In recent years matrix metalloproteinases are in increasing interest while studying TBI pathogenesis because of their ability to increase permeability of the blood-brain barrier and to cause nervous tissue matrix reorganization. The goal of given study was to investigate the role of matrix metalloproteinase MMP-9, its inhibitor TIMP-1 and interleukin IL-1ß in pathogenesis of TBI. Methods: The study was performed on 98 mature white rats. Moderate severity TBI was modeled with one blow on the cranial vault by means of free-fall­ing plummet. Control group included 30 rats. Cytokines (IL-1b, IL-6, IL-8, TNF-a), MMP-9 and TIMP-1 levels were investi­gated in animals blood by means of ELISA on 1st, 3rd, 7th, 14th and 21st days after trauma. Results and discussion: MMP-9 levels increased by only 38,2% on the 1st day, but on the 3rd day there was its marked increase to 538%. It is known that metalloproteinases are released from the cells under the influence of various factors, including cytokines. On the 1st day after trauma it was IL-1ß which increased by 705% showing the highest rise among other cytokines and exceeding increase in MMP-9 levels. This might indicate regulatory role of IL-1ß.  A marked increase in MMP-9 levels in turn lead to TIMP-1 activation. Significant increase in TIMP-1 levels was determined on the 3rd day after trauma. On the 7th day there was a critical period with the highest levels of IL-1ß (2147,2%), MMP-9 (720,3%) and TIMR-1 (339,3%). Then all research indicators were decreasing with the most pronounced decrease in IL-1ß and MMP-9. Conclusion: MMP-9 levels began to increase on the 1st day after trauma due to influence mainly IL-1ß. An abrupt increase in MMP-9 in its turn caused an increase in TIMR-1 levels. Conclusion: Identified changes in IL-1ß, ???-9 ?? ????-1levels at TBI indicate complex relationships between cytokines and intercellular matrix reorganization regulators in formation of intercellular cooperation and inflammation development.Key words: traumatic brain injury, MMP-9, TIMP-1, IL-1ß
