Protection of the Transplant Kidney from Preservation Injury by Inhibition of Matrix Metalloproteinases.
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), particularly MMP-2 and MMP-9, play an important role in ischemic injury to the heart, yet it is not known if these MMPs are involved in the injury that occurs to the transplant kidney. We therefore studied the pharmacologic protection of transplant kidneys during ma...
