- Titel:
- The Extracellular Matrix Metalloproteinase Inducer (EMMPRIN, CD147) - a potential novel target in atherothrombosis prevention?
- Abstract:
- The immunoglobulin superfamily member EMMPRIN (CD147) plays an important role in a number of organ systems, including the cardiovascular system. Here we review the contemporary understanding of EMMPRIN and EMMPRIN-associated sequelae in the course of atherosclerosis. A significant body of data documents the pivotal role of EMMPRIN in the complex processes of atherogenesis, atheroprogression, and acute atherosclerothrombosis, a role that goes beyond that of a mere marker of inflammation.
