Abstract:
Objective To investigate the relationship between the expression of matrix metalloproteinase(MMP)-2,MMP-9,MMP-13 and disease activity in pemphigus patients.Methods A total of 60 pemphigus patients treated in the dermatology department of the hospital from January 2021 to January 2023 were select-ed as the study group,and another 60 healthy volunteers who underwent physical examination in the same pe-riod were recruited as the control group.The levels of MMP-2,MMP-9 and MMP-13 in serum and the expres-sion of MMP-2,MMP-9 and MMP-13 in peripheral blood mononuclear cells were compared between the two groups,and the relationship between the expression of MMP-2,MMP-9 and MMP-13 in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of patients with pemphigus was analyzed.Pemphigus patients were divided into acute phase group(n=22),chronic phase group(n=23)and stable phase group(n=15)according to their disease activi-ty.The expression of MMP-2,MMP-9 and MMP-13 in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of the three groups were compared,as well as the correlation between the three indexes and disease activity.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was plotted for analysis.Results The levels of MMP-2,MMP-9 and MMP-13 in serum and the expression of MMP-2,MMP-9 and MMP-13 in peripheral blood mononuclear cells in the study group were higher than those in the control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05).The expression of MMP-2,MMP-9 and MMP-13 in peripheral blood mononuclear cells in severe patients were higher than those in moderate and mild patients,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).The expression of MMP-2,MMP-9 and MMP-13 and disease activity scores of mononuclear cells in acute attack group were higher than those in chronic attack group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).The ex-pression of MMP-2,MMP-9 and MMP-13 in peripheral blood mononuclear cells were positively correlated with disease activity(rMMP-2=0.545,rMMP-9=0.592,rMMP-13=0.580,P<0.05).ROC curve analysis showed that compared with the single diagnostic efficacy of MMP-2,MMP-9 and MMP-13 expression in peripheral blood mononuclear cells,the three combined diagnostic efficacy was better.Conclusion The expression of MMP-2,MMP-9 and MMP-13 in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of pemphigus patients is related to the disease activity,and these three indicators can be used as reference indicators for the diagnosis of pemphigus disease activity.
