The Changes in Matrix Metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1), Tissue Inhibitor of Metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1) and Oxidized LDL Levels During the First 48 Hours in Patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome
Objective: The synthesis of matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) which is claimed to cause early mortal damage during the first moments of coronary reperfusion, is reported to be induced in-vitro by oxidized low density lipoprotein (LDL). The in- vivo changes in MMP-1, it's...
