Smigiel Women’s Guild Lung Institute, Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Los Angeles, CA, United States Helen Williams School of Clinical Sciences, University of Bristol, Bristol, United Kingdom PREFACE Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a family of structurally related zinc- containing proteolytic enzymes that degrade various components of the extracellular matrix and connective tissue proteins. The MMP family includes collagenases, gelatinases, stromelysins, matrilysins and membrane- type MMPs, and other MMPs. MMPs are important regulators of tissue remodeling, cell migration, and adhesion molecules. In addition to their proteolytic effects on the extracellular matrix, recent studies suggest novel effects of MMPs on transmembrane and intracellular signaling in many cell types including the vascular endothelium and smooth muscle. MMPs are tightly regulated at the transcription level and can be activated by other MMPs or proteases into their proteolytic active forms that interact with var- ious substrates and signaling pathways. MMP activity is also regulated by endogenous tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs), which provide a balancing mechanism to prevent excessive degradation of the extracellular matrix. MMP/TIMP imbalance could lead to pathological conditions and major cardiovascular, metabolic, and musculoskeletal disorders as well as cancer. Modulation of MMP activity using genetic manipulations of endog- enous TIMPs or synthetic pharmacological inhibitors could control MMP activity and may provide new approaches in the management of MMP- related diseases. This volume of Progress in Molecular Biology and Translational Science pro- vides insights into MMPs and Tissue Remodeling in Health and Disease. Because MMPs play a role in a large number of biological processes and could be involved in numerous pathological conditions, we divided this volume into two parts. Part I focuses on Cardiovascular Remodeling, and Part II covers the role of MMPs in other target tissues and diseases and the potential benefits of MMP inhibitors. Renown scientists and researchers have agreed to share their expertise and advanced knowledge on MMPs. In Part I on the role of MMPs on Cardiovascular Remodeling we will cover several important topics regarding the basic biochemical and biological properties of MMPs; the role of MMPs in myocardial infarction and heart failure; the MMP/TIMP balance and microvascular endothelial function and dysfunction; MMPs in blood platelets and leukocyte activation; the role of MMPs in atherosclerosis, aneurysm, and hepatic ischemia/reperfusion injury; and the role of MMPs in remodeling of lower extremity veins and xi xii Preface chronic venous disease. These important reviews were written by research investigators and clinician–scientists from different parts of the world, thus promoting different viewpoints in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disease and highlighting different approaches in the diagnosis and management of car- diovascular disorders. Thanks to the good work of the contributing authors, and the careful review of our dedicated Reviewers and Editors, we were able to put together these important topics, and present them to our readers in a clear, concise, and informative fashion. I encourage every researcher, clini- cian, medical, graduate, and undergraduate student with aspiration to work in the cardiovascular field to read this state-of-the-art synopsis on MMPs. I would like to dedicate this volume to the late Dr. P. Michael Conn, the past Series Editor of Progress in Molecular Biology and Translational Science. Dr. Conn gave me the great opportunity to be the Editor of this special and timely volume, and for this I will always be very grateful. I also would like to thank our outstanding Senior Editorial Project Manager Mrs. Helene Kabes and our hardworking Editorial Staff who spared no effort to ensure the highest quality of the articles. I also would like to acknowledge our contrib- uting authors not only for their excellent articles but also for sharing some of the reviewers’ duties, and for being very generous with their time and effort in providing other authors with helpful comments and constructive criticism. I particularly wish to thank our readers for their interest in MMPs and cardiovascular remodeling. I encourage all of you to provide feedback and contact

  • Collagenase Clostridium Histolyticum in the Treatment of Peyronie's Disease
    pISSN: 2287-4208 / eISSN: 2287-4690 World J Mens Health Published online September 6, 2017 https://doi.org/10.5534/wjmh.17033 Review Article Collagenase Clostridium Histolyticum in the Treatment of Peyronie’s Disease: Review of a Minimally Invasive Treatment Option Andrew T Gabrielson, Laith M Alzweri, Wayne JG Hellstrom Department of Urology, Tulane University School of Medicine, New Orleans, LA, USA Peyronie’s disease (PD) is an inflammatory disorder characterized by an abnormal collagen deposition in the tunica albuginea of the penis, leading to fibrous and non-compliant plaques that can impede normal erection. Although pharmacological treatments are available, only intralesional injection therapy and surgical reconstruction have demonstrated tangible clinical efficacy in the management of this condition. Intralesional injection of collagenase clostridium histolyticum (CCH) has come to the forefront of minimally invasive treatment of PD. In this review, the authors provide an update on the safety, efficacy, and indications for CCH. The efficacy of CCH will be assessed on the basis of improvement in the severity of penile fibrosis, curvature, and pain. Numerous well-designed clinical trials and post-approval studies involving more than 1,500 patients have consistently demonstrated the efficacy and tolerability of CCH in the treatment of PD. CCH significantly decreases penile curvature and plaque consistency, as well as improves quality of life. Post-approval studies continue to demonstrate the efficacy of CCH despite broader inclusion criteria for treatment, such as the case with acute phase disease and atypical plaque deformities (i.e., ventral plaques, hourglass narrowing). CCH continues to be the gold standard for non-surgical management of stable phase PD, in the absence of strong evidence supporting oral therapy agents and ongoing evaluation of extracorporeal shockwave therapy.

  • Optimization of Enzyme Dissociation Process Based On
    OPTIMIZATION OF ENZYME DISSOCIATION PROCESS BASED ON REACTION DIFFUSION MODEL TO PREDICT TIME OF TISSUE DIGESTION DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Bhavya Mehta, B.E. ***** The Ohio State University 2006 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Jeffrey J. Chalmers Approved By Dr. David L. Tomasko Dr. Deborah M. Grzybowski ------------------------------------------------------ Adviser Chemical Engineering Graduate Program ABSTRACT With the advent and improvement of highly sensitive and accurate molecular analysis technologies, it is possible to study increasingly complex cellular processes. These technologies have played a significant role in cancer diagnosis. However, a common complaint of studies using these technologies is the heterogeneity of the original sample. The lack of homogeneity is a challenge when one works with non-cultured, three-dimensional tissue, which normally consists of a variety of different cell types, in different states. Therefore, the ability to analyze and separate a heterogeneous cell population based on cellular characteristics is a significant analytical and preparative resource for molecular analysis techniques. The sample preparation techniques in case of a tissue sample are rudimentary and opportunities are ample. The cellular components of a tissue sample are bonded tightly together by extracellular material (ECM). The main components of ECM are proteins (collagen and elastin), which are broken down using enzymes such as collagenase, elastase, metalloproteinases etc. The enzyme dissociation process is an integral part of life sciences laboratory and is designed predominantly based on empirical experience of each research group. There is little or no fundamental understanding available about the enzyme dissociation process to produce single cell suspension from a tissue.

  • Structural, Functional and Therapeutic Aspects of Snake Venom Metal- Loproteinases
    Send Orders for Reprints to [email protected] 28 Mini-Reviews in Organic Chemistry, 2014, 11, 28-44 Structural, Functional and Therapeutic Aspects of Snake Venom Metal- loproteinases P. Chellapandi* Department of Bioinformatics, School of Life Sciences, Bharathidasan University, Tiruchirappalli-620024, Tamil Nadu, India Abstract: Snake venoms are rich sources of metalloproteinases that are of biological interest due to their diverse molecu- lar diversity and selective therapeutic applications. Snake venoms metalloproteinases (SVMPs) belong to the MEROPS peptidase family M12B or reprolysin subfamily, which are consisted of four major domains include a reprolysin catalytic domain, a disintegrin domain, a reprolysin family propeptide domain and a cysteine-rich domain. The appropriate struc- tural and massive sequences information have been available for SVMPs family of enzymes in the Protein Data Bank and National Center for Biotechnology Information, respectively. Functional essentiality of every domain and a crucial contri- bution of binding geometry, primary specificity site, and structural motifs have been studied in details, pointing the way for designing potential anti-coagulation, antitumor, anti-complementary and anti-inflammatory drugs or peptides. These enzymes have been reported to degrade fibrinogen, fibrin and collagens, and to prevent progression of clot formation. An- giotensin-converting enzyme activity, antibacterial properties, haemorrhagic activity and platelet aggregation response of SVMPs have been studied earlier. Structural information of these enzymes together with recombinant DNA technology would strongly promote the construction of many recombinant therapeutic peptides, particularly fibrinogenases and vac- cines. We have comprehensively reviewed the structure-function-evolution relationships of SVMPs family proteins and their advances in the promising target models for structure-based inhibitors and peptides design.

  • Recombinant Expression and Functional Analysis of Proteases from Streptococcus Pneumoniae, Bacillus Anthracis, and Yersinia Pestis
    Kwon et al. BMC Biochemistry 2011, 12:17 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2091/12/17 RESEARCHARTICLE Open Access Recombinant expression and functional analysis of proteases from Streptococcus pneumoniae, Bacillus anthracis, and Yersinia pestis Keehwan Kwon, Jeremy Hasseman, Saeeda Latham, Carissa Grose, Yu Do, Robert D Fleischmann, Rembert Pieper and Scott N Peterson* Abstract Background: Uncharacterized proteases naturally expressed by bacterial pathogens represents important topic in infectious disease research, because these enzymes may have critical roles in pathogenicity and cell physiology. It has been observed that cloning, expression and purification of proteases often fail due to their catalytic functions which, in turn, cause toxicity in the E. coli heterologous host. Results: In order to address this problem systematically, a modified pipeline of our high-throughput protein expression and purification platform was developed. This included the use of a specific E. coli strain, BL21(DE3) pLysS to tightly control the expression of recombinant proteins and various expression vectors encoding fusion proteins to enhance recombinant protein solubility. Proteases fused to large fusion protein domains, maltosebinding protein (MBP), SP-MBP which contains signal peptide at the N-terminus of MBP, disulfide oxidoreductase (DsbA) and Glutathione S-transferase (GST) improved expression and solubility of proteases. Overall, 86.1% of selected protease genes including hypothetical proteins were expressed and purified using a combination of five different expression vectors. To detect novel proteolytic activities, zymography and fluorescence-based assays were performed and the protease activities of more than 46% of purified proteases and 40% of hypothetical proteins that were predicted to be proteases were confirmed. Conclusions: Multiple expression vectors, employing distinct fusion tags in a high throughput pipeline increased overall success rates in expression, solubility and purification of proteases.
