Inhibition of matrix metalloproteinase-9 by a barbiturate-nitrate hybrid ameliorates dextran sulphate sodium-induced colitis: effect on inflammation-related genes.
2017
Background and Purpose
Matrix metalloproteinase‐9 (MMP‐9) is up‐regulated in ulcerative colitis and implicated in the pathology of the disease. In this study, we have examined the effects of a barbiturate‐based MMP inhibitor incorporating a nitric oxide donor/mimetic group (dinitrate‐barbiturate) on the intestinal injury induced by dextran sulphate sodium (DSS).
