Research paper thumbnail of M atrix metalloproteinase-2 mediates cytokine-induced myocardial contractile dysfunction

As matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) can be activated by peroxynitrite and can proteolytically cleave troponin I in hearts, we determined whether this occurs in cytokine-induced myocardial dysfunction. Methods: Isolated working rat hearts were perfused with buffer containing interleukin-1 b, interferon-g,
