Matrix metalloproteinase inhibition in a murine model of cavitary tuberculosis paradoxically worsens pathology
Matrix metalloproteinase inhibition in a murine model of cavitary tuberculosis paradoxically worsens pathology
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) degrade extracellular matrix and are implicated in tuberculosis (TB) pathogenesis and cavitation. In particular, MMP-7 is induced by hypoxia and highly expressed around pulmonary cavities of Mycobacterium tuberculosis-infected C3HeB/FeJ mice. In this study, we evaluated whether administration of cipemastat, an orally available potent inhibitor of MMP-7, could reduce pulmonary cavitation in M. tuberculosis-infected C3HeB/FeJ mice. We demonstrate that compared to untreated controls, cipemastat treatment paradoxically increases the frequency of cavitation (32% versus 7%; P = 0.029), immunopathology andmortality. Further studies are needed to understand the role of MMP inhibitors as adjunctive treatments for pulmonary TB.

Abstract
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) degrade extracellular matrix and are implicated in tuberculosis (TB) pathogenesis and cavitation. In particular, MMP-7 is induced by hypoxia and highly expressed around pulmonary cavities of Mycobacterium tuberculosis-infected C3HeB/FeJ mice. In this study, we evaluated whether administration of cipemastat, an orally available potent inhibitor of MMP-7, could reduce pulmonary cavitation in M. tuberculosis-infected C3HeB/FeJ mice. We demonstrate that compared to untreated controls, cipemastat treatment paradoxically increases the frequency of cavitation (32% versus 7%; P = 0.029), immunopathology andmortality. Further studies are needed to understand the role of MMP inhibitors as adjunctive treatments for pulmonary TB.
