Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Plasma MMP-9 levels have been shown to predict cardiovascular risk, and a functional substitution C to T at position -1562 in the promoter region of the MMP-9 gene has been associated with the severity of cardiovascular diseases. We examined the association between the C(-1562)T polymorphism and MMP-9 activity in healthy subjects. METHODS: We studied 200 healthy male white volunteers (age range: 20-55...
