The matrix metalloproteinase inhibitor RS-130830 attenuates brain injury in experimental pneumococcal meningitis
BACKGROUND: Pneumococcal meningitis (PM) is characterized by high mortality and morbidity including long-term neurofunctional deficits. Neuropathological correlates of these sequelae are apoptosis in the hippocampal dentate gyrus and necrosis in the cortex. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) play a cr...
