Abstract

The article discusses a study that evaluated the association of high peripheral neutrophil counts, higher tissue inhibitor metalloproteinase-4 (TIMP-4) and heightened heme-oxygenase-1 (HO-1) plasma levels with comorbidities of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) in Tuberculosis (TB) endemic nations. Performed in plasma samples were cross-sectional analyses on levels of TIMP, HO-1 as well as chemokines and cytokines. Results showed higher plasma levels of TIMP-4, HO-1 in TB patients with T2DM.
