A new role for TIMP-1 in modulating neurite outgrowth and morphology of cortical neurons.

A new role for TIMP-1 in modulating neurite outgrowth and morphology of cortical neurons.

BACKGROUND:Tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-1 (TIMP-1) displays pleiotropic activities, both dependent and independent of its inhibitory activity on matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). In the central nervous system (CNS), TIMP-1 is strongly upregulated in reactive astrocytes and cortical neurons...
