斑块破裂是心肌梗死和中风的主要原因。破裂的斑块具有薄的、高度炎症的、缺乏胶原的纤维帽,其中含有升高的蛋白酶,包括金属蛋白酶(MMPs),这可能会削弱斑块帽并促进破裂。另一方面,MMPs促进血管平滑肌细胞的迁移和增殖,这应该会促进纤维帽的稳定性。鉴于MMPs的双重作用,治疗应该选择性地针对有害的MMPs或导致MMPs活性上升到破坏性水平的过程。
Plaque rupture is the main cause of myocardial infarctions and strokes. Ruptured plaques have thin, highly inflamed, and collagen-poor fibrous caps that contain elevated levels of proteases, including metalloproteinases (MMPs), which might weaken plaque caps and promote rupture. On the other hand, MMPs facilitate migration and proliferation vascular smooth muscle cells, which should promote fibrous cap stability. Given the dual effects of MMPs, therapies should selectively target harmful MMPs or the processes that cause MMP activity to rise to destructive levels.
