Angiotensin II signals cardiovascular disease through metalloproteinases including MMP-2, MMP-7 and ADAM-17/TACE. We hypothesized that these metalloproteinases regulate each other at the transcriptional level. Further, MMP-2, being a major gelatinase in cardiac and vascular tissue, could mediate...

Matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP2), also known as gelatinase A or 72 kDa type IV collagenase, is a member of a family of 25 different Zn2+-dependent endopeptidases that cleave a broad range of proteins including extracellular matrix proteins (such as collagens, laminin, fibrillin and aggrecan),...
