Matrix metalloproteinase-10: a novel biomarker for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis

Abstract: BackgroundMatrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are believed to be involved in the pathogenesis of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), and MMP-7 has been described as a useful biomarker for IPF. However, little is known regarding the significance of MMP-10 as a biomarker for IPF.MethodsThis observational cohort study included 57 patients with IPF. Serum MMPs were comprehensively measured in all patients, and the relationships between these markers and both disease severity and prognosis were evaluated. Bronchoalve… Show more

“…These results are in contrast to prior observations of elevated MMP10 serum levels in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (46). However, no symmetry was observed between serum and cellular data, given that MMP10 mRNA and protein expression was driven to a similar extent in EPC-derived ECs among the 3 patients with isolated PAH and the 3 patients with ILDassociated PH.…”
