Arterial Elastase Activity After Balloon Angioplasty and Effects of Elafin, an Elastase Inhibitor

Increased proteolytic activity may be a factor in intimal hyperplasia after balloon angioplasty (BA). The objectives of this study were to assess elastase activity after BA in a rabbit arterial double-injury model and the effects of elastase inhibition. Elastase activity increased immediately after...
