Matrix metalloproteinases and myocardial infarction

Abstract: A cute myocardial infarction (AMI) is one of the most important health problems in many nations around the world. It may be found in many age groups, but is predominant among elderly people (1). The incidence of AMI has been increasing, possibly due to the changes in lifestyle and dietary intake that lead to an increase in coronary risk factors for cardiovascular disease.AMI has devastating consequences in the early phase, such as cardiac rupture, and in the chronic phase, such as chronic heart failure, for wh… Show more

“…Disruption of this interaction triggers the cleavage of the N-terminus, leading to enzyme activation (Van Wart and Birkedal-Hansen, 1990). There are more than 25 members currently in the MMP family (Phatharajaree et al, 2007). …”

“…Although MMP activity can counterbalance the increased ECM deposition, excessive ECM degradation may result in wall thinning, dilatation, and predispose to heart failure, or aneurysm formation and cardiac rupture. 18,19 MMPs are inhibited by tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases 1-4 18 . MMP imaging has taken advantage of 2 principles: (1) creating tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinase-like peptides that inhibit either a wide range of MMPs or inhibit a specific MMP; these peptides if appropriately labeled may allow assessment of the magnitude of MMP production, or (2) using a substrate amenable to proteolytic cleavage by MMP, the cleaved reporter molecule accumulates in the tissue and can be detected by imaging.…”

“…Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are also upregulated in cardiac diseases, 18 which result in ECM degradation that facilitates adaptive changes (such as removal of cellular debris by inflammatory cells and migration of myofibroblasts) and also contributes to weakening the structure, promoting dilatation and even aneurysm formation. 18,19 Because of its excellent spatial and temporal resolution, MRI has evolved as the gold standard for structural cardiac imaging. Using late-gadolinium enhancement (LGE), MRI can accurately detect fibrosis and quantify ECM volume.…”

“…TIMP-2 potentially inhibits all MMPs but has a higher affinity to MMP-2 than MMP-9. TIMP-3 has been shown to bind to MMP-1, -2, -3, -9, and -13 and TIMP-4 inhibits MMP-1, -3, -7, and -9 [8].…”
