Matrix metalloproteinase-9 increases and Interleukin-10 reduces with increase in body mass index in polycystic ovary syndrome: A cross-sectional study

Abstract: Background: Obesity, inflammation and alterations in matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) and nitric oxide (NO) levels are involved in the development of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Objective: To investigate the relationship of MMP-9, NO and interleukin-10 (IL-10) with the increase in body mass index (BMI) in women with PCOS. Materials and Methods: Sixty two infertile PCOS women were included in the study. Serum levels of NO, IL-10 and MMP-9 were assessed in the women with increase in BMI. … Show more

“…2 a). It is well documented that PCOS patients exhibit significantly lower serum levels of IL-10 compared to healthy counterparts [ 42 , 65 , 66 ]. This triggered us to focus on this important immune-suppressive cytokine.…”

“…Matrix metalloproteinase-9(MMP9) may play an essential role in PCOS and NAFLD.A study [30] proves that PCOS patients have elevated serum concentrations of MMP-2 and MMP-9.Another [31]proves that MMP9 may be involved in the pathogenesis of PCOS and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) play vital roles in follicular development.A recent study [32]makes a rat model of PCOS and proves that metformin treatment by decreasing the expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 alleviates PCOS.Another [33]proves that MMP-9 levels are increased in obese PCOS women. Moreover,study [34]made a rodent model of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis present that MMP-9 activity is negatively correlates with adiponectin-which can protect from in ammation and brosis in metabolic liver disease.Besides,study [35]proves that MMP-9 de ciency enhances regeneration of steatotic livers.Study [36]proves that MMP9 levels can act as predictive factors for poor prognosis of nonalcoholic fatty liver patients .…”

“…The MMP-9 has been linked with several disorders other than endometriosis such as ovarian carcinoma [14], breast cancer [15], lung cancer [16], endometrial cancer [17], cervical cancer [18], neurodegenerative/ neural diseases [19], hypertensive disorder [20], autoimmune disorder [21], Cardiovascular diseases [22], osteoporosis [23], Arthritis such as rheumatoid arthritis and focal brain ischemia, Pregnancyassociated malaria (Placental malaria), Poly Cystic Ovary Syndrome [24], Uterine fibroids [25]. Also, high levels of MMP-9 were seen in the Covid-19 patients with respiratory failure [26].…”
