Prognostic Value of MMP-9 -1562 C/T Gene Polymorphism in Patients With Sepsis

Prognostic Value of MMP-9 -1562 C/T Gene Polymorphism in Patients With Sepsis

Introduction: Matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) plays an important role in the pathophysiology of sepsis. A single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) at position -1562 (C/T) in the MMP-9 gene has been associated with differential MMP-9 expression, being higher when the -1562 T allele is present. We eval...
