Figure 4From: Pulsatile ex vivo perfusion of human saphenous vein grafts under controlled pressure conditions increases MMP-2 expression Zymographic analysis of MMP-2 activity. A Representative results are shown for HSVGs perfused with venous or arterial pressure. Controls represent MMP-2 activity of unperfused tissue taken from the same vein (n = 5 for each condition). B Quantitative analysis of MMP-2 gelatinolytic activity. The activity in unperfused veins was arbitrarily set to 1.Back to article page
