From: Activities of cardiac tissue matrix metalloproteinases 2 and 9 are reduced by remote ischemic preconditioning in cardiosurgical patients with cardiopulmonary bypass

Figure 3

Correlation of cardiac tissue MMP-2/9 activities and serum cardiac troponin T (cTnT) levels. cTnT concentrations were measured at admission to the intensive care unit (ICU) and were correlated with the activities of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in heart tissue samples obtained before CPB (A, B) and after CPB (C, D). CPB, cardiopulmonary bypass; cTnT, cardiac troponin T.
