Matrix Metalloproteinase-9 in Pneumococcal Meningitis: Activation via an Oxidative Pathway [PDF]
In experimental bacterial meningitis, matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) contribute to brain damage. MMP-9 increases in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) during bacterial meningitis and is associated with the brain damage that is ...
