Матриксные металлопротеиназы (ММП) - ферменты класса гидролаз, осуществляющие ферментативный катализ с помощью связанного в активном центре иона цинка. Функции ММП разнообразны, и нарушение баланса их активности может быть одним из этиологических факторов различных заболеваний. В данном обзоре рассмотрена классификация ММП человека, особенности их структуры и регуляции, а также роль в физиологических и патологических процессах в организме человека. Приведен перечень наиболее изученных на настоящий момент полиморфных вариантов генов MMП, описаны их функциональные эффекты и представлены результаты ассоциативных исследований. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are enzymes of the hydrolase class that carry out enzymatic catalysis with the help of a zinc ion bound in the active center. MMP functions are diverse, and a disturbance in the balance of their activity may be one of the etiological factors of various diseases. In this review, the classification of human MMP, the features of their structure and regulation, as well as the role in physiological and pathological processes in the human body are considered. A list of the most studied polymorphic versions of MMP genes has been given, their functional effects have been described, and the results of associative studies have been presented.

A modular synthesis provides access to a series of new tris(pyrazolyl)borate ligands <sup>XpyMe</sup>TpK that possess a single functionalized pendant pyridyl (py) or pyrimidyl (pyd) arm designed to engage in tunable intramolecular H-bonding to metal–bound functionalities. To illustrate such H-bonding interactions, a series of [<sup>XpyMe</sup>TpCu]<sub>2</sub>(𝜇–OH)<sub>2</sub>(<b>6a</b><b>–6e</b>) complexes were synthesized from the corresponding <sup>XpyMe</sup>TpCu–OAc (<b>5a–5e</b>) complexes. Single crystal X-ray structures of three new dinuclear [<sup>XpyMe</sup>TpCu]<sub>2</sub>(𝜇–OH)<sub>2</sub>complexes reveal H-bonding between the pendant heterocycle and bridging hydroxide ligands while the donor arm engages the copper center in an unusual monomeric <sup>DMAPMe</sup>TpCu–OH complex. Vibrational studies (IR) of each bridging hydroxide complex reveal reduced 𝜈<sub>OH </sub>frequencies that tracks with the H-bond accepting ability of the pendant arm.

A series of ceramics samples belonging to theCeO2-Bi2O3phase system have been prepared via a coprecipitation route. The crystallized phases were obtained by heating the solid precursors at600∘Cfor 6 hours, then quenching the samples. X-ray diffraction analyses show that forx<0.20a solid solutionCe1−xBixO2−x/2with fluorine structure is formed. For x ranging between 0.25 and 0.7, a tetragonalβ′phase coexisting with the FCC solid solution is observed. For x ranging between 0.8 and 0.9, a new tetragonalβphase appears. Theβ′phase is postulated to be a superstructure of theβphase. Finally, close tox=1, the classical monoclinicα Bi2O3structure is observed. Raman spectroscopy confirms the existence of the phase changes as x varies between 0 and 1.

An amperometric biosensor based on the enzyme polyphenoloxidase (PPO), which makes the bioelectrocatalysis of phenolic compounds, was developed and optimized using cathecol as substrate. Polyethersulphone membranes were used for enzyme immobilization. Polyphenoloxidase oxidizes monophenols (cresolase activity) and diphenols (catecholase activity) into the corresponding o-quinones; the o-quinones formed in the enzymatic catalysis are then reduced back to cathecol at ­200 mV (vs. Ag, AgCl) at a platinum electrode. The polyphenoloxidase immobilized was from commercial origin or extracted from mushrooms. p-Cresol and phenol substrates were also tested. Reproducibility, response time, linearity, sensitivity, and stability of the biosensor were studied.
