How can you use “gelatinases” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

In patients with inflammatory arthritis the gelatinases are expressed in the synovial membrane, and have been implicated in synovial tissue invasion into adjacent cartilage and bone.
A number of studies have shown that the serum and synovial levels of both gelatinases MMP-2 [ 9, 10] and MMP-9 [ 11, 12, 13] are similarly elevated in RA.
Although the evidence is indirect, these data are consistent with the hypothesis that high levels of activated synovial gelatinases reflect augmented synovial invasiveness; these observations are similar to those made in the context of invasive cancers [ 16].
We also examined the synovial expression of the gelatinases by immunohistology, as well as their serum levels in order to determine whether these indices may predict erosions in RA patients.
Few studies have evaluated the levels of active MMPs in situ . Gel zymography has proved to be a sensitive and effective method of detecting the activity of gelatinases in small tissue samples [ 20].
