Key Metalloproteinases Are Expressed by Specific Cell Types in Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis
1 Oct 2004
Abstract excerpt
Metalloproteinases (MPs) include matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and metalloproteinase-disintegrins (ADAMs). Their physiological inhibitors are tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases (TIMPs). MPs are thought to be mediators of cellular infiltration in the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis and its animal model, experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE). We used real-time RT-PCR to profile the expression of...
