Reappraisal of Acne vulgaris Pathogenesis: The Role of TIMP-2

2025-07-23

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p> Background A persistent inflammatory condition affecting the pilosebaceous unit is acne vulgaris. An endogenic inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) that has been linked to the control of MMP-2 proteolytic activity is a tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-2 (TIMP-2). This work is designed to evaluate serum and gene expression levels of TIMP-2 in cases with acne vulgaris co...
