Glucocorticoid induction of Kv1.5 K+ channel gene expression in ventricle of rat heart.

abstract：:Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) include most major constituents of the arterial wall as substrates. A common promotor polymorphism (5A/6A) is associated with differences in MMP-3 (stromelysin-1) activity, and associations with certain forms of vascular disease have been shown. This study investigated whether the MMP-...
