AimsMatrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and their tissue inhibitors (TIMPs) are dysregulated in metabolic syndrome (MetS) and associated with atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease (CVD). Previous studies on the association between MMPs/TIMPs and MetS are controversial. We aimed to evaluate circulating MMP-8, MMP-9 and TIMP-1 in a group of MetS individuals and healthy controls to find the potential marker associated with MetS and its components.Methods243 MetS individuals participated in a nested case–control design, of whom 63 were excluded (study subjects for analysis n = 180; 87 MetS cases, 93 controls). We employed the International Diabetes Federation criteria using national waist circumference cutoffs for case definition. Anthropometric and biochemical measurements were done using standard methods.ResultsPlasma MMP-8, TIMP-1, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), highly sensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) and MMP-8/TIMP-1 ratio were significantly higher in MetS cases (P for all < 0.05). Each component of MetS except raised fasting plasma glucose positively correlated with MMP-8 and numbers of MetS components increased with higher MMP-8. In all regression models, MMP-8 was a significant predictor of MetS and in the final model the relationship persisted even after adjusting for pro-inflammatory cytokines hs-CRP and TNF-α (odds ratio = 6.008, 95% confidence interval: 1.612–22.389, P = 0.008).ConclusionStrong associations of MMP-8 with components of MetS in univariate, bivariate and multivariate models suggest plasma MMP-8 as a potential cardiometabolic risk marker for MetS. Higher MMP-8 in MetS is possibly mediated through mechanisms both dependent and independent of chronic low grade inflammation.
