It was also found that MMP2-1306 C/T polymorphism decreased lung cancer risk in Asians, while MMP9-1562 C/T polymorphism decreased lung cancer risk in Caucasians.
MMP-9 gene could promote the generation of lung cancer through P13K/AKT signal pathway, which provides certain theoretical and experimental basis for subsequent diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer.
The subjects carrying the TT genotype had a decreased risk of lung cancer in MMP9-1562C/T comparing with the CC genotype (<i>p</i> = 0.00, OR = 0.45, 95% CI = 0.29⁻0.68), and the MMP13-77 AA genotype was associated with a decreased risk of NSCLC by comparing with the GG genotype (<i>p</i> = 0.03, OR = 0.56, 95% CI = 0.33⁻0.94).
To test our hypothesis that common nonsynonymous SNPs, R279Q, P574R, and R668Q, in MMP-9 are associated with lung cancer development and metastasis, we conducted a case-control study of 744 patients with incident lung cancer and 747 cancer-free controls in Southeast China.
Therefore, this meta-analysis suggests that the MMP1-1607 1G/2G, MMP2-1306 C/T, MMP2-735 C/T, MMP9-1562 C/T polymorphisms were risk factors for lung cancer among Asians, while MMP13 -77A/G polymorphism was not associated with lung cancer risk.
The MMP9 -1562 T/T genotype was associated with a statistically significant decreased risk of developing lung cancer (OR = 0.23; 95% CI: 0.06-0.85), whereas no association was found for the MMP2 -735 C/T and MMP3 -1171 5A/6A polymorphisms.
The results showed that under dominant genetic model, MMP2 -1306 T was associated with lower susceptibility to lung cancer [odds ratio (OR) = 0.50, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.43-0.59, P(heterogeneity) = 0.147, I(2) = 44.1%], head and neck cancer (OR = 0.53, 95% CI 0.41-0.69, P(heterogeneity) = 0.974, I(2) = 0.0%) and oesophageal cancer (OR = 0.67, 95% CI 0.55-0.80, P(heterogeneity) = 0.593, I(2) = 0.0%); MMP2-735T was associated with lower risk in lung cancer (OR = 0.65, 95%CI 0.53-0.79, P(heterogeneity) = 0.42, I(2) = 0.0%) and oesophageal cancer (OR = 0.84, 95% CI 0.70-0.99, P(heterogeneity) = 0.206, I(2) = 37.4%); MMP7 -181 AG and GG genotype carriers had an increased gastric cancer risk (OR = 1.90, 95% CI 1.43-2.51, P(heterogeneity) = 0.992, I(2) = 0.0%) and MMP9 -1562 C>T was not associated with cancer risk in the whole group analysis (OR = 0.99, 95% CI 0.91-1.08, P(heterogeneity) = 0.419, I(2) = 3.0%) and subgroup analyses.
Naringenin inhibits the migration of bladder and lung cancer via modulation of MMP-2 and/or MMP-9 activities, Naringenin inhibits migration and trigger apoptosis in gastric cancer cells through downregulation of AKT pathway.
The degree of correlation between a SIBLING and its partner MMP was found to be significant within a given cancer type (e.g., BSP and MMP-2 in colon cancer, OPN and MMP-3 in ovarian cancer; DMP1 and MMP-9 in lung cancer).
Comparison of the effects of sevoflurane and propofol anesthesia on pulmonary function, MMP-9 and postoperative cognition in patients receiving lung cancer resection.
The present study indicated that FZKA may inhibit lung cancer metastasis via the STAT3/MMP9 pathway and EMT, suggesting that FZKA may serve as a novel promising therapeutic strategy for the treatment of patients with late stage lung cancer.
Collectively, this study highlights the importance of the S100A4/NF-κB/MMP9 axis in lung cancer invasion and provides a rationale for targeting S100A4 to combat lung cancer.
Among them, MMP9 and TWIST1 were identified as more valuable biological targets for the early diagnosis and targeted therapy of lung cancer through Kaplan-Meier analysis of TCGA lung adenocarcinoma datasets.
In conclusion, we report that the shRNA-mediated knockdown of RhoGDI2 induces the invasion and migration of lung cancer due to cross-talk with the PI3K/Akt pathway and MMP-9.
The complementary DNA was generated and analyzed by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction for potential lung cancer associated genes like matrix metalloprotinase (MMP9).
CONCLUSIONS The putative mechanism behind the metastasis-limiting effects of DHC may involve the suppression of Akt/GSK-3β and inhibition of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in lung cancer cells.
Earlier it was reported that I-BOP-initiated activation of thromboxane A2 receptor (TP) induced the release of MMP-1, MMP-3, and MMP-9 from lung cancer A549 cells overexpressing TPα (A549-TPα).
The present study intended to investigate efficacy of radiotherapy in the treatment of intermediate and advanced stage lung cancer and the effects on serum vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9).
