Glutathione 21-32 matrix metallopeptidase 2 Rattus norvegicus 80-84 10508828-5 1999 Ethanol ingestion increased (p < 0.05) MMP-9 and MMP-2 activity, as determined by zymography, in the lung tissue and lavage fluid compared with control-fed rats, and increased (p < 0.05) levels of the 7S fragment of type IV collagen in the lung lavage fluid. Ethanol 0-7 matrix metallopeptidase 9 Rattus norvegicus 42-47 10508828-5 1999 Ethanol ingestion increased (p < 0.05) MMP-9 and MMP-2 activity, as determined by zymography, in the lung tissue and lavage fluid compared with control-fed rats, and increased (p < 0.05) levels of the 7S fragment of type IV collagen in the lung lavage fluid. Ethanol 0-7 matrix metallopeptidase 2 Rattus norvegicus 52-57 10508828-6 1999 Ethanol ingestion increased activation, but not production, of the MMP-9 and MMP-2 zymogens. Ethanol 0-7 matrix metallopeptidase 9 Rattus norvegicus 67-72 10508828-6 1999 Ethanol ingestion increased activation, but not production, of the MMP-9 and MMP-2 zymogens. Ethanol 0-7 matrix metallopeptidase 2 Rattus norvegicus 77-82 10508828-7 1999 Finally, although concomitant ingestion of N-acetylcysteine had no effect (p > 0.05) on MMP production, it increased (p > 0.05) lung glutathione levels, blocked (p < 0.05) MMP-9 and MMP-2 activation, and decreased (p < 0.05) levels of the 7S fragment of type IV collagen. Acetylcysteine 43-59 matrix metallopeptidase 9 Rattus norvegicus 181-186 10508828-7 1999 Finally, although concomitant ingestion of N-acetylcysteine had no effect (p > 0.05) on MMP production, it increased (p > 0.05) lung glutathione levels, blocked (p < 0.05) MMP-9 and MMP-2 activation, and decreased (p < 0.05) levels of the 7S fragment of type IV collagen. Acetylcysteine 43-59 matrix metallopeptidase 2 Rattus norvegicus 191-196 10508828-8 1999 We conclude that chronic ethanol ingestion, via glutathione depletion, activates MMPs during sepsis, thereby increasing degradation of the alveolar epithelial ECM. Ethanol 25-32 matrix metallopeptidase 2 Rattus norvegicus 81-85 10508828-8 1999 We conclude that chronic ethanol ingestion, via glutathione depletion, activates MMPs during sepsis, thereby increasing degradation of the alveolar epithelial ECM.
