“…Positive correlation observed between MMP-1 and CRP levels supported this hypothesis (Supplementary Table 2 ). Similar results were obtained 24 and discussed in our previous studies 22 , 24 . On the other hand, studies performed on relatively small numbers of participants (n = 54–102) showed that there is no difference in MMP-1 levels between obese and non-obese people 25 , 26 .…”

“…The infiltrating inflammatory cells and VSMCs could secrete various mediators including PGE 2 . PGE 2 increases the production of MMPs [30], which are suggested to play a prominent role in the degradation of the vascular wall as mentioned previously. Furthermore, the increased synthesis of PGE 2 in aneurysmal tissue may then recruit additional inflammatory cells and promote innate and adaptive immune responses, leading to continued aneurysmal degeneration.…”

“…Increased PGE-2 levels have been associated with several chronic diseases. For instance, PGE-2 was elevated in women with obesity [ 380 ], and especially in patients with cancer, including colorectal [ 381 ] and ovarian cancer [ 382 ]. Also T2D patients showed elevated concentrations [ 383 ], and its contribution to a variety of neurological disorders has been proposed [ 384 ].…”
