Dynamic changes of serum matrix metalloproteinases and tissue inhibitors in Kawasaki disease: implications for coronary artery lesions persistence

Abstract Background The mechanism of coronary artery lesions (CALs) persistence in Kawasaki disease (KD) remains unclear. The study aimed to investigate the serum dynamic changes of matrix metalloproteinases (MPPs) and tissue inhibitors (TIMPs) in children with CALs caused by KD, and explore their c...
