P.29 Involvement of Cannabinoid Receptors in Regulation of MMPs, Cell Proliferation and Apoptosis in Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells
Objectives: Cannabinoid receptors CB1R and CB2R are expressed in the vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) and may contribute to vascular remodeling process (O’Sullivan, 2015). This study aimed to investigate the implication of CB1R and CB2R in the regulation of matrix metalloproteases MMP2 and MMP9,...
