  2. 1. Matrix metalloproteinases in Helicobacter inducedgastritis

    Author : Philip Bergin; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : Helicobacter pylori; Helicobacter felis; Matrix metalloproteinase; macrophage; ; Gastritis;

    Abstract : Helicobacter pylori infects the stomach and areas of gastric metaplasia in the duodenum.

  7. 5. Matrix metalloproteinases and their inhibitors in ocular neovascularization

    Author : Björn Steén; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Angiogenesis; Neovascularization; Retina; Bruch membrane; Cornea; MMP; TIMP; VEGF; In situ hybridization.;

    Abstract : Growth of pathological new vessels (angiogenesis) in the eye is a leading cause of severe vision-loss. Ocular angiogenesis is seen in the anterior part of the eye as in corneal neovascularization, or in the posterior part as in diabetic retinopathy, retinopathy of prematurity or age-related macular degeneration.
