Role of matrix metalloproteinases in apoptosis after transient focal cerebral ischemia in rats and mice

The involvement of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) in cerebral ischemia‐induced apoptosis was investigated in a model of transient focal cerebral ischemia in rats treated intracerebroventricularly (i.c.v.) with 4‐((3‐(4‐phenoxylphenoxy)propylsulfonyl)methyl)‐tetrahydropyran‐4‐carboxylic acid N‐hydr...

Zusammenfassung:The involvement of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) in cerebral ischemia‐induced apoptosis was investigated in a model of transient focal cerebral ischemia in rats treated intracerebroventricularly (i.c.v.) with 4‐((3‐(4‐phenoxylphenoxy)propylsulfonyl)methyl)‐tetrahydropyran‐4‐carboxylic acid N‐hydroxy amide, a broad spectrum non‐peptidic hydroxamic acid MMP inhibitor, and in MMP‐9‐deficient mice. Our results showed that MMP inhibition reduced DNA fragmentation by 51% (P
