Rapamycin

downin mouse cells1

1 study
  1. Rapamycin decreases MMP-2 and MMP-9 in aortic smooth muscle cells isolated from mgR/mgR mice.

    “expression of mTOR, p-RPS6, tumour necrosis factor α, matrix metalloproteinase-2 and -9 was significantly suppressed by rapamycin”

Acarbose

downin cells1

1 study
  1. Acarbose decreases MMP-2 and MMP-9 in cells.

    “Acarbose also inhibited the phosphorylation of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) and Akt, activities of the matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) MMP-2 and MMP-9”

    Cells

    Acarbose inhibits the proliferation and migration of vascular smooth muscle cells via targeting Ras signaling
