To investigate the expression and clinical significance of MMP-2, MMP-7, MMP-9, and TIMP-1 in patients with nasal polyposis (NP) and chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS).
Prospective study.
This study involved 54 patients. There were three groups: nasal polyposis group, chronic rhinosinusitis group, and control group. Specimens were collected during endoscopic sinus surgery. Each sample was immunohistochemically examined.
Expression of MMP-2 was found significantly increased in NP, whereas MMP-7 expression was found significantly increased in CRS (P < 0.001). TIMP-1 was significantly high in control group compared to CRS and NP (P < 0.001 and P = 0.002, respectively).
Different regulation type of activation of MMPs has been found in these two diseases. If MMP-2 expression is intense in the mucosa, then this ends with polyp formation; if MMP-7 expression is intense, it ends with CRS or stays as CRS.
研究基质金属蛋白酶-2(MMP-2)、基质金属蛋白酶-7(MMP-7)、基质金属蛋白酶-9(MMP-9)和金属蛋白酶组织抑制因子-1(TIMP-1)在鼻息肉(NP)和慢性鼻-鼻窦炎(CRS)患者中的表达及临床意义。
前瞻性研究。
本研究纳入54例患者。分为三组:鼻息肉组、慢性鼻-鼻窦炎组和对照组。在内镜鼻窦手术期间采集标本。对每个样本进行免疫组织化学检测。
发现MMP-2在NP中的表达显著增加,而MMP-7在CRS中的表达显著增加(P < 0.001)。与CRS和NP相比,TIMP-1在对照组中显著升高(分别为P < 0.001和P = 0.002)。
在这两种疾病中发现了基质金属蛋白酶激活的不同调节类型。如果黏膜中MMP-2表达强烈,则最终形成息肉;如果MMP-7表达强烈,则最终发展为CRS或维持CRS状态。
