(A) Scatter plot of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) levels of matrix metalloproteinases (MMP)-2 in healthy controls (HC), and in major depressive disorder (MDD) and schizophrenia (SCZ). The horizontal bars represent mean values adjusted for age and sex. *P < .05. (B) Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) levels of MMP-2 in patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) and schizophrenia (SCZ) were significantly higher than those of healthy controls (HC). Linear regression analysis adjusted for age and sex. *P < .05. (C) Correlation between cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) levels of MMP-2 and clinical symptomatic scores in major depressive disorder (MDD) and schizophrenia (SCZ). The correlation coefficients were calculated using linear regression analysis and adjusted for age and sex. *P < .05. (1) Between CSF levels of MMP-2 and the Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAMD) scores in MDD. (2) Between CSF levels of MMP-2 and the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) scores in SCZ.
