Homo sapiens | interleukin-1beta and tumor necrosis factor-alpha induce MMP-13 expression. When CCAAT/enhancer binding protein beta, i.e. C/EBPbeta and liver-enriched activator protein, LAP, are overexpressed in C-28/I2 cells, endogenous MMP-13 expression is stimulated up to 32fold. Both C/EBPbeta and AP-1 are essential regulators of the MMP-13 promoter | up |

additional information | MMP-13 expression is increased in rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis | Homo sapiens |
physiological function | MMP-13 efficiently degrades proteoglycans and type II collagen in articular cartilage and may therefore play a central role in articular cartilage degradation | Homo sapiens |
