Expression of matrix metalloproteinases in cerebral amyloid angiopathy-a systematic review
Key Points
Expression of matrix metalloproteinases is significantly linked to cerebral amyloid angiopathy and its effects on vascular health, indicating a possible role in pathology.
Key findings highlight various matrix metalloproteinases with differential expression patterns associated with cerebral amyloid angiopathy.
Systematic review methodology focused on synthesizing results from previously published studies, consolidating knowledge on matrix metalloproteinases in this condition.
Compelling evidence supports the need for further exploration of matrix metalloproteinases' roles in vascular conditions linked to cognitive decline.
