Popis: | In 78 patients undergoing a total hip replacement we examined the production of matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) by the fibroblasts from the connective tissue of the acetabulum; we then correlated these findings with clinical and radiological characteristics of the same patients. In 53 patients only MMP-2 was produced; in 15 cases MMP-1, -2 and -3 were present; and in 10 cases not only MMP-1, -2, -3 but also MMP-9. Significant differences among the clinical and radiological parameters were found in the 3 subsets. A positive correlation between the production of MMP-9 and a rapid destruction of the hip joint was found. |
