Target Information
TIMP metallopeptidase inhibitor 1, commonly referred to as TIMP1, is a glycoprotein that functions as a tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases. This glycoprotein naturally inhibits matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), a group of peptidases responsible for degrading the extracellular matrix. TIMP1 has been shown to have anti-apoptotic effects, meaning it can inhibit programmed cell death. The balance of MMPs and TIMPs is very important in the studies of airway remodeling. Studies examine how TIMP1 contributes to airway hyperresponsiveness and inflammation. Guinea pigs are extensively used as models for respiratory diseases, particularly asthma and airway remodeling.
