Single-nucleotide polymorphisms of MMP2 in MMP/TIMP pathways associated with the risk of alcohol-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head in Chinese males: A case–control study

The proportion of alcohol-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) in all ONFH patients was 30.7%, with males prevailing among the ONFH patients in mainland China (70.1%). Matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP2), a member of the MMP gene family, encodes the enzyme MMP2, which can promote osteoclas...
