Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) play an important role in modeling and remodeling the extracellular matrix in leiomyomas. Hence, we investigated whether associations exist between leiomyomas and promoter polymorphisms in the MMP-1 and MMP-9 genes in a Japanese population. METHODS: We compared the distribution of polymorphisms in the promoter regions of MMP-1 (-1607 1G/2G) and MMP-9 (-1562 C/T) in 267...
