In Vivo Evidence That the Increase in Matrix Metalloproteinase Activity Occurs Early after Cerebral Ischemia
There is controversy over whether matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are activated during the early therapeutic window following ischemic stroke. Ex vivo, an increase was reported as early as 4 hours, whereas in vivo, no increase was found until 24 hours postischemia. We used fluorescence diffuse opti...
