... Elevation of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9 is associated with plaque rupture and acute myocardial infarction (AMI). As the extracellular matrix (ECM) is involved in wound repair, we aimed to investigate whether levels of MMP-9, its inhibitor TIMP-1 and the inducer EMMPRIN are associated with infa ...
