dc.description.abstractMMP-2 and MMP-14 process extracellular matrix proteins,cytokines, growth factors and adhesion molecules to generatefragments with enhanced or reduced biological activity.In this study, a vectorsystem was developed for theconditional expression of MMP-2 and MMP-14 in the liver oftransgenic mice. For this vectorsystem the murine albuminpromotor was chosen together with the cre/lox system toachieve an inducible MMP-expression in the liver.Only one of the MMP-14 transgenic lines expressed highamounts of active MMP-14 protein after recombination of thelox-P sites. In these mice MMP-14 was able to activate MMP-2and MMP-13 in vivo. However, none of the livers of MMP-14overexpressing mice showed no differences in liverweight,amount of extracellular matrixproteins and rate ofproliferation, apoptosis and tumor-induction when comparedto the liver of wildtype mice.On the other hand overexpression of MMP-2 was embryoniclethal in all MMP-2 transgenic lines. After crossing theMMP-2 transgenic mice with cre deleter mice, a cre mediatedrecombination could be shown at day 6.5 post coitum (pc).Some of the double transgenic embryos of one of thetransgenic lines had severe deformations of the head,especially of the telencephalon and the mesencephalon.It could be shown in this study that disregulation of MMP-2in early embryonic development is lethal but anoverexpression of MMP-14 has no influence on the embryonicdevelopment or the homeostasis of the adult liver.With this conditional vectorsystem it is to possible studythe influnce of MMP-2 and MMP-14 on fibrogenesis,regeneration and tumorgenesis in the liver of mice.en_GB
