Elastin Degradation and Calcification in an Abdominal Aorta Injury Model: Role of Matrix Metalloproteinases

BACKGROUND: Elastin calcification is a widespread feature of vascular pathology, and circumstantial evidence exists for a correlation between elastin degradation and calcification. We hypothesized that matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)–mediated vascular remodeling plays a significant role in elastin ca...
