Arterial stiffness is a marker of cardiovascular disease and independent predictor of cardiovascular risk. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are zinc-dependent endopeptidases that degrade components of the extracellular matrix, which is an important determinant of the arterial elastic properties. This study sought to investigate the association between MMP-2 and MMP-9 (gelatinase A and B respectively) and arterial stiffness in healthy human subjects.
