Urine matrix metalloproteinases and their extracellular inducer EMMPRIN in children with chronic kidney disease

Abstract: Background: Transforming growth factor (TGF)beta1 and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) play an essential role in CKD-related tissue remodeling. However, there are no data on urine MMPs and their extracellular inducer EMMPRIN in CKD patients. The aim of study was to assess the concentrations of MMP-2, MMP-7, MMP-9, EMMPRIN and TGFbeta1 in serum and urine of CKD children and to analyze the potential relations between those parameters. Methods: Forty-one pre-dialysis CKD children and 23 age-matched controls were … Show more

“…In children with HSN, urinary MMP-9 levels are found significantly higher in comparison to controls and patients with just Henoch-Schönlein purpura [67]. In another study in children with CKD, urinary MMP-9 levels were significantly higher in comparison to controls, though, despite that, this study was not able to prospectively show a correlation of this finding with progressive CKD [68]. Moreover, in a study of patients with type 2 diabetes, urinary MMP-9 was significantly increased in both non-and albuminuric patients in comparison to normal controls.…”

“…Some comorbid conditions other than diabetes mellitus such as renal scars, nephrotic syndrome, focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, pancreatic cancer and chronic kidney failure may also affect urine MMP2 and MMP9, TIMP1 and TIMP2 and TGF-β1 concentrations (28,29,30,31,32,33). However, our diabetic patients did not have any known comorbid disorders.…”

“…Moreover, elevated urinary levels of MMP-7 have been reported in patients with various kidney diseases compared to healthy controls and correlated well with renal fibrosis scores. Therefore, MMP-7 has been proposed as a putative urinary biomarker of kidney fibrosis in CKD and possible mediator of fibrotic events 41 , 42 . Along these lines, peptides that we detected and presumably originated from MMP-7 activity belong to cleaved alpha-1-antitrypsin (inhibitor of the following proteases: trypsin, chymotrypsin, and plasminogen activator) and fibrinogen alpha chain (monomers of which form the fibrotic tissue) 41 .…”
