitors of human gelatinase.
|
| 5. | Effects of Enterococcus faecalis fsr genes on production of gelatinase and a serine protease and virulence.
|
| 6. | For example, gelatinase B appears to be involved in the remodeling associated with malignant glioma neovascularization.
|
| 7. | When interacting with TGF-?, Gelatinase B also stimulates collagen contraction, aiding in wound closure.
