The role of MMP-9 in integrin-mediated hippocampal cell death after pilocarpine-induced status epilepticus

The role of MMP-9 in integrin-mediated hippocampal cell death after pilocarpine-induced status epilepticus

Recent studies demonstrate that matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) is closely involved in the pathogenesis of epilepsy. This study investigated the role of MMP-9 in hippocampal cell death after pilocarpine-induced status epilepticus (SE). We showed that MMP-9 expression and activity significantly in...
