Matrix Metalloproteinases: Pathophysiologic Implications and Potential Therapeutic Targets in Cardiovascular Disease

Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a family of zinc-dependent endopeptidases that play a crucial role in extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling and are implicated in the pathogenesis of various cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). Their dysregulation has been linked to atherosclerosis, myocardial infarc...
