    Abstract Tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) are a conserved family of proteins that were originally identified as cytokine-like erythroid growth factors. Subsequently, TIMPs were characterized as endogenous inhibitors of matrixin proteinases. These proteinases are the primary mediators of extracellular matrix turnover in pathologic conditions, such as cancer invasion and metastasis. Thus, TIMPs were immediately recognized as important regulators of tissue homeostasis. However, TIMPs also demonstrate unique biological activities that are independent of metalloproteinase regulation. Although often overlooked, these non-protease-mediated TIMP functions demonstrate a variety of direct cellular effects of potential therapeutic value. TIMP2 is the most abundantly expressed TIMP family member, and ongoing studies show that its tumor suppressor activity extends beyond protease inhibition to include direct modulation of tumor, endothelial, and fibroblast cellular responses in the tumor microenvironment. Recent data suggest that TIMP2 can suppress both primary tumor growth and metastatic niche formation. TIMP2 directly interacts with cellular receptors and matrisome elements to modulate cell signaling pathways that result in reduced proliferation and migration of neoplastic, endothelial, and fibroblast cell populations. These effects result in enhanced cell adhesion and focal contact formation while reducing tumor and endothelial proliferation, migration, and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transitions. These findings are consistent with TIMP2 homeostatic functions beyond simple inhibition of metalloprotease activity. This review examines the ongoing evolution of TIMP2 function, future perspectives in TIMP research, and the therapeutic potential of TIMP2.

    Abstract Radiofrequency (RF) catheter ablation has long been an important therapy for ventricular tachycardia and frequent symptomatic premature ventricular beats and nonsustained arrhythmias when antiarrhythmic drugs fail to suppress the arrhythmias. It is increasingly used in preference to antiarrhythmic drugs, sparing the patient adverse effects of drugs. Success of ablation varies with the underlying heart disease and type of arrhythmia: very effective for patients without structural heart disease, less effective in structural heart disease. Failure occurs when a target for ablation cannot be identified or ablation lesions fail to reach and abolish the arrhythmia substrate that may be extensive, intramural, or subepicardial in location. Approaches to improving ablation lesion creation are modifications to RF ablation and emerging investigational techniques. Easily- implemented modifications to RF methods include manipulating the size and location of the cutaneous dispersive electrode, increasing duration of RF delivery, and use of lower-tonicity catheter irrigation (usually 0.45% saline). When catheters can be placed on either side of culprit substrate, RF can be delivered in a bipolar or simultaneous unipolar configuration that can be successful. Catheters with extendable and retractable irrigated needles for delivery of RF are under investigation in clinical trials. Cryoablation is potentially useful with specific situations in which maintaining contact is difficult. Transvascular ethanol ablation and stereotactic radioablation have both shown promise for arrhythmias that fail other ablation strategies. Although substantial clinical progress has been achieved, further improvement is clearly needed. With ability to increase ablation lesion size, continued careful evaluation of safety, which has been excellent for standard RF ablation, remains important.
