Matrix metalloproteinase-2 mediates angiotensin II-induced hypertension
Angiotensin II signals cardiovascular disease through metalloproteinases including MMP-2, MMP-7 and ADAM-17/TACE. We hypothesized that these metalloproteinases regulate each other at the transcriptional level. Further, MMP-2, being a major gelatinase in cardiac and vascular tissue, could mediate ang...
