简要总结

Tubercular pleuraleffusion can lead to pleural thickening that can result in permanentrestriction defect and even thoracic skeletal deformity. The initiation andmaintenance of such thickening possibly involves the participation of matrixmetalloproteinase, a class of enzyme that plays an integral role in thedevelopment of different tissue reactions to insults. Inhibition of matrixmetalloproteinases may help to prevent or treat pleural thickening.
