Possible Interaction: Acetylcysteine and Collagenases

Research Papers that Mention the Interaction

Here, we demonstrated ROS production by IL-1-stimulated bovine chondrocytes and that neutralizing ROS activity by the potent antioxidant, N-acetylcysteine , or inhibiting endogenous ROS production by diphenyleneiodonium (DPI), significantly attenuated IL-1-induced c-fos and collagenase gene expression.

Consistent with this, genistein and n-acetyl cysteine blocked ultraviolet induction of cJun-driven enzyme, collagenase.

Although acetylcysteine has been reported to inhibit collagenase in vitro it has a direct effect of enhancing the respiratory burst and possibly degranulation of PMN stimulated by opsonized zymosan.

We have shown that antioxidant N-acetylcysteine (NAC, 2-10 mM) quickly (for 2 hours) and completely inactivates the activity of matrix metalloproteinases (gelatinases MMP-2 and MMP-9, and collagenases MMP-1 and MMP-8) secreted by transformed mouse fibroblasts 3T3-SV40 into the medium.

OBJECTIVE To determine whether tetanus antitoxin, equine serum, and acetylcysteine , which are currently used in the treatment of equine corneal ulcer, inhibit the digestion of equine corneal collagen when exposed to collagenase in vitro.
