Abstract
Introduction: Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic, devastating, and progressive lung disease that is characterized by fibrosis and respiratory failure. IPF holds high morbidity and poor prognosis and still faces considerable problems of reliable diagnosis and valid prognosis. A growing body of literature have reported changes in the level of various biomarkers in IPF patients, which means that they are expected to become a new tool for the clinical practice of IPF.Areas covered: We reviewed the recent literature about biomarkers and focus on the role they play in IPF. We systematically searched Medline/PubMed through February 2020. Many works of literature have shown that a variety of biomolecules and genomics played multiple roles in the diagnosis or differential diagnosis, prognosis, and indication of acute deterioration of IPF and so on.Expert opinion: Significant advances have been made in the role of biomarkers for IPF these years; however, current data indicate that a single biomarker is unlikely to have a transformative effect on clinical practice; therefore, the combined effect of various biomarkers can be considered to improve the accuracy of diagnosis and prognosis. Further research of biomarkers may provide new insights for the diagnosis, prognosis, and even therapy of IPF.

Semin Arthritis Rheum 2020; 50:480-491.

Abstract
Interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) are complex diseases with various courses where personalized medicine is highly expected. Biomarkers are indicators of physiological, pathological processes or of pharmacological response to therapeutic interventions. They can be used for diagnosis, risk-stratification, prediction and monitoring of treatment response. To better delineate the input and pitfalls of biomarkers in ILDs, we performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of literature in MEDLINE and Embase databases from January 1960 to February 2019. We focused on circulating biomarkers as having the highest generalizability. Overall, 70 studies were included in the review and 20 studies could be included in the meta-analysis. This review highlights that ILD associated with connective tissue diseases (CTD-ILD) and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) share common biomarkers, suggesting common pathophysiological pathways. KL-6 and SP-D, could diagnose lung fibrosis in both IPF and CTD-ILD, with KL-6 having the strongest value (OR: 520.95[110.07-2465.58], p<0.001 in IPF and OR:26.43[7.15-97.68], p<0.001 in CTD-ILD), followed by SPD (OR: 33.81[3.20-357.52], p = 0.003 in IPF and 13.24 [3.84-45.71] in SSc-ILD), MMP7 appeared as interesting for IPF diagnosis (p<0.001), whereas in SSc, CCL18 was associated with ILD diagnosis. Both CCL18 and KL-6 were predictive for the outcomes of ILDs, with higher predictive values for CCL18 in both IPF (OR:10.22[4.72-22.16], p<0.001 and in SSc [2.62[1.71-4.03], p<0.001). However, disease specific biomarkers are lacking and large longitudinal studies are needed before the translational use of the potential biomarkers in clinical practice. With the recent availability of new effective therapies in ILDs, further studies should assess response to treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The need for novel biomarkers that could aid in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) detection, together with the relevance of Matrix Metalloproteases (MMPs) -1, -2, -7, -9 and -10 in lung tumorigenesis, prompted us to assess the diagnostic usefulness of these MMPs and the Tissue Inhibitor of Metalloproteinase (TIMP) -1 in NSCLC patients. METHODS Markers were evaluated in an initial study cohort (19 NSCLC cases and 19 healthy controls). Those that better performed were analyzed in a larger sample including patients with benign lung diseases. Serum MMPs and TIMP-1 were determined by multiplexed immunoassays. Logistic regression was employed for multivariate analysis of biomarker combinations. RESULTS MMPs and TIMP-1 were elevated in the serum of NSCLC patients compared to healthy controls. MMP-1, -7 and -9 performed at best and were further evaluated in the sample including benign pathologies, corroborating the superiority of MMP-9 in NSCLC discrimination, also at early-stage NSCLC. The optimal diagnostic value was obtained with the model including MMP-9, gender, age and smoking history, that demonstrated an AUC of 0.787, 85.54% sensitivity and 64.89% specificity. CONCLUSION Our results suggest that MMP-9 is a potential biomarker for NSCLC diagnosis and its combined measurement with other biomarkers could improve NSCLC detection.

Abstract
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death in the world. It is broadly divided into small cell (SCLC, approx. 15% cases) and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC, approx. 85% cases). The main histological subtypes of NSCLC are adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma, with the presence of specific DNA mutations allowing further molecular stratification. If identified at an early stage, surgical resection of NSCLC offers a favourable prognosis, with published case series reporting 5-year survival rates of up to 70% for small, localized tumours (stage I). However, most patients (approx. 75%) have advanced disease at the time of diagnosis (stage III/IV) and despite significant developments in the oncological management of late stage lung cancer over recent years, survival remains poor. In 2014, the UK Office for National Statistics reported that patients diagnosed with distant metastatic disease (stage IV) had a 1-year survival rate of just 15-19% compared with 81-85% for stage I.

Abstract
AIMS The association between lung cancer and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is well known, but the significance of this association is poorly understood. Bronchiolar honeycomb cysts have been proposed as possible precursors for the development of carcinoma, but limited evidence in support of this hypothesis is available. The aim of this study was to investigate this hypothesis analysing a series of carcinomas arising in IPF by immunohistochemistry. METHODS AND RESULTS Thirty-three lung carcinomas arising in patients with IPF were analysed with a panel of immunohistochemical markers. The antibodies included those against pneumocyte markers [thyroid transcription factor 1 (TTF1), napsin-A, and surfactant protein A], the goblet cell marker mucin 5AC, markers of basal/squamous cell differentiation [cytokeratin (CK) 5/6 and ΔN-p63], and markers related to enteric differentiation (CDX2, mucin 2, CK20, and villin). A series of 100 consecutive lung adenocarcinomas arising in smokers without IPF were investigated as controls. All carcinomas arising in IPF patients were peripherally located on imaging analysis. The diagnoses were: eight squamous cell carcinomas, 20 adenocarcinomas, three small-cell carcinomas (including one composite small-cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma), and two large-cell carcinomas. Among adenocarcinomas, a 'pneumocyte' profile (TTF1/napsin-A/SPA1-triple-positive) was observed in seven of 20 (35% versus 84% in non-IPF controls, P = 0.0001). The remaining 13 adenocarcinomas (65%) showed rare histotypes: four invasive mucinous adenocarcinomas (20% in IPF patients versus 1% in non-IPF controls, P = 0.002), seven tumours (35%) that were characterized by variable expression of markers of enteric differentiation, and two tumours (10%) that showed a peculiar basaloid component. CONCLUSIONS The immunohistochemical characterization of carcinomas arising in IPF patients shows striking divergence from that in non-IPF smokers. The prevalence of rare entities showing bronchiole-related markers is in line with the hypothesis that these tumours arise from transformed small airways in honeycomb lung areas where abnormal bronchiolar proliferation takes place.

Abstract
While evidence for lung cancer screening implementation in Europe is awaited, Rapid Diagnostic Units have been established in many hospitals to accelerate the early diagnosis of lung cancer. We seek to develop an algorithm to detect lung cancer in a symptomatic population attending such unit, based on a sensitive serum marker panel. Serum concentrations of Epidermal Growth Factor, sCD26, Calprotectin, Matrix Metalloproteinases -1, -7, -9, CEA and CYFRA 21.1 were determined in 140 patients with respiratory symptoms (lung cancer and controls with/without benign pathology). Logistic Lasso regression was performed to derive a lung cancer prediction model, and the resulting algorithm was tested in a validation set. A classification rule based on EGF, sCD26, Calprotectin and CEA was established, able to reasonably discriminate lung cancer with 97% sensitivity and 43% specificity in the training set, and 91.7% sensitivity and 45.4% specificity in the validation set. Overall, the panel identified with high sensitivity stage I non-small cell lung cancer (94.7%) and 100% small-cell lung cancers. Our study provides a sensitive 4-marker classification algorithm for lung cancer detection to aid in the management of suspicious lung cancer patients in the context of Rapid Diagnostic Units.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive disease with poor prognosis and variable clinical course. Although matrix metalloproteinase-7 (MMP-7) is emerging as an important IPF biomarker, reproducibility across studies is unclear. We aimed to determine whether a previously reported prognostic threshold for MMP-7 was predictive of mortality in an independent cohort of IPF patients. METHODS MMP-7 concentrations obtained from heparinized plasma samples were determined by ELISA in 97 patients with IPF and 41 healthy controls. The association of the previously published heparin plasma MMP-7 threshold of 12.1 ng/mL with all-cause mortality or transplant-free survival (TFS) was determined, either as an independent biomarker or as part of the modified personal clinical and molecular mortality index (m-PCMI). RESULTS MMP-7 plasma concentrations were significantly higher in IPF patients compared to healthy controls (14.40 ± 6.55 ng/mL vs 6.03 ± 2.51 ng/mL, P < 0.001). The plasma MMP-7 threshold of 12.1 ng/mL was significantly associated with both all-cause mortality and TFS (unadjusted Cox proportional hazard ratio (HR) = 25.85 and 15.49, 95% CI: 10.91-61.23 and 5.41-44.34, respectively, P < 0.001). MMP-7 concentrations, split by 12.1 ng/mL, were significantly (P < 0.05) predictive of mortality and TFS after adjusting for age, gender, smoking and baseline pulmonary function parameters, in a multivariate Cox proportional hazards model. MMP-7 concentrations were negatively correlated with diffusing lung capacity of carbon monoxide (DLCO ) (r = -0.21, P = 0.02), and positively with a mortality risk scoring system (GAP) that combines age, gender, forced vital capacity (FVC) and DLCO (r = 0.32, P = 0.001). CONCLUSION This study confirms that MMP-7 concentrations could be used to accurately predict outcomes across cohorts and centres, when similar collection protocols are applied.

Abstract
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive and devastating lung disorder of unknown origin, with very poor prognosis and no effective treatment. The disease is characterized by abnormal activation of alveolar epithelial cells, which secrete numerous mediators involved in the expansion of the fibroblast population, its differentiation to myofibroblasts, and in the exaggerated accumulation of extracellular matrix provoking the loss of lung architecture. Among the excessively produced mediators are several matrix metalloproteases (MMPs) which may contribute to modify the lung microenvironment by various mechanisms. Thus, these enzymes can not only degrade all the components of the extracellular matrix, but they are also able to release, cleave and activate a wide range of growth factors, cytokines, chemokines and cell surface receptors affecting numerous cell functions including adhesion, proliferation, differentiation, recruiting and transmigration, and apoptosis. Therefore, dysregulated expression of MMPs may have profound impact on the biopathological mechanisms implicated in the development of IPF. This review focuses on the current and emerging evidence regarding the role of MMPs on the fibrotic processes in IPF as well as in mouse models of lung fibrosis.

Abstract
Background Matrix metalloproteinase 7 (MMP-7) promotes tumor invasion and metastasis in several cancers. However, its role in lung cancer progression is understudied. In this study, we investigated the correlation between MMP-7 expression and lung cancer pathology. Methods We searched the databases PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, CISCOM, CINAHL, China BioMedicine (CBM) and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) for scientific literature relevant to MMP-7 and lung cancer. Carefully selected studies were pooled and ORs with 95% CI were calculated. Subgroup analyses and publication bias were analyzed to understand the retrieved data in greater detail. Version 12.0 STATA software was used for statistical analysis. Results We retrieved a total of 121 studies through database searches. Finally, 14 cohort studies satisfied our inclusion/exclusion criteria, and these 14 studies, published between 2004 and 2012, were selected for meta-analysis to understand the influence of MMP-7 expression in lung cancer progression. Our results showed consistent differences in MMP-7 expression when comparisons were made between TNM I-II versus III-IV (OR = 1.82, 95% CI: 1.19 to 2.78, P = 0.006); histologic grade 1 to 2 versus 3 to 4 (OR = 1.67, 95% CI: 1.14 to 2.42, P = 0.008); and lymph node-negative versus lymph node-positive samples (OR = 2.81, 95% CI: 1.73 to 4.58, P <0.001), with significantly higher MMP-7 expression levels found in the more advanced stages. Subgroup analysis showed that age was not the factor influencing the associations between histologic grade, LN metastasis and MMP-7 expression in lung cancer patients, as both under 60 and over 60 age groups showed strong correlations (all P <0.05). However, when TNM staging was analyzed for its association with MMP-7 expression, only patients under age 60 showed a statistically significant correlation. Conclusions Our meta-analysis results revealed that MMP-7 overexpression is associated with advanced TNM and histological grades, and is linked to aggressive LN metastasis in lung cancer patients; thus MMP-7 is a useful biomarker to assess the disease status in lung cancers.
