Neutrophils and lymphocytes in relation to MMP-8 and MMP-9 levels in pulmonary tuberculosis and HIV co-infection

Neutrophils and lymphocytes in relation to MMP-8 and MMP-9 levels in pulmonary tuberculosis and HIV co-infection

Background: Matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) activity has an important role in lung cavitary formation occurred in pulmonary tuberculosis (TB). Low number and viability of CD4 + T-lymphocytes in patients with TB/HIV co-infection leads to impaired neutrophils production, causing further impaired MMPs p...
