1 Ursolic acid-induced down-regulation of MMP-9 gene is mediated through the nuclear translocation of glucocorticoid receptor in HT1080 human fibrosarcoma cells. ursolic acid matrix metallopeptidase 9 Homo sapiens
2 We have previously reported that ursolic acid, a pentacyclic triterpene acid, inhibited the invasion of HT1080 human fibrosarcoma cells by reducing the expression of matrix metalloproteinase-9. ursolic acid matrix metallopeptidase 9 Homo sapiens
3 Similarly, ursolic acid down-regulated 2-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-acetate-induction of matrix metalloproteinase-9 gene in the same manner of dexamethasone. ursolic acid matrix metallopeptidase 9 Homo sapiens
4 RU486, a potent glucocorticoid receptor antagonist, was used for identifying that ursolic acid-induced down-regulation of matrix metalloproteinase-9 expression is mediated by its binding to glucocorticoid receptor. ursolic acid matrix metallopeptidase 9 Homo sapiens
5 The effect of ursolic acid on the matrix metalloproteinase-9 expression was blocked by RU486, suggesting that ursolic acid acts via a glucocorticoid receptor in the regulation of matrix metalloproteinase-9. ursolic acid matrix metallopeptidase 9 Homo sapiens
6 The effect of ursolic acid on the matrix metalloproteinase-9 expression was blocked by RU486, suggesting that ursolic acid acts via a glucocorticoid receptor in the regulation of matrix metalloproteinase-9. ursolic acid matrix metallopeptidase 9 Homo sapiens
7 The effect of ursolic acid on the matrix metalloproteinase-9 expression was blocked by RU486, suggesting that ursolic acid acts via a glucocorticoid receptor in the regulation of matrix metalloproteinase-9. ursolic acid matrix metallopeptidase 9 Homo sapiens
8 The effect of ursolic acid on the matrix metalloproteinase-9 expression was blocked by RU486, suggesting that ursolic acid acts via a glucocorticoid receptor in the regulation of matrix metalloproteinase-9. ursolic acid matrix metallopeptidase 9 Homo sapiens
9 Taken together, we suggest that ursolic acid may induce the repression of matrix metalloproteinase-9 by stimulating the nuclear translocation of glucocorticoid receptor, and the translocated glucocorticoid receptor probably down-modulating the trans-activating function of AP-1 to 2-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-acetate responsible element of matrix metalloproteinase-9 promoter region. ursolic acid matrix metallopeptidase 9 Homo sapiens
10 Taken together, we suggest that ursolic acid may induce the repression of matrix metalloproteinase-9 by stimulating the nuclear translocation of glucocorticoid receptor, and the translocated glucocorticoid receptor probably down-modulating the trans-activating function of AP-1 to 2-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-acetate responsible element of matrix metalloproteinase-9 promoter region. ursolic acid matrix metallopeptidase 9 Homo sapiens
