| Knockout | Targeted disruption of the stromelysin-1 gene in mice did not prevent or reduce cartilage destruction in collagen-induced arthritis (Mudgett et al., 1998). The mice show a delay in excisional wound healing due to a failure in wound contraction resulting from impaired contraction of fibroblasts (Bullard et al., 1999a; Bullard et al., 1999b). Lung damage in response to immunoglobulin G immune complexes was alleviated in the deficient mice, indicating that stromelysin-1 is one of the damaging factors in this condition (Warner et al., 2001). |
