High glucose concentration decreases the degradation of mesangium matrix, an action substantially mediated by a reduction in the activities of the matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). Metalloproteinase-2 is unique in that it is activated on the cell surface by one of the membrane type metalloproteinases (MT1-MMP), a process involving complex interactions with tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-2. The aim of this study was investigate the effects of glucose concentration on mesangial cell gene expression of MT1-MMP and its ability to modulate the activation of metalloproteinase-2.

High glucose concentration inhibits the expression of membrane type metalloproteinase by mesangial cells: possible role in mesangium accumulation
