CK2alpha-protein phosphatase 2A molecular complex: possible interaction with the MAP kinase pathway.

abstract：:Increased matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) levels are involved in vascular remodeling of hypertension. In this study, we hypothesized that doxycycline (a MMP inhibitor) could exert antioxidant effects, reverse establish vascular remodeling, and lower blood pressure in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR).
