Value of metalloproteinases in predicting COPD in heavy urban smokers
BACKGROUND: Emphysema in asymptomatic heavy smokers can be detected during CT-scan screening for lung cancer. Metalloproteinases (MMPs) have been found to play a role in the pathogenesis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and to possibly serve as biomarkers for emphysema. METHODS: The NYU Lung...
