Extracellular matrix plays an important role in maintaining organic structure and function, cellular proliferation and differentiation of normal aorta. Extracellular matrix proteolysis and remodeling of aortic wall resulting from degradation of matrix proteins characterize abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). Matrix metalloproteinase and its inhibitor have been implicated as potentially important in this disease, and MMP/TIMP ratios may be the key of AAA formation and development. [
