Impact of MMP1, MMP2, and MMP3 Gene Variations on Susceptibility to Peyronie's Disease and Clinical Progression.

Abstract excerpt

The aim of this study was to determine the association between matrix metalloproteinase (MMP1, MMP2, and MMP3) gene variations and susceptibility to Peyronie's disease, and to investigate their effects on disease progression. This cross-sectional case-control study included a total of 182 individuals-91 patients with Peyronie's disease and 91 healthy controls. Peripheral venous blood samples (5 mL) were...
