Type-2 diabetes-induced changes in vascular extracellular matrix gene expression: Relation to vessel size

BACKGROUND: Hyperglycemia-induced changes in vascular wall structure contribute to the pathogenesis of diabetic microvascular and macrovascular complications. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMP), a family of proteolytic enzymes that degrade extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins, are essential for vascular...
