Figure 5: Effects of different concentrations of Hcy on the activity of MMP-2. VECs were treated with Hcy at different concentration for 48 hr, the MMP-2 activity was examined by gelatin zymography assay. ±s, n=5, * P< 0.05, **P< 0.01 vs. control (0 μmol/L Hcy); and P< 0.01 vs. 50 μmol/L Hcy; #P<0.01 vs. 100 μmol/L Hcy.
