Sampaio LA, Pina LTS, Serafini MR, Tavares DDS, Guimarães AG. Antitumor Effects of Carvacrol and Thymol: A Systematic Review. Front Pharmacol 2021; 12:702487. [PMID: 34305611 PMCID: PMC8293693 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2021.702487] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/29/2021] [Accepted: 06/22/2021] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: It is estimated that one in five people worldwide faces a diagnosis of a malignant neoplasm during their lifetime. Carvacrol and its isomer, thymol, are natural compounds that act against several diseases, including cancer. Thus, this systematic review aimed to examine and synthesize the knowledge on the antitumor effects of carvacrol and thymol. Methods: A systematic literature search was carried out in the PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus and Lilacs databases in April 2020 (updated in March 2021) based on the PRISMA 2020 guidelines. The following combination of health descriptors, MeSH terms and their synonyms were used: carvacrol, thymol, antitumor, antineoplastic, anticancer, cytotoxicity, apoptosis, cell proliferation, in vitro and in vivo. To assess the risk of bias in in vivo studies, the SYRCLE Risk of Bias tool was used, and for in vitro studies, a modified version was used. Results: A total of 1,170 records were identified, with 77 meeting the established criteria. The studies were published between 2003 and 2021, with 69 being in vitro and 10 in vivo. Forty-three used carvacrol, 19 thymol, and 15 studies tested both monoterpenes. It was attested that carvacrol and thymol induced apoptosis, cytotoxicity, cell cycle arrest, antimetastatic activity, and also displayed different antiproliferative effects and inhibition of signaling pathways (MAPKs and PI3K/AKT/mTOR). Conclusions: Carvacrol and thymol exhibited antitumor and antiproliferative activity through several signaling pathways. In vitro, carvacrol appears to be more potent than thymol. However, further in vivo studies with robust methodology are required to define a standard and safe dose, determine their toxic or side effects, and clarify its exact mechanisms of action. This systematic review was registered in the PROSPERO database (CRD42020176736) and the protocol is available at https://www.crd.york.ac.uk/prospero/display_record.php?RecordID=176736.

Genetic Susceptibility and Protein Expression of Extracellular Matrix Turnover-Related Genes in Oral Submucous Fibrosis. Int J Mol Sci 2020; 21:ijms21218104. [PMID: 33143101 PMCID: PMC7663238 DOI: 10.3390/ijms21218104] [Citation(s) in RCA: 25] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/21/2020] [Revised: 10/28/2020] [Accepted: 10/28/2020] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Betel quid (BQ) chewing increased the risk of oral cancer and oral submucous fibrosis (OSMF), an oral premalignant disorder (OPMD) with malignant transformation potential. BQ components such as areca nut (AN), trauma by coarse AN fiber, catechin, copper, alkaloids, stimulated reactive oxygen species (ROS), inflammation and cytotoxicity are suggested to be the contributing factors. They may induce tissue inflammation, proliferation of fibroblasts and collagen deposition, myofibroblast differentiation and contraction, collagen cross-links and inhibit collagen phagocytosis, finally leading to the development of OSMF and oral cancer. These events are mediated by BQ components-induced changes of extracellular matrix (ECM) turnover via regulation of TGF-β1, plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), cystatin, lysyl oxidase (LOX) and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) and metalloproteinases (MMPs). Genetic susceptibility is also involved in these disease processes. Further understanding the molecular mechanisms of BQ-induced OSMF and oral cancer can be helpful for future disease prevention and treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIM Matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP2) is up-regulated in many cancers. However, the association of MMP2 genotype to nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC) susceptibility in Taiwan remains elusive. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this study, the role of MMP2 promoter C-1306T (rs243865) and C-735T (rs2285053) genotypes were investigated among 208 NPC patients and 416 healthy controls, and their role in NPC staging and TNM classifications were examined. RESULTS There was no differential distribution as for the genotypic or allelic frequencies at MMP2 promoter C-1306T or C-735T between the control and case groups. Noticeably, those with MMP2 C-1306T CT+TT genotypes had a lower metastatic risk than those with CC (p=0.0295). As for staging, T and N classifications, there was no differential distribution in C-1306T genotypes (p>0.05). Also, there was no differential distribution of C-735T genotypes according to different behavioral/clinicopathological characteristics. CONCLUSION CT and TT genotypes at MMP2 C-1306T were associated with a significantly decreased risk of NPC metastasis.

Abstract
PURPOSE Numerous studies have estimated the association between matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) polymorphisms and the risk of oral cancer; the results, however, are inconsistent and conflicting. Therefore, we conducted a meta-analysis to evaluate the association of MMP-1, 2, and 3 polymorphisms with oral cancer risk. METHODS A computerized literature search was conducted of electronic databases and search engines. Odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated for each gene, and the heterogeneity among studies was estimated using the Q-test and I2 values. Overall and subgroup analyses were undertaken. Statistical analyses were conducted using Review Manager v5.3 and Stata v12.0 software. RESULTS Eighteen studies were included in this meta-analysis. For MMP-1(-1607) 1G/2G, a significant association was observed using the recessive genetic model (OR = 1.47; 95% CI = 1.14-1.91; I2 = 64%, pheterogeneity = 0.003). In the subgroup studies, a significant association was observed in the Asian subgroup (OR = 1.68; 95% CI = 1.42-1.99; I2 = 17%, pheterogeneity = 0.30 for the recessive model; and OR = 1.59; 95% CI = 1.19-2.13; I2 = 80%, pheterogeneity < 0.00001 for the allelic contrast model) and in the European subgroup (OR = 0.65; 95% CI = 0.44-0.98; I2 = 21%, pheterogeneity = 0.26 for the allelic contrast model). No significant associations were observed with either MMP-2(-1306) C/T or MMP-3(-1171) 5A/6A. CONCLUSIONS The MMP-1(-1607) 1G/2G polymorphism is associated with oral cancer risk, and the 2G allele played different roles in Asian and European populations.

Single nucleotide polymorphisms as markers of genetic susceptibility for oral potentially malignant disorders risk: Review of evidence to date. Oral Oncol 2018; 61:146-51. [PMID: 27688118 PMCID: PMC5046699 DOI: 10.1016/j.oraloncology.2016.08.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/25/2016] [Revised: 07/28/2016] [Accepted: 08/18/2016] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
We reviewed single nucleotide polymorphisms for oral pre-cancer susceptibility. All of them were pathway based candidate gene association studies. The current level of evidence is very limited. Integrated characterization of germline/somatic alterations in oral cancer & pre-cancer is needed.
Background Oral cancers are preceded by oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMD). Understanding genetic susceptibility for OPMD risk could provide an opportunity for risk assessment of oral cancer through early disease course. We conducted a review of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) studies for OPMD risk. Methods We identified all relevant studies examining associations of SNPs with OPMD (leukoplakia, erythroplakia and oral sub-mucous fibrosis) conducted world-wide between January, 2000 and February, 2016 using a combined keyword search on PubMed. Of these, 47 studies that presented results as odds ratios and 95% CI were considered for full review. Results The majority of eligible studies that explored candidate gene associations for OPMD were small (N < 200 cases), limiting their scope to provide strong inference for any SNP identified to date in any population. Commonly studied SNPs were genes of carcinogen metabolism (n = 18 studies), DNA repair (n = 11 studies), cell cycle control (n = 8 studies), extra-cellular matrix alteration (n = 8 studies) and immune-inflammatory (n = 6 studies) pathways. Based on significant associations as reported by two or more studies, suggestive markers included SNPs in GSTM1 (null), CCND1 (G870A), MMP3 (-1171; promotor region), TNFα (-308; rs800629), XPD (codon 751) and Gemin3 (rs197412) as well as in p53 (codon 72) in Indian populations. However, an equal or greater number of studies reported null or mixed associations for SNPs in GSTM1 (null), p53 (codon 72), XPD (codon 751), XRCC (rs25487 C/T), GSTT1 (null) and CYP1A1m1 (MspI site). Conclusion Candidate gene association studies have not yielded consistent data on risk loci for OPMD. High-throughput genotyping approaches for OPMD, with concurrent efforts for oral cancer, could prove useful in identifying robust risk-loci to help understand early disease course susceptibility for oral cancer.

Abstract
Purpose. To determine if the frequency of the genotype of MMP-2 (-1306 C/T) Rs243865 has an influence on the development of pituitary adenoma (PA). Methods. The study enrolled n = 84 patients with PA and a random sample of the population n = 318 (reference group). The genotyping test of MMP-2 (-1306 C/T) was carried out using the real-time polymerase chain reaction method. Results. Analysis of MMP-2 (-1306 C/T) gene polymorphism has not revealed any differences in the genotype (C/C, C/T, and T/T) distribution between the PA patients and the reference group (as follows: 50%, 44%, and 6% versus 59.75%, 33.96%, and 6.29%). MMP-2 (-1306) C/C genotype was rarely observed in noninvasive PA compared to healthy controls: 35.1% versus 59.75%; p = 0.0049, as well C/C genotype being more frequently detected in nonrecurrence PA compared to healthy controls: 46.5% versus 59.75%; p = 0.0468. MMP-2 (-1306) C/T genotype was more frequently present in PA females compared to healthy controls females: 49.1% versus 33.66%; p = 0.041. Conclusion. Patients with noninvasive and nonrecurrence pituitary adenoma were the carriers of the C/C genotype significantly more frequently than their control counterparts and the C/T genotype in females was more frequent.

Abstract
Matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP2) is an endopeptidase, mainly responsible for degradation of extracellular matrix components, which plays an important role in cancer disease. A single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) at -1306 disrupts a Sp1-type promoter site. The results from the published studies on the association between MMP2 -1306 C>T polymorphism and cancer risk are contradictory and inconclusive. In the present study, a meta-analysis was therefore performed to evaluate the strength of any association between the MMP2 -1306 C>T polymorphism and risk of cancer. We searched all eligible studies published on association between MMP2 -1306 C>T polymorphism and cancer risk in PubMed (Medline), EMBASE and Google Scholar online web databases until December 2013. Genotype distribution data were collected to calculate the pooled odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (95%CIs) to examine the strength of the association. A total of 8,590 cancer cases and 9,601 controls were included from twenty nine eligible case control studies. Overall pooled analysis suggested significantly reduced risk associated with heterozygous genotype (CT vs CC: OR=0.758, 95%CI=0.637 to 0.902, p=0.002) and dominant model (TT+CT vs CC: OR=0.816, 95%CI=0.678 to 0.982, p=0.032) genetic models. However, allelic (T vs C: OR=0.882, 95%CI=0.738 to 1.055, p=0.169), homozygous (TT vs CC: OR=1.185, 95%CI=0.825 to 1.700, p=0.358) and recessive (TT vs CC+CT: OR=1.268, 95%CI=0.897 to 1.793, p=0.179) models did not show any risk. No evidence of publication bias was detected during the analysis. The results of present meta-analysis suggest that the MMP2 -1306 C>T polymorphism is significantly associated with reduced risk of cancer. However, further studies with consideration of different populations will be required to evaluate this relationship in more detail.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It has been suggested that the matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and their tissue inhibitors (TIMPs) are involved in the degradation of extracellular matrix components, resulting in ocular tissue damage. The -735C/T and -1306C/T polymorphisms recognized in the promoter region of the MMP-2 gene resulting in its expression level were investigated in association with the development of primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) in a Polish population. METHODS DNA samples collected from 271 patients with POAG and 281 healthy controls were used in this study. Polymorphisms were determined by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). Clinical parameters of the rim area (RA) and retinal neuron fiber layer (RNFL) were also analyzed. RESULTS We found that the -735C/T and -1306C/T polymorphisms of MMP-2 were not associated with a risk of POAG. However, both the -735T/T (OR = 0.18 (0.04-0.92) p = 0.03) and the -1306T/T (OR = 0.14 (0.03-0.67) p = 0.007) genotypes of MMP-2 were significantly associated with the rim area factor in early stage of POAG suggesting its protective role in the disease progression. CONCLUSION Finally, our data suggest that gene polymorphisms of MMP-2 may have a protective role in the progression of primary open-angle glaucoma in a Polish population.

Abstract
Background The 1306 C>T, 1171 5A>6A, and 1562C>T polymorphisms of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) 2, MMP3, and MMP9 genes, respectively, have been found to be functional and may contribute to head and neck carcinogenesis. However, the results of case-control studies examining associations between MMP polymorphisms and head and neck cancer (HNC) risk remain inconclusive. Therefore, we performed a meta-analysis to further evaluate the role of these polymorphisms in HNC development. Methods We searched PubMed, ISI Web of Knowledge, MEDLINE, Embase, and Google Scholar to identify all published case-control studies of MMP2-1306 C>T, MMP3-1171 5A>6A, and MMP9-1562 C>T polymorphisms and HNC risk in the meta-analysis. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to assess the association between these polymorphisms and HNC risk. Results Thirteen studies were included in this meta-analysis. For MMP2-1306 C>T polymorphism, significant associations were observed under three genetic models both in overall comparison and in a hospital-based subgroup, and in oral cavity cancer and nasopharyngeal cancer under dominant model as well. For MMP3-1171 5A>6A and MMP9-1562 C>T polymorphisms, no association was found in overall comparison; however, in subgroup analyses based on ethnicity and tumor site, significant associations were detected between the MMP3-1171 5A>6A polymorphism and HNC risk in a European population and pharyngeal/laryngeal cancer under two genetic contrasts. Conclusion This meta-analysis suggests that the MMP2-1306 C>T polymorphism is associated with HNC risk, as is the MMP3-1171 5A>6A polymorphism specifically in some subgroups. Further studies with larger sample sizes are warranted.

Matrix metalloproteinase and its drug targets therapy in solid and hematological malignancies: an overview. Mutat Res 2013; 753:7-23.

Abstract
Matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) comprises a family of zinc-dependent endopeptidases that degrade various components of the extracellular matrix (ECM) and basement membrane. MMPs are involved in solid and hematological malignancy through modification of cell growth, activation of cancer cells and modulation of immune functions. Several polymorphisms of different MMPs such as MMP-1 (-1607 1G/2G), MMP-2 (-1306 C/T), MMP-3 (-1171 5A/6A) & MMP-9 (-1562 C/T) and their expression levels have been well documented in different types of solid cancer. These polymorphic variations were found to be associated with angiogenesis, cancer progression, invasion and metastasis. There is paucity of data available in the field of hematological malignancies. Hence the field of matrix biology of hematological malignancies is an area of active exploration. A number of MMP inhibitors (MMPIs) have been developed for the cancer treatment. The most extensively studied classes of MMP inhibitors include Batimastat, Marismastat, Salimatat, Prinomastat and Tanomastat. However, their efficacy and action have not been confirmed and more data is required. The application of one or more selective targeted MMPIs in combination with conventional anti-leukemic treatment may represent a positive approach in combat against hematopoietic malignancies. Balance of MMPs and TIMPs is altered in different malignancies and biochemical pathways. These alternations will add another dimension in the matrix biology of both solid tumor and leukemia. MMP and TIMP singly and in combination are increasingly being recognized as an important player in basic cellular biology. Exploration and exploitation of MMP and TIMP balance in various malignant and nonmalignant lesions is going to be one of the most interesting facets of future use of this system for human health care.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2 is a zinc-dependent proteinase that is capable of cleaving all extracellular matrix (ECM) substrates. Degradation of the matrix is a key event in the progression, invasion, and metastasis of potentially malignant and malignant lesions of the head and neck. Therefore, blocking MMP-2 expression or activity may present a promising strategy for anticancer treatment. AREAS COVERED Current understanding of the molecular mechanisms that govern MMP-2 regulation and its tumorigenic effects, and that are involved in the initiation and progression of head and neck cancers, in particular the emerging role of MMP-2 in cell migration, which is a prerequisite for tumor metastasis. MMP-2 gene polymorphisms, cellular substrates, and interacting proteins are summarized. The current state of drugs that target this enzyme, either alone or in combination with other targeted agents are also discussed. EXPERT OPINION MMP-2 has long been a drug target. The current status of MMP-2 inhibitors as anticancer agents and their failure in the clinic is discussed in light of new data on the MMP-2s role as a cell surface transducer - data that may lead to the design and development of novel, MMP-2-targeting inhibitors.

Abstract
Since oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is the most prevalent malignant cancer in the oral cavity, several researches have been performed to study the role of important enzymes in this disease. Among them, the matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are highlighted, due to the fact that they are proteinases responsible to degrade many extra-cellular matrix components, making possible the invasion of neoplasic cells. Important tools in cancer prognosis have been utilized aiming to correlate high levels of MMPs and OSCC, such as immunohistochemical, zymographic and mRNA detection methods. However, these techniques are usually applied after cancer detection, characterizing a curative but not a preventive medicine. Trying to make interventions before the development of the disease and making possible the identification of people at high risk and, analysis of modifications in MMP genes has been a chance for modern medicine. Recently, polymorphisms in MMP genes have been related to different neoplasias, including OSCC. Despite investigation is beginning, MMP gene polymorphisms seems to have a promising future in oral cancer research and some of the present results have shown that there are MMP polymorphisms related to an increased risk for developing oral cancer. Key words:Oral cancer, polymorphism, matrix metalloproteinase.

Abstract
Matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP2) has been shown to play an important role in several steps of cancer development. The -1306C/T polymorphism of the MMP2 gene displays a strikingly lower promoter activity than the T allele, and the CC genotype in the MMP2 promoter has been reported to associate with the development of several cancers. To assess the contribution of the MMP2 -1306C/T polymorphism to the risk of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), we conducted a case-control study and analyzed MMP2 genotypes in 370 patients with NPC and 390 frequency-matched controls using real-time PCR-based TaqMan allele analysis. We found that subjects with the CC genotype had an increased risk (OR = 1.55, 95% CI = 1.05-2.27) of developing NPC compared to those with the CT or TT genotypes. Furthermore, we found that the risk of NPC was markedly increased in subjects who were smokers (OR = 15.04, 95% CI = 6.65-33.99), heavy smokers who smoked ≥20 pack-years (OR = 18.66, 95% CI = 7.67-45.38), or young (<60 years) at diagnosis (OR = 1.52, 95% CI = 1.01-2.29). Our results provide molecular epidemiological evidence that the MMP2 –1306C/T promoter polymorphism is associated with NPC risk, and this association is especially noteworthy in heavy smokers.

Abstract
Co-culture of periodontal ligament (PDL) fibroblasts and SCC-25 oral squamous carcinoma cells (OSCC), results in conversion of PDLs into carcinoma-associated fibroblasts (CAFs). Paracrin circuits between CAFs and OSCC cells were hypothesized to regulate the gene expression of matrix remodeling enzymes in their co-culture, which was performed for 7days, followed by analysis of the mRNA/protein expression and activity of metalloproteinases (MMPs), their tissue inhibitors (TIMPs) and other relevant genes. Interleukin1-β, transforming growth factor-β1, fibronectin and αvβ6 integrin have shown to be involved in the regulation of the MMP and TIMP gene expression in co-culture of CAFs and tumor cells. In addition, these cells also cooperated in activation of MMP pro-enzymes. It is particularly interesting that the fibroblast-produced inactive MMP-2 has been activated by the tumor-cell-produced membrane-type 1 matrix metalloproteinase (MT1-MMP). The crosstalk between cancer- and the surrounding fibroblast stromal-cells is essential for the fine tuning of cancer cells invasivity.

Abstract
Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1), which plays a critical role in the base excision DNA repair mechanism, and matrix metallopeptidase 2 (MMP2), a member of the matrix metalloprotease family, are involved in tumor formation and metastasis, respectively. In the present study, the possible association of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and gene-gene interaction between PARP1 and MMP2 with the increased incidence of gastric cancer (GC) development and lymph node metastasis (LNM) was investigated in a Korean population. Samples were obtained from 326 patients with chronic gastritis and 153 patients with GC and genotyped using the GoldenGate® method. The PARP1 rs1136410 genotype showed a significant association with the frequency of LNM of GC (odds ratio [OR] = 2.19, p = 0.02), LNM stage (p = 0.035), and tumor invasion (p = 0.035). The allele frequency of MMP2 rs243865 was not associated with the development of GC or with the development of LNM of GC. Epistasis between the PARP1 SNP and the MMP2 SNP was associated with the development of LNM of GC. The combination of the MMP2 rs243865 CC genotype and the PARP1 rs1136410 CC or CC+CT genotypes showed a high risk of LNM of GC (OR = 2.47, p = 0.01; OR = 2.28, p = 0.01, respectively). In summary, PARP1 is associated with the risk of LNM of GC and the stage of LNM and tumor invasion. Epistasis between PARP1 rs1136410 and MMP2 rs243865 increased the risk of LNM of GC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are enzymes that degrade all the components of extra cellular matrix and collagen. Various types of MMPs are known to be expressed and activated in patients with oral submucous fibrosis (OSMF) as well as head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). The purpose of this study was to asses the association of the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) adenosine insertion/deletion polymorphism (-1171 5A->6A) in the MMP-3 promoter region in these lesions. METHODS MMP-3 SNP was genotyped by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) analysis in a case control study consisting of 362 participants; 101 cases of OSMF, 135 of HNSCC and 126 controls, compared for age, sex and habits. ROC distribution was plotted to assess the contributions of genetic variation in MMP-3 genotypes with relation to age. RESULTS Analysis of MMP 3 (-1171 5A->6A) polymorphism revealed the frequency of 5A allele in OSMF, HNSCC and controls to be 0.15, 0.13 and 0.07, respectively. A significant difference was found in 5A genotype frequency between OSMF (5A genotype frequency = 0.15, p = 0.01, OR = 2.26, 95% CI = 1.22-4.20) and in controls (5A genotype frequency 0.07) as well as HNSCC (5A genotype frequency 0.13, p = 0.03,95%CI = 1.06-3.51) and controls (5A genotype frequency = 0.07) In this study, 5A genotype had greater than two fold risk for developing OSMF (OR = 2.26) and nearly the same in case of HNSCC (OR = 1.94) as compared to controls. In patients with OSMF as well as HNSCC, the ROC analysis between the MMP-3 genotype and age, 6A/6A allele was found to be significant in patients both over and under 45 years of age; while the 5A/5A carrier alleles showed an association only in patients less than 45 years of age. CONCLUSIONS This study concluded that the expression of MMP-3 genotype associated with the 5A alleles, it may have an important role in the susceptibility of the patients to develop OSMF and HNSCC.

Abstract
AIM To study the association between polymorphisms of the MMP-2 gene and diabetic retinopathy (DR). METHODS MMP-2 C-1306T and C-735T SNPs was genotyped by polymerase chain reaction-restrictive fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) analysis in 151 DR patients and 150 healthy individuals served as control. RESULTS There is no significant difference between the patient and control groups in allele or genotype distributions of MMP-2 C-735T (P=0.263 and P=0.248). Also, there is no significant difference between the patient and control in allele of MMP-2 C-1306T (P=0.03). However the result has significant deviation of C/C, C/T, T/T genotypic frequencies between the patient and control groups in MMP-2 C-1306T (P=0.008). We found that subjects with the MMP-2 C-1306T genotype had an overall 2-fold increase in the risk of developing DR [adjusted odds ratio (OR)=2.446; 95% confidence interval (CI)=1.239-4.829] compared with those with the T-1306T or C-1306T genotype. Stratification analysis showed that the MMP-2 -1306C/T and -735C/T SNPs are not associated with the development of NPDR to PDR of DR in North Chinese Han population. CONCLUSION MMP-2 C-1306T genotypes may be associated with DR development in the Chinese population. However, there is no relationship between the MMP-2 C-735T genotypes with the development of DR.

Abstract
Matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) 2, MMP7 and MMP9 are important members of the MMP family. Four polymorphisms in the promoter region of these MMPs, which are MMP2 -1306 C>T, MMP2 -735 C>T, MMP7 -181 A>G and MMP9 -1562 C>T, have been reported to be functional and may contribute to genetic susceptibility to cancers. However, the associations between these polymorphisms and cancer risk remain inconclusive due to conflicting results from different case-control studies. To better evaluate the role of these polymorphisms in cancer development, we conducted a meta-analysis that included 51 studies, with more than 40,000 subjects. The results showed that under dominant genetic model, MMP2 -1306 T was associated with lower susceptibility to lung cancer [odds ratio (OR) = 0.50, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.43-0.59, P(heterogeneity) = 0.147, I(2) = 44.1%], head and neck cancer (OR = 0.53, 95% CI 0.41-0.69, P(heterogeneity) = 0.974, I(2) = 0.0%) and oesophageal cancer (OR = 0.67, 95% CI 0.55-0.80, P(heterogeneity) = 0.593, I(2) = 0.0%); MMP2-735T was associated with lower risk in lung cancer (OR = 0.65, 95%CI 0.53-0.79, P(heterogeneity) = 0.42, I(2) = 0.0%) and oesophageal cancer (OR = 0.84, 95% CI 0.70-0.99, P(heterogeneity) = 0.206, I(2) = 37.4%); MMP7 -181 AG and GG genotype carriers had an increased gastric cancer risk (OR = 1.90, 95% CI 1.43-2.51, P(heterogeneity) = 0.992, I(2) = 0.0%) and MMP9 -1562 C>T was not associated with cancer risk in the whole group analysis (OR = 0.99, 95% CI 0.91-1.08, P(heterogeneity) = 0.419, I(2) = 3.0%) and subgroup analyses. In all, our meta-analysis suggests that MMP2 -1306 C>T, MMP2 -735 C>T and MMP7 -181 A>G may play allele-specific roles in cancer development, while MMP9 -1562 C>T may not be a major risk factor for most cancer types. Large case-control studies should be performed to clarify the possible roles of these four polymorphisms in different kinds of cancer in more detail.

Abstract
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a family of zinc-dependent proteinases that are capable of cleaving all extra cellular matrix (ECM) substrates. Degradation of matrix is a key event in progression, invasion and metastasis of potentially malignant and malignant lesions of the head and neck. It might have an important polymorphic association at the promoter regions of several MMPs such as MMP-1 (-1607 1G/2G), MMP-2 (-1306 C/T), MMP-3 (-1171 5A/6A), MMP-9 (-1562 C/T) and TIMP-2 (-418 G/C or C/C). Tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) are naturally occurring inhibitors of MMPs, which inhibit the activity of MMPs and control the breakdown of ECM. Currently, many MMP inhibitors (MMPIs) are under development for treating different malignancies. Useful markers associated with molecular aggressiveness might have a role in prognostication of malignancies and to better recognize patient groups that need more antagonistic treatment options. Furthermore, the introduction of novel prognostic markers may also promote exclusively new treatment possibilities, and there is an obvious need to identify markers that could be used as selection criteria for novel therapies. The objective of this review is to discuss the molecular functions and polymorphic association of MMPs and TIMPs and the possible therapeutic aspects of these proteinases in potentially malignant and malignant head and neck lesions. So far, no promising drug target therapy has been developed for MMPs in the lesions of this region. In conclusion, further research is required for the development of their potential diagnostic and therapeutic possibilities.

Genotypes were analyzed by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment-length polymorphism method in 592 patients and 624 healthy individuals. Significant differences in allele and genotype distributions of MMP-2 -1306C --> T SNP were observed between ESCC and controls (P = 0.02 and 0.01, respectively). Compared with the C/T + T/T genotypes, C/C genotype significantly increased the risk of ESCC (OR = 1.57, 95% CI = 1.10-2.23), especially in individuals in smoker group and in the group with positive family history. The stratification analysis showed there were risk changes of GCA for -735C/C genotype carrier in nonsmoker, for MMP-12 -82G allele and MMP-13 -77A/G genotype carrier in smoker. Our study indicated that these four functional polymorphisms might play roles in developing ESCC and GCA in high incidence region of North China.

Abstract
Protein microarrays have shown that matrix metalloproteinase-7 is upregulated in head and neck squamous cell carcinomas, but its role in local tissue invasion is still uncertain. We investigated the expression of active matrix metalloproteinase-7, using tissue microarray, immunohistochemistry, and western blotting, in oral tissues from 24 patients with buccal squamous cell carcinoma, and correlated the findings with clinicopathological features. Normal buccal tissue samples from the same patients, obtained at sites at least 1 cm from tumor tissue, served as normal controls. Total matrix metalloproteinase-7 was detected on western blots in 9 of 15 (60%) tumor tissue samples and in 2 of 15 (13%) normal mucosal samples; this difference was significant (P=0.008). Moreover, the active matrix metalloproteinase-7 was expressed only in eight of the nine (89%) tumor samples that expressed matrix metalloproteinase-7, and in none of the normal tissue samples, regardless of the expression status of the pro-matrix metalloproteinase-7. Immunostaining of matrix metalloproteinase-7 was observed histologically in both tumor and nonneoplastic epithelium, but immunostaining of active matrix metalloproteinase-7 was present only in tumor nests. Expression of active matrix metalloproteinase-7 was associated with larger tumor size (P=0.022) and was significantly higher in buccal squamous cell carcinoma with adjacent skin or bone invasion (P=0.036). In conclusion, active matrix metalloproteinase-7 expression was associated with more aggressive buccal squamous cell carcinomas.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1) are important in many physiological and pathological processes. METHODS Immunohistochemistry for MMP-2, MMP-9, membrane-type 1 MMP (MT1-MMP, MMP-14), tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinase (TIMP)-2, and TGF-beta were performed on normal mucosa, nonatrophic oral lichen planus, atrophic oral lichen planus, and oral squamous cell carcinomas (OSCC) resulting from lichen planus. RESULTS Expression of MMPs progressively increased from normal mucosa to nonatrophic oral lichen planus, atrophic oral lichen planus, and OSCCs. Immunoscores of MMPs in atrophic oral lichen planus was significantly greater than nonatrophic oral lichen planus. Moreover, immunoscore of MMP-9 of OSCCs was significantly greater than both atrophic and nonatrophic lichen planus. Furthermore, expression of TIMP-2 and TGF-beta1 paralleled increases seen with MMPs. CONCLUSIONS Imbalance between MMPs and TIMPs may be involved in cancerization of oral lichen planus. MMP-2, MT1-MMP, and especially MMP-9 may be useful markers for judging potency of malignant transformation from oral lichen planus.

Abstract
Several hundred million Asians chew areca nut, which is strongly associated with oral carcinogenesis in people of this region. The impacts of areca nut extract on oral target cells are largely unclear. This study hypothesized an inductive role for areca-nut-exposed stromal cells in the progression of oral carcinomas in an at-risk population. Oral fibroblasts with chronic subtoxic areca nut extract treatment exhibited growth arrest and MMP-2 activation. The supernatant of arrested oral fibroblasts activated the AKT signaling pathway in oral carcinoma cells. The enhancement of proliferation, migration, and anchorage-independent growth of oral carcinoma cells elicited by such supernatant could be abrogated by blockers against MMP-2 or AKT. Subcutaneous co-injection of arrested oral fibroblasts into nude mice significantly enhanced the tumorigenicity of xenographic oral carcinoma cells. This study concludes that areca nut extract may impair oral fibroblasts and then modulate the progression of oral epithelial oncogenesis via their secreted molecules.

Abstract
The matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) may contribute to the development of adenomyosis. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the promoter regions of MMP-2 (-1306C/T and -735C/T) and TIMP-2 (-418G/C) genes were related to the risk of adenomyosis development. Genotypes were determined by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) assay in 180 adenomyosis patients and 324 frequency-matched control women in a Chinese population. There were significant differences in allele frequencies and genotype distributions of the MMP-2 -1306C/T polymorphism between patients and control women (P = 0.01 and 0.04, respectively). The frequency of C allele in patients (92.2%) was significantly higher than in the controls (87.0%) (P = 0.01). Compared with the C/T+T/T genotypes, the C/C genotype could significantly increase the risk of adenomyosis development, with an odds ratio of 1.83 (95% CI = 1.13-2.96). However, no statistically significant difference was found in allele frequencies and genotype distributions of MMP-2 -735C/T and TIMP-2 -418G/C SNPs between the two groups (all P values > 0.05). Two polymorphisms of MMP-2 displayed linkage disequilibrium (D' = 0.74). The haplotype analysis suggested no significant association of four haplotypes with the risk of adenomyosis development. Our results indicated an association of MMP-2 -1306C/T polymorphism with the risk of adenomyosis, suggesting a potential role in adenomyosis development in North Chinese women.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) is an enzyme with proteolytic activity on matrix proteins, particularly basement membrane constituents. A single nucleotide polymorphism C>T transition at -1306 displayed a strong association with several cancers. Our study investigated whether or not the MMP-2 -1306C>T polymorphism contributed to the development of breast cancer (BC) in a Mexican population. METHODS 90 patients with BC and 96 control subjects were analyzed to detect MMP-2 -1306C>T polymorphism. RESULTS The frequency of MMP-2 CC genotype was significantly higher in BC patients when compared with the control group (OR 2.15; 95% CI 1.1-4.1). MMP-2 CC genotype frequency was more pronounced in younger subjects (< or =50 years) at diagnosis (OR 2.66; 95% CI 1.04-6.96). CONCLUSION The data suggest that MMP-2 -1306C>T polymorphism strongly contributes to the development of BC in the population studied, especially among women 50 years old and younger.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Aggressive periodontitis (AgP) has a genetic basis. It has been reported that the functional gene polymorphisms of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2, MMP-9 and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-2 (TIMP-2) alter their expressions in transcriptional level and they are involved in the tissue destruction of periodontitis. The study was carried out to analyse the association of functional polymorphisms in MMP-2, MMP-9 and TIMP-2 with generalized AgP (G-AgP) in a Chinese population. MATERIAL AND METHODS The study population consisted of 79 Chinese patients with G-AgP and 128 healthy controls. DNA was obtained from oral mucosa swab samples. MMP-2 genotypes were determined by PCR-based denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography analysis while MMP-9 and TIMP-2 genotypes were identified by a PCR-based restriction fragment length polymorphism. Chi2 test after Yates' correction was used to investigate the possible association of the genotypes with the G-AgP. RESULTS Although gene polymorphisms for MMP-2 and MMP-9 did not show any association with the G-AgP, the analysis of the TIMP-2 -418G to C gene polymorphism revealed significant differences between the patients and controls. Compared with controls, a significant increasing trend of TIMP-2 -418C carrier in the G-AgP patients occurred (p=0.013). CONCLUSION It is suggested that the TIMP2 -418G to C gene polymorphism is associated with G-AgP in the Chinese subjects.

Abstract
Many extracellular matrix (ECM) proteases seem to be important in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and regulation of their transcription levels is a critical mechanism for controlling their activity. We have investigated, therefore, whether the best-characterized single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) affecting transcription of the ECM proteases that have been related with joint pathology are associated with RA susceptibility. Nine SNPs in eight genes were selected by bibliographic search, including SNPs in the genes encoding matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)1, MMP2, MMP3, MMP7, MMP9, MMP13, plasminogen activator, tissue type (PLAT) and PAI-1. They were studied in a case-control setting that included 550 RA patients and 652 controls of Spanish ancestry from a single center. Genotyping was performed by single-base extension. Only two of the nine SNPs showed significant association with RA susceptibility. RA patients showed increased frequencies of the -7351 T allele of the gene encoding PLAT (36.4% versus 32.1% in controls, p = 0.026) and the -1306 T allele of the gene encoding MMP2 (24.5% versus 20.3% in controls, p = 0.013). These two alleles seemed to cooperate according to an additive model with respect to increased RA susceptibility (p = 0.004), and they were the low-expression alleles of the respective SNPs in a PLAT enhancer and the MMP2 promoter. These findings are in agreement with previous data suggesting that these two ECM proteases have a protective role in RA pathology. Confirmation of these associations will be needed to support these hypotheses. The remaining SNPs did not show association, either individually or collectively. Therefore, although regulatory SNPs in ECM proteases did not show any major effect on RA susceptibility, it was possible to find modest associations that, if replicated, will have interesting implications in the understanding of RA pathology.

Abstract
Gastric cancers express enhanced levels of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and their tissue inhibitors (TIMPs). Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in MMP and TIMP genes may be associated with disease susceptibility and might also affect their antigen expression. We studied the genotype distribution and allele frequencies of SNPs of MMP-2, -7, -8 and -9 and TIMP-1 and -2 in gastric cancer patients in relation to tumour progression, patient survival and tissue antigen expression. The genotype distribution and allele frequencies were similar in gastric cancer patients and controls, except for MMP-7−181A>G. In addition, the genotype distribution of MMP-7−181A>G was associated with Helicobacter pylori status (χ2 7.8, P=0.005) and tumour-related survival of the patients. Single-nucleotide polymorphism TIMP-2303C>T correlated significantly with the WHO classification (χ2 5.9, P=0.03) and also strongly with tumour-related survival (log rank 11.74, P=0.0006). Single-nucleotide polymorphisms of MMP-2, -8, -9 and TIMP-1 were not associated with tumour-related survival. Only the gene promoter MMP-2−1306C>T polymorphism correlated significantly with the protein level within the tumours. First-order dendrogram cluster analysis combined with Cox analysis identified the MMP-7−181A>G and TIMP-2303C>T polymorphism combination to have a major impact on patients survival outcome. We conclude that MMP-related SNPs, especially MMP-7−181A>G and TIMP-2303C>T, may be helpful in identifying gastric cancer patients with a poor clinical outcome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Insertion/deletion (-1171 5A-->6A) polymorphisms in the promoter region of matrix metalloproteinase 3 (MMP3) gene result in different transcriptional activities. MMP3 is able to degrade collagens types II, V, IX, and X, and other extracellular matrix. The functional promoter polymorphism of MMP3 has been related to the susceptibility in some inflammatory diseases and metastasis of cancers. METHODS Oral submucous fibrosis (OSF) and oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) are prevalent among Asian areca users. In this study, genomic DNA obtained from the blood of OSCC (n = 150), OSF (n = 71), and control non-diseased areca user (n = 98) in male were subjected to polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based genotyping of MMP3. RESULTS The 5A genotype in MMP3 promoter was observed more frequently in OSF group than in control group (P = 0.01). No significant difference was noted between OSCC and control groups on the 5A genotype frequency (P = 0.18). No association was found between 5A genotype in MMP3 promoter and site or lymph node metastasis and stage of OSCC. CONCLUSION The results indicated that the 5A genotype of MMP3 promoter was associated with the risk of OSF but not OSCC.

Abstract
Areca (betel)-chewing is tightly associated with the high prevalence of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) in Asians. NFKB1 encodes a 105kDa protein that can be processed to produce p50 subunit of nuclear factor-kappaB protein complex. A insertion (ins)/deletion (del) polymorphism (-94ins/delATTG) in NFKB1 promoter, which may drive the ins allele two-fold increase in NFKB1 transcription relative to del allele, was recently found. This study identified that the odds ratio in OSCC carrying ins allelotype were 1.78 relative to controls (56.7 vs 41.8%) in subjects more than 50 years old. L allelotype of Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), accounting for a long (GT)(n) repeat in HO-1 promoter, is associated with the risks of areca-related OSCC. Subjects carried both NFKB1 ins and HO-1 L allelotypes had significant risks for various subsets of OSCC. OSCC with lymph node metastasis or advanced stage had significantly higher frequency of NFKB1 ins and HO-1 L allelotypes. This study suggested that the functional NFKB1promoter polymorphism could be valuable for assessment of cancer risk.

Abstract
The development of array comparative genomic hybridization (array CGH) at tiling-path resolution has enabled the detection of gene-sized segmental DNA copy number gains and losses. Here, we present the first application of whole genome tiling-path array CGH to archival clinical specimens for the detailed analysis of oral squamous cell carcinomas (OSCC). We describe the genomes of 20 OSCCs as well as a selection of matched normal DNA in unprecedented detail. Examination of their whole genome profiles enabled the identification of alterations ranging in size from whole-arm, segmental, to gene size alterations. Tiling-path resolution enabled the detection of many more alterations within each tumor than previously reported, many of which include narrow alterations found to be frequent events among the 20 OSCCs. We report the presence of several novel frequent submegabase alterations, such as the 0.58 Mb gain at 5p15.2 containing triple functional domain (TRIO), detected in 45% of cases. We also report the first coamplification of two gene clusters, by fine-mapping the precise base pair boundaries of the high-level amplification at 11q22.2-22.3 containing both matrix metalloproteinase and baculoviral IAP repeat-containing protein 2 (BIRC) gene clusters. These results show the large improvement in detection sensitivity and resolution compared with genome interval marker arrays and the utility of tiling resolution array CGH for the detection of both submegabase and single copy gains and losses in cancer gene discovery.

Abstract
Matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) plays important roles in cancer initiation and progression. Our previous studies revealed that the -1306C-->T and -735C-->T polymorphisms in MMP2 promoter significantly influence transcriptional activity and their genotypes and haplotypes are associated with susceptibility to several cancers. This case-control study examined the contribution of these two polymorphisms to the risk of developing lung cancer. MMP2 genotypes and haplotypes were determined in 770 cases and 777 controls and the associations with risk of lung cancer were estimated by logistic regression. We observed a 2-fold [odds ratio (OR), 2.12; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.64-2.72] or 1.6-fold (OR, 1.57; 95% CI, 1.27-1.95) excess risk of developing lung cancer for the -1306CC or -735CC genotype carriers compared with non-carriers, respectively. A greater risk of lung cancer was associated with the C(-1306)-C(-735) haplotype (OR, 5.01; 95% CI, 2.57-9.78) compared with the T(-1306)-T(-735) haplotype, suggesting a synergic effect of these two polymorphisms. Furthermore, a greater than additive joint effect of the polymorphisms and smoking increased an even higher risk of lung cancer. The OR for smokers with the C(-1306)-C(-735) haplotype was 6.24 (95% CI, 4.51-8.64), which was significantly higher than that (OR, 4.10; 95% CI, 2.89-5.81) of smokers with the T(-1306) or T(-735)-containing haplotypes (P < 0.001). These results are consistent with our previous findings and further support the hypothesis that gain-of-function of MMP2 resulting from genetic polymorphisms plays an important role in human carcinogenesis.
