Abstract-Vorschau
Background: Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are inducible zinc-dependent, secreted or cell surface endopeptidases that are centrally involved in extracellular matrix turnover. An imbalance of MMPs and their inhibitors (TIMPs) in the lung was recently suggested to contribute to the pathogenesis of interstitial lung diseases such as Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF). Objective: In the present study we investigated…
