Data have been accumulating that indicate that matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) gene polymorphisms contribute to inter-individual differences in susceptibility to and outcome of cardiovascular disease. This is currently best exemplified by the MMP3 gene 5A/6A polymorphism which has an effect on MMP3 expression and has been shown to be associated with coronary stenosis, myocardial infarction, coronary artery...
