A potential key mechanism in ascending aortic aneurysm development: Detection of a linear relationship between MMP-14/TIMP-2 ratio and active MMP-2

OBJECTIVES: Elevated matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) tissue levels have been associated with ascending thoracic aortic aneurysm (aTAA). As MMP-2 activation is controlled by interactions among matrix metalloproteinase-14 (MMP-14), a tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-2 (TIMP-2) and Pro-MMP-2 i...
