Monocrotaline causes depolymerization of F-actin in sinusoidal endothelial cells, which leads to increased expression of metalloproteinase-9 and matrix metalloproteinase-2 by sinusoidal endothelial cells. Inhibition of matrix metalloproteinase-9 and matrix metalloproteinase-2 prevents the development of sinusoidal obstruction syndrome, establishing that matrix metalloproteinase inhibitors may be a therapeutically viable strategy for prevention.
