Meanings of decreased mmp in English

Conclusions and implications: Doxycycline decreased MMP levels and cell metabolic activity, which raises the possibility of therapeutic efficacy in LAM.

Because fewer d(CA) repeats associated with decreased MMP-9 expression in MC, it might be a genetic marker for glomerulosclerosis.

The results showed clear and physiologically relevant differences with disease, in particular, decreased MMP-2 and ADAM-9 activities.

With decreases in substrate stiffness, we observe decreased MMP expression while increased cellular elongation, with intracellular vacuole extension and coalescence to open lumen compartments.

Moreover, inhibiting Dyrk1A expression apparently prevented the migration and invasion capability of FLSs accompanied by a decreased MMP-3 and -9 expression.

In contrast, ppFurin expression in these cells decreased MMP-9 activity and diminished these biological functions, but had no significant effect on TIMP-1 secretion.
