Inhibition of matrix metalloproteinase‐9 by a barbiturate‐nitrate hybrid ameliorates dextran sulphate sodium‐induced colitis: effect on inflammation‐related genes

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Matrix metalloproteinase‐9 (MMP‐9) is up‐regulated in ulcerative colitis and implicated in the pathology of the disease. In this study, we have examined the effects of a barbiturate‐based MMP inhibitor incorporating a nitric oxide donor/mimetic group (dinitrate‐barbiturate) o...
