Prolonged Increases in Vein Wall Tension Increase Matrix Metalloproteinases and Decrease Constriction in Rat Vena Cava. Potential Implications in Varicose Veins

BACKGROUND: Increased venous hydrostatic pressure plays a role in the pathogenesis of varicose veins. Increased expression of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) has been identified in varicose veins. Also, we have shown that MMP-2 inhibits venous contraction. However, the relation between venous press...
