     increased matrix metalloproteinase (mmp) levels are involved in vascular remodeling of hypertension. in this study, we hypothesized that doxycycline (a mmp inhibitor) could exert antioxidant effects, reverse establish vascular remodeling, and lower blood pressure in spontaneously hypertensive rats (shr). shr and wistar–kyoto rats received either doxycycline at 30 mg/kg/day by gavage or vehicle. systolic blood pressure (sbp) was assessed weekly by tail cuff. after 5 weeks of treatment, morphologic changes in the aortic wall were studied in hematoxylin/eosin sections. mmp activity and expression were determined by in situ zymography using dq gelatin and immunofluorescence for mmp-2. dihydroethidium was used to evaluate aortic reactive oxygen species (ros) production by fluorescence microscopy. doxycycline reduced sbp by 25 mmhg. however, the antihypertensive effects were not associated with significant reversal of hypertension-induced vascular hypertrophy. shr showed increased aortic mmp-2 levels which co-localized with higher aortic mmp activity and ros levels, and all those biochemical alterations associated with hypertension were blunted by treatment with doxycycline. these results show that mmp inhibition with doxycycline in shr with established hypertension resulted in antioxidant effects, lower gelatinolytic activity, and antihypertensive effects which were not associated with reversal of hypertension-induced vascular remodeling.
