Background.
Arterial hypertension (HT) is a serious and prevalent epidemiological factor in the development of coronary artery disease (CAD).
Metalloproteinases (MMPs), especially MMP-2 and MMP-9, and their natural endogenous tissue inhibitors (TIMPs) are involved in the pathogenesis of HT and its complications.
MMPs are also involved in the development of diabetes (DM), a risk factor for CAD.
The aim of the study was to explore the influence of CAD, HT, and DM on changes in plasma levels of MMP-2 and MMP-9 and their inhibitor TIMP-4.
Methods and Results.
The study involved 70 patients with stable CAD admitted for coronary angiography and 15 healthy subjects.
Whole blood samples were collected prior to angiography.
MMP-2, MMP-9, and TIMP-4 levels in plasma were estimated using ELISA tests.
CAD patients showed a significantly increased level of TIMP-4 and decreased level of MMP-2 in comparison to healthy controls (p=0.011 and p=0.037, respectively).
Concentration of MMP-2, MMP-9, and TIMP-4 did not differ in the group with and without hypertension.
Patients with DM presented higher MMP-2 level than patients without DM (p<0.001).
Multiple regression analysis of the influence of independent variables such as CAD stage, DM, and HT on MMP-2, MMP-9, and TIMP-4 showed that only DM was independently associated with a higher level of MMP-2 (β = 0.42, R2 = 0.17, p<0.001).
Conclusion.
Data showed that patients with CAD presented higher TIMP-4 and lower MMP-2 concentration regardless of HT and DM.
HT had no effect on MMP-2, MMP-9, and TIMP-4 levels in serum.
DM was independently associated with higher MMP-2 concentration; however, co-occurrence of CAD and DM was associated with the balance in the MMP-2 level.
Concentration of MMP-9 did not change significantly in any of the analysed groups.
