Article Abstract
Chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) is a common neurological disease that involves the collection of blood products in the subdural space. The progression of CSDH is an angiogenic and inflammatory process, but the multifactorial mechanisms underlying CSDH are still not fully understood. We aimed to identify one or more factors that may play an important role in the development of CSDH. We enrolled 83 patients with CSDH, including 17 postoperative patients, and analyzed 20 markers in the hematoma fluid and peripheral blood of each patient. Overall differential gene expression was examined to identify the representative markers. The concentration of MMP-8 was significantly lower in the postoperative group than in the preoperative group. The concentration of MMP-9 was significantly higher in the postoperative group than in the preoperative group. These findings indicate that MMP-8 and MMP-9 may play important roles in the pathophysiology of CSDH. Understanding the pathways associated with CSDH may provide insights for improving disease outcomes.

Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate changes in the expression of members of the matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) family in response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation and to investigate the regulatory effects of BMP9 on MMPs.
Design: The extracted human stem cells from the apical papilla (hSCAPs) were identified by flow cytometry, Alizarin Red staining, Oil Red O staining, and alkaline phosphatase staining. The appropriate LPS concentration for inducing inflammation in hSCAPs was determined using real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) and Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assays.

Our study examined how different titanium alloy Ti6Al4V (Ti64) and zirconia (ZrO) surfaces, ranging from rough to very smooth, affect the expression of elastase (NE), matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-8, MMP-9, and extracellular traps (NETs) by neutrophils. Discs of Ti64 and ZrO, 10 mm in diameter and 1.5 mm thick, were created using diamond-impregnated polishing burs and paste to produce rough (Ra > 3 µm), smooth (Ra ≥ 1 to 1.

Introduction: Vasospasm has been reported as the most important cause of mortality and morbidity in patients with subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) who can reach the hospital. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a gene family, which are called neutral proteases in the central nervous system (CNS). In this experimental study we studied the upregulation of MMPs (MMP-8, MMP-9, and MMP-13) gene expression and the inhibitor effects of doxycycline after experimental SAH model in rats.

Diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) are a complication of diabetes that have long been neglected. To date, a single drug (becaplermin containing platelet-derived growth factor, PDGF) has been approved by the FDA 27 years ago; however, it is seldom used because of its modest efficacy. The standard-of-care for DFUs is debridement, off-loading, and infection control with antibiotics, with hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy being the treatment of last recourse.

Objective: The aim of this cross-sectional study was to investigate the relationship between periodontitis, potential periodontitis oral fluid biomarkers, and prediabetes.
Materials And Methods: This study included 150 Greek adults aged 25 to 78 years who were tested with an Hemoglobin A1C (HBA1c) diagnostic system, an active-matrix metalloproteinase-8 (aMMP-8) point-of-care (PoC) test, and several salivary biomarkers enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay tests and gelatin zymography. A full-mouth clinical examination was performed to assess their periodontal and oral health status.
