Regulation of MMP-2 by IL-8 in Vascular Endothelial Cells: Probable Mechanism for Endothelial Dysfunction in Women with Preeclampsia
Endothelial dysfunction (ED) in preeclampsia (PE) results from the convergence of oxidative stress, inflammation, and alterations in extracellular matrix components, affecting vascular tone and permeability. The molecular network leading to ED includes IL-8 and MMP-2. In vitro, IL-8 regulates the co...
