Abstract

Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) contribute to the progression of left ventricular (LV) dysfunction and remodeling associated with heart failure (HF). The present study examined the long-term effects of a selective MMP inhibitor PG-530742 (PG) on the progression of LV dysfunction and remodeling in dogs with HF. Chronic HF [LV ejection fraction (LVEF),
