MMP9 — PGP
Text-mined interactions from Literome
Lin et al., Am J Pathol 2008
(Inflammation...) :
In contrast to wild-type mice, we found that i ) lipopolysaccharide (LPS) injected CXCR2 ( -/- ) corneas had impaired neutrophil infiltration and did not express either MMP-8 or
MMP-9 ; ii ) neutrophil migration through the central cornea was impaired in Mmp8 ( -/- ), but not Mmp9 ( -/- ), mice ; iii ) neutrophil migration was inhibited in collagenase-resistant mice ; iv ) the chemotactic Pro-Gly-Pro (PGP) tripeptide that binds CXCR2 was decreased in CXCR2 ( -/- ) mice ; v )
PGP production was
impaired in Mmp8 ( -/- ) corneas ; and vi ) neutralizing anti-PGP antibody did not inhibit neutrophil infiltration in Mmp8 ( -/- ) mice

(Asthma...) :
PGP generation by COPD sputum was
blocked by inhibitors of
matrix metalloproteases ( MMP 's ) 1 and 9 and prolyl endopeptidase
