Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are involved in the remodeling of the extracellular matrix in the arterial wall. Collagen I is associated with vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) migration and monocyte differentiation. MMP-8 is expressed in atherosclerotic plaque and preferentially cle...
