Pancreatic fibrosis is a key pathological feature in the etiology of chronic pancreatitis that leads to obliteration of exocrine
and endocrine pancreatic tissues and its replacement by fibrous tissue resulting in clinical manifestations. Matrix metalloproteinase
9 is a member of the MMP family that is also known as gelatinase B, degrades type IV collagen of extracellular matrix and
basal membrane. The present study is aimed at evaluating the clinical significance of plasma concentration of MMP-9 in chronic
pancreatitis. The samples were obtained from 112 chronic pancreatitis patients and an equal number of age and sex matched
healthy controls. MMP-9 levels were quantitatively measured by ELISA assay. Statistical analysis was applied to test the significance
of results. The present study revealed a significant increase of plasma MMP 9 levels in chronic pancreatitis patients compared
to control subjects. Elevated levels were also observed in all the patient groups compared to control subjects with regard
to sex, age, addictions etc. MMP-9 degrades the type IV collagens in normal basement membrane, which in turn activates the
pancreatic stellate cells which promote the development of pancreatitic fibrosis. Thus, elevated plasma levels of MMP-9 may
act as a susceptibility factor for the development of chronic pancreatitis. 相似文献

Matrix metalloproteinase-9 (gelatinase B) plays a key role in cancer invasion and metastasis by degrading the extracellular matrix and basement membrane barriers. A cytosine (C) > thymidine (T) single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) at position −1562 in the MMP-9 promoter is reported to influence the expression of the gene. Genotyping of MMP-9 −1562 C→T promoter polymorphism in 140 gastric cancer patients and 132 healthy control subjects was carried out in order to evaluate its association with progression and development of gastric cancer. The SNP was genotyped by tetra-primer amplification refractory mutation system-polymerase chain reaction followed by agarose gel electrophoresis. Statistical methods were adopted to test for the significance of the results. Risk factor profile of the patients revealed age above 50 years, smoking, alcoholism as the factors associated with the disease. The distribution of genotype frequencies in gastric cancer patients were 28.7 % of CC, 45.5 % of CT and 25.7 % of TT, whereas in control subjects 31.8 % of CC, 53.03 % of CT and 15.15 % of TT, respectively. The allelic frequencies were 51.51 % of C and 48.48 % of T in patient group and 58.33 % of C and 41.66 % of T in controls respectively. The present study shows the possible association of epidemiological risk factors with gastric cancer. There is an increased frequency of T allele in the disease compared to control subjects. However, there is no association of the MMP-9 −1562 C→T promoter polymorphism in the development of gastric cancer. 相似文献

The International Society for Performance Improvement human performance technology model was applied in four supermarkets of a well‐known retail firm in India. An organizational environment model was used for a cause analysis. The fishbone (i.e., cause‐and‐effect) diagram was used to express the basis of poor sales performance. Both customers and employees were dissatisfied with the stores. It was determined that poor inventory management, long approval periods, and frequent employee turnover were the reasons for poor sales performance in the supermarkets. 相似文献
