OBJECTIVES: Matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9), able to degrade type IV collagen, plays a key role in inflammatory cell migration as well as in the destructive behaviour of cholesteatoma. The aim of our study was to compare the expression of MMP-9 and TIMP-1 in cholesteatoma tissue and in the concen

CONCLUSIONS: The nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome plays an important role in the pathogenesis of middle ear diseases. Modulation of inflammasome-mediated inflammation may be a novel therapeutic strategy for cholesteatoma and chronic otitis media.

International Journal of Pediatric Otorhinolaryngology 76(1), 76-81, 2012-01
… Objectives: To investigate the pathogenesis of one of the most troublesome conditions following ear surgery, a middle-ear cavity problem. … Methods: Keratinocyte growth factor (KGF) and its receptor (KGFR), the ratio of proliferating epithelial cells using Ki-67, and the extent of infiltration of B cells and T cells were examined immunohistochemically in 10 ears with a cavity problem, 70 ears with cholesteatoma and 8 ears with normal skin at the retroauricular incision. …
