Tumor necrosis factor stimulates gelatinase and collagenase production by granulation tissue in culture
Tumor necrosis factor (TNF, 2.6×10 −11 – 10 −9M) caused an increase in the production of active gelatinase and latent collagenase by granulation tissue in culture. As determined by SDS-substrate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, granulation tissue produced mainly two species of gelatinase with mol...

Zusammenfassung: | Tumor necrosis factor (TNF, 2.6×10
−11 – 10
−9M) caused an increase in the production of active gelatinase and latent collagenase by granulation tissue in culture. As determined by SDS-substrate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, granulation tissue produced mainly two species of gelatinase with molecular weights of 64 kDa and 57 kDa, and an additional 80-kDa gelatinase was produced by TNF treatment. The results suggest that TNF may play a role in a rapid collagen turnover in the carrageenin-induced granulation tissue in rats. |
