“…The reason for this difference remains to be elucidated, but it is possible that much of the circulating MMP-12 in subjects with diabetes mellitus originates from other tissues than atherosclerotic lesions. In line with the present findings, Jguirim-Souissi and coworkers 24 observed increased plasma levels of MMP-12 patients with CVD as compared with healthy controls. They were, however, unable to demonstrate a significant correlation between MMP-12 levels and the severity of coronary disease, but this could be because of the relative low number of subjects studied (n=34).…”

“…31 It remains to be clarified whether the present findings are a reflection of this. In contrast to some previous studies, 24,32 we did not find lower MMP levels in subjects treated with statins. This may be explained by the fact that patients treated with statins had more CVD and that this may have counteracted any MMP-lower effect of statin treatment.…”

“…One of these proteins is tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases 1 (TIMP-1), which is a 25 kDa glycoprotein that inhibits most of the matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). TIMP-1 has been proposed as an important plasma biomarker in patients with colorectal cancer [3,4], breast cancer [5,6], lung cancer [7][8][9], ovarian cancer [10], cardiovascular diseases [11][12][13][14] and types 1 and 2 diabetes [15][16][17][18].…”

“…Elevated TIMP-1 levels have also been shown to predict worse outcome in breast cancer patients [7] . Furthermore, TIMP-1 plasma levels seem to play an important role in metabolic disorders, such as diabetes and adiposity [8][9][10] , as well as in patients with cardiac disease [11][12][13][14][15] and sepsis [16] . In addition to these promising investigations, some authors have presented results indicating that TIMP-1 levels differ depending on pre-and perianalytical conditions [17][18][19][20][21][22] .…”
