Therapeutic efficacy of matrix metalloproteinase-12 suppression on neurological recovery after ischemic stroke: Optimal treatment timing and duration

We recently showed that the post-ischemic induction of matrix metalloproteinase-12 (MMP-12) in the brain degrades tight junction proteins, increases MMP-9 and TNFα expression, and contributes to the blood-brain barrier (BBB) disruption, apoptosis, demyelination, and infarct volume development. The o...
