Background

Endogenous inhibitors of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) called tissue inhibitors of matrix metalloproteinases (TIMPs) form a family of four members,TIMP1-4. Although possessing many similarities, TIMPs show several structural and biochemical differences, and their expression patterns differ. TIMP4 is characterized by being primarily restricted to cardiovascular structures. Experimental studies have suggested a role for TIMP4 in cardiovascular disorders exhibiting an inflammatory component. Overexpression of TIMP4 has been observed within the arterial wall in rats after a balloon injury. TIMP4 has been shown to suppress vascular smooth muscle cell migration and induce cell apoptosis and to inhibit capillary endothelial cell migration.
