pubmed:abstractText |
Left ventricular (LV) dilation and myocardial remodelling are hallmarks of heart failure in idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). Interstitial collagen is essential for LV integrity and function while degradation of collagen by collagenases, especially matrix-metalloproteinases (MMPs), are suggested to contribute to ventricular dilation. In the present study, serological markers of collagen metabolism were investigated.
