Gelatinase enzymes can be found in a number of eukaryotes, including mammals, and birds; bacteria including Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Serratia marcescens), and fungi, but may have variations among species based on identification and function of the gelatinase type.
Gelatinase B plays a central role in tumor progression, from angiogenesis, to stromal remodeling, and ultimately metastasis. [27] However, because of its physiologic function, it may be difficult to leverage Gelatinase B inhibition into cancer therapy modalities.
72 kDa type IV collagenase also known as matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) and gelatinase A is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the MMP2 gene. [5] The MMP2 gene is located on chromosome 16 at position 12.2.
Lipocalin-2 (LCN2), also known as oncogene 24p3 or neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), is a protein that in humans is encoded by the LCN2 gene. [ 5 ] [ 6 ] [ 7 ] NGAL is involved in innate immunity by sequestering iron and preventing its use by bacteria , thus limiting their growth. [ 8 ]
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), also known as matrix metallopeptidases or matrixins, are metalloproteinases that are calcium-dependent zinc-containing endopeptidases; [1] other family members are adamalysins, serralysins, and astacins.

The apex of the posterior grey column, one of the three grey columns of the spinal cord, is capped by a V-shaped or crescentic mass of translucent, gelatinous neuroglia, termed the substantia gelatinosa of Rolando (or SGR) (or gelatinous substance of posterior horn of spinal cord), which contains both neuroglia cells, and small neurons.
Aeromonas hydrophila colonies on the blood agar.. Aeromonas hydrophila is a heterotrophic, Gram-negative, rod-shaped bacterium mainly found in areas with a warm climate.This bacterium can be found in fresh or brackish water.
