## Abstract Fibroblasts are responsible in large part for production, organization, and turnover of the extracellular matrix (ECM), thereby regulating the fibrotic content of the heart. Excessive fibrosis, which has been associated with certain forms of hemodynamic overload such as hypertension, is
## Abstract Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are thought to play an important role in skeletal muscle cell growth and differentiation. In view of the MMP inducing function of EMMPRIN/CD147, its role in myogenic cell differentiation was investigated. EMMPRIN level increased during differentiation of
