Cardiac transgenic matrix metalloproteinase-2 expression induces myxomatous valve degeneration: a potential model of mitral valve prolapse disease

INTRODUCTION: Myxomatous mitral valve “degeneration” with prolapse (MVP) is the most frequent form of nonischemic mitral valve disease. In myxomatous valves, interstitial cells express extracellular matrix-degrading enzymes and it has been postulated that matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) contribute...
