Figure 1.
Relative tissue contents of pro-MMP-2 and pro-MMP-9 following middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCA:O) in the nonhuman primate striatum and their association with hemorrhagic transformation in situ. Significantly increased pro-MMP-9 production is seen in samples with hemorrhage (solid bars), but not in samples without hemorrhage (hatched bars). No correlation was observed for pro-MMP-2 (n = 27 subjects).2
