MMP-3 activation is a hallmark indicating an early change in TMJ disorders, and is related to nitration
International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 01/15/09
Fujita H et al. - Findings suggest that MMP-3 activation is a hallmark of early degenerative changes in ID. The tylosin nitration by the peroxynitrite can regulate the enzyme activity. To elucidate the activating pathway of MMPs in vivo, nitrated proteins in SF were analysed by immunoprecipitation. Some nitrated proteins in SF were identified as MMP-2 and -3, and the nitration of MMP-3 rendered them active in vitro.
