BSG and ataxia telangiectasia: When looking at the correlations between the markers within the same compartments, levels of MMP-9 and TIMP-1 were inter-correlated in all 3 compartments, levels of TIMP-1 and EMMRIPN were inter-correlated in the circulation and in circulating leukocytes, whereas expression of Galectin-3 was inter-correlated with expression of TIMP-1 and EMMPRIN in AT.
