Abstract
Immunohistochemical detection of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) 2 and 9 was carried out in the myocardium of the left ventricle of preterm born (21 and 21.5 days of pregnancy) and full-term (22 days of pregnancy) rats on days 42, 56, and 180 of the postnatal period of ontogenesis. The intensity of immunopositive staining was assessed semiquantitatively. Preterm birth leads to increased immunopositive reaction intensity to MMP-2 and MMP-9 in the wall of the left ventricle of the rat heart. An increase in the intensity of the positive reaction to MMP-2 in the left ventricle of the heart of rats is observed the earlier, the greater the degree of prematurity. The intensity of the positive reaction to MMP-9 in the left ventricle of the heart of male rats increases with increasing degree of prematurity. An increase in the intensity of the positive reaction to MMP-2 and MMP-9 in the wall of the left ventricle of female rats due to preterm birth is determined exclusively in animals born on the 21st day of pregnancy, that is, with a greater degree of prematurity.
期刊介绍:
The journal publishes papers on vast aspects of cell research, including morphology, biochemistry, biophysics, genetics, molecular biology, immunology. The journal accepts original experimental studies, theoretical articles suggesting novel principles and approaches, presentations of new hypotheses, reviews highlighting major developments in cell biology, discussions. The main objective of the journal is to provide a competent representation and integration of research made on cells (animal and plant cells, both in vivo and in cell culture) offering insight into the structure and functions of live cells as a whole. Characteristically, the journal publishes articles on biology of free-living and parasitic protists, which, unlike Metazoa, are eukaryotic organisms at the cellular level of organization.
