The aim of this study was to examine Matrix metalloproteinases levels in neonatal bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and its relationship with chronic lung disease
Abstract:
AIM: Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) -9 and -2 degrade type-IV collagen, a major constituent of lung basement membrane, and may have a role in the pathogenesis of neonatal chronic lung disease (CLD). We determined factors influencing MMP levels in neonatal bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid to establish whether an imbalance between MMP and its inhibitor could be implicated in CLD. more...
