Introduction
The regulation and elevation in expression of the catabolic matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) is of high importance in the human intervertebral disc since upregulation of these matrix-degrading enzymes results in matrix destruction associated with disc degeneration. MMP28 (epilysin) is a newly discovered MMP believed to play a role in matrix composition and turnover in skin. It is present in basal keratinocytes where its expression is upregulated with wound repair, and in cartilage and synovium where it is upregulated in osteoarthritis. Recent work has shown that mechanical compression can act to modulate expression of MMP28. The expression of MMP28 is unexplored in the intervertebral disc. 相似文献2.

The role of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) in cell migration was studied by measuring cell growth, migration, and production of MMP-2 and -9 in oral mucosal and skin keratinocytes cultured in the presence of synthetic MMP inhibitors. MMP-2 was the major gelatinolytic MMP produced by these cells while MMP-9 was produced at a low basal level. Inhibitor effects on MMP-9 production were therefore studied in keratinocytes stimulated by tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha). Tetracycline analogues at concentrations that inhibited the production of MMP-2 but not MMP-9 were able to drastically inhibit migration of both mucosal and skin keratinocytes. Tetracycline analogues also inhibited keratinocyte growth, an effect not found for the other inhibitors tested. Heterocyclic carbonate-derived compounds (LWs) that inhibited MMP-9 but not MMP-2 production had no effect on cell migration. Batimastat, a potent MMP inhibitor, did not have any effect on MMP production or cell growth but did inhibit keratinocyte migration. Tumor growth factor beta (TGFbeta) increased keratinocyte migration as well as both cell-associated and secreted MMP-2 production in wounded cell cultures. The secreted enzyme was partially converted into an active form. In this model batimastat totally blocked TGFbeta-promoted keratinocyte migration. Immunostaining of keratinocytes advancing into the wound revealed that MMP-2 was localized in extracellular matrix contactlike structures against the endogenously produced laminin-5-rich matrix. MMP-9 was localized diffusely along the cell membranes. Using in situ hybridization we observed that in chronically inflamed human gingiva MMP-2 is expressed in epithelium extending into subepithelial connective tissue. These results suggest that MMP-2 plays a specific role in epithelial migration, possibly by detaching the advancing cells from the pericellular matrix or by activating other MMPs. 相似文献

Three genes potentially encoding novel matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) were identified by sequence similarity searching of Caenorhabditis elegans genome database, and cDNAs for these MMPs were cloned. The predicted gene products (MMP-C31,-H19 and -Y19) display a similar domain organization to human MMPs. MMP-H19 and -Y19 are unique in that they have an RXKR motif between the propeptide and catalytic domains that is a furin-like cleavage site, and conserved only in stromelysin-3 and membrane-type MMPs. The amino acid sequence homology with MMP-1/human interstitial collagenase at the catalytic domain is 45%, 34% and 23% for MMP-C31, -H19 and -Y19, respectively. Recombinant proteins of C. elegans MMPs cleaved an MMP peptide substrate with efficiency proportional to their amino acid homology with human MMPs. Digestion of gelatin was observed only with MMP-C31. Enzyme activity of MMP-C31 and -H19 was inhibited by human tissue inhibitor of MMPs (TIMP)-1, TIMP-2 and synthetic MMP inhibitors, BB94 and CT543, indicating that the catalytic sites of these C. elegans MMPs are structurally closely related with those of mammalian MMPs. 相似文献

Unlike most other matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) MMP-19 is expressed in undifferentiated basal keratinocytes of healthy human skin. The human keratinocyte cell line HaCaT, which like basal keratinocytes constitutively expresses MMP-19, down-regulated the expression of MMP-19 at high calcium concentrations. Calcium-regulation occurred through E-cadherin mediated cell-cell contacts because neutralizing anti-E-cadherin antibodies restored MMP-19 expression in high calcium. Overexpression of MMP-19 in HaCaT cells (HaCaT-WT) increased cellular proliferation, as well as migration and adhesion on type I collagen. This was due to proteolysis of the insulin-like growth factor (IGF) binding protein-3 by MMP-19, which augmented signaling through the IGF-I receptor, as evidenced by its increased autophosphorylation. Conversely, these effects were not observed in cells transfected with MMP-2 or a catalytically inactive MMP-19 mutant. As further proof that increased IGF-signaling promoted adhesion and migration in HaCaT-WT cells, we reproduced these effects by treating parental HaCaT with IGF-I. We observed dephosphorylation of the focal adhesion kinase in HaCaT-WT as well as IGF-I-treated HaCaT cells, suggesting that inactivating focal adhesion kinase is a mechanism by which IGF-I enhances adhesion. Furthermore, IGF-I-triggered motility on type I collagen was mediated by MMP activity, which, however, was distinct from MMP-19. Considering the coexpression of IGFBP-3 and MMP-19 in the skin, we conclude that MMP-19 is a likely candidate to be the major IGFBP-3 degrading MMP in the quiescent epidermis. This activity might have widespread consequences for the behavior of epidermal keratinocytes. 相似文献

Epidermal tissue repair represents a complex series of temporal and dynamic events resulting in wound closure. Matricellular proteins, not normally expressed in quiescent adult tissues, play a pivotal role in wound repair and associated extracellular matrix remodeling by modulating the adhesion, migration, intracellular signaling, and gene expression of inflammatory cells, pericytes, fibroblasts and keratinocytes. Several matricellular proteins show temporal expression during dermal wound repair, but the expression pattern of the recently identified matricellular protein, periostin, has not yet been characterized. The primary aim of this study was to assess whether periostin protein is present in healthy human skin or in pathological remodeling (Nevus). The second aim was to determine if periostin is expressed during dermal wound repair. Using immunohistochemistry, periostin reactivity was detected in the keratinocytes, basal lamina, and dermal fibroblasts in healthy human skin. In pathological nevus samples, periostin was present in the extracellular matrix. In excisional wounds in mice, periostin protein was first detected in the granulation tissue at day 3, with levels peaking at day 7. Periostin protein co-localized with α-smooth muscle actin-positive cells and keratinocytes, but not CD68 positive inflammatory cells. We conclude that periostin is normally expressed at the cellular level in human and murine skin, but additionally becomes extracellular during tissue remodeling. Periostin may represent a new therapeutic target for modulating the wound repair process. 相似文献

The matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) constitute a family of multidomain zinc endopeptidases which contain a catalytic domain with a common metzincin-like topology. The MMPs are involved not only in extracellular matrix degradation, but also in a number of other biological processes. Normally, their proteolytic activity is regulated precisely by their main endogenous protein inhibitors, in particular the tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs). Disruption of this balance results in serious diseases, such as arthritis, tumour growth and metastasis, rendering the MMPs attractive targets for inhibition therapy. Knowledge of their tertiary structures is crucial for a full understanding of their functional properties. Since the first publication of atomic MMP structures in 1994, much more structural information has become available on details of the catalytic domain, on its interaction with synthetic and protein inhibitors, on domain organization and on the formation of complexes with other proteins. This review will outline our current knowledge of MMP structure. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to establish a new method for reconstruction of a tissue-engineered skin containing melanocytes by employing tissue engineering. The keratinocytes, melanocytes and dermal fibroblasts were isolated and purified from human foreskin biopsies. Then the cells were used to construct a tissue-engineered skin containing melanocytes. The localization of melanocytes in the tissue-engineered skin was detected by DOPA staining, S-100 immunohistochemical staining and transmission electron microscope (TEM). The results showed that the melanocytes could be detected in the basal layer of the constructed skin and the melanocytes showed dendritic morphology. Moreover the constructed skins were used to repair the athymic mice skin defects. Animal experiment results indicated that the skin equivalents could successfully repair full thickness skin defects in athymic mice and generated black skins by 6weeks after grafting. Melanocytes located in the basal layer of the athymic mice skin could also be detected by using the S-100 immunohistochemical staining. Our established method is useful to repair the full-thickness skin defects. 相似文献

Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a large family of extracellular or membrane-bound proteases. Their ability to cleave extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins has implicated a role in ECM remodeling to affect cell fate and behavior during development and in pathogenesis. We have shown previously that membrane-type 1 (MT1)-MMP [corrected] is coexpressed temporally and spatially with the MMP gelatinase A (GelA) in all cell types of the intestine and tail where GelA is expressed during Xenopus laevis metamorphosis, suggesting a cooperative role of these MMPs in development. Here, we show that Xenopus GelA and MT1-MMP interact with each other in vivo and that overexpression of MT1-MMP and GelA together in Xenopus embryos leads to the activation of pro-GelA. We further show that both MMPs are expressed during Xenopus embryogenesis, although MT1-MMP gene is expressed earlier than the GelA gene. To investigate whether the embryonic MMPs play a role in development, we have studied whether precocious expression of these MMPs alters development. Our results show that overexpression of both MMPs causes developmental abnormalities and embryonic death by a mechanism that requires the catalytic activity of the MMPs. More importantly, we show that coexpression of wild type MT1-MMP and GelA leads to a cooperative effect on embryonic development and that this cooperative effect is abolished when the catalytic activity of either MMP is eliminated through a point mutation in the catalytic domain. Thus, our studies support a cooperative role of these MMPs in embryonic development, likely through the activation of pro-GelA by MT1-MMP. 相似文献

Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and their inhibitors are important in connective tissue re-modelling in diseases of the cardiovascular system, such as atherosclerosis. Various members of the MMP family have been shown to be expressed in atherosclerotic lesions, but MMP9 is consistently seen in inflammatory atherosclerotic lesions. MMP9 over-expression is implicated in the vascular re-modelling events preceding plaque rupture (the most common cause of acute myocardial infarction). Reduced MMP9 activity, either by genetic manipulation or through pharmacological intervention, has an impact on ventricular re-modelling following infarction. MMP9 activity may therefore represent a key mechanism in the pathogenesis of heart failure. We have determined the crystal structure, at 2.3 A resolution, of the catalytic domain of human MMP9 bound to a peptidic reverse hydroxamate inhibitor as well as the complex of the same inhibitor bound to an active-site mutant (E402Q) at 2.1 A resolution. MMP9 adopts the typical MMP fold. The catalytic centre is composed of the active-site zinc ion, co-ordinated by three histidine residues (401, 405 and 411) and the essential glutamic acid residue (402). The main differences between the catalytic domains of various MMPs occur in the S1' subsite or selectivity pocket. The S1' specificity site in MMP9 is perhaps best described as a tunnel leading toward solvent, as in MMP2 and MMP13, as opposed to the smaller pocket found in fibroblast collagenase and matrilysin. The present structure enables us to aid the design of potent and specific inhibitors for this important cardiovascular disease target. 相似文献

Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) comprise a large group of endoproteinases that degrade all protein components of the extracellular matrix. Functionally, MMPs contribute to several different physiological as well as pathological conditions. The number of newly described MMPs has increased in recent years, although current knowledge about their expression pattern in various tissues remains incomplete. Here we analyzed the relative mRNA expression of the most recently described MMPs--MT5-MMP (MMP-24), MT6-MMP (MMP-25), MMP-27 and epilysin (MMP-28)--in a broad selection of rat tissues using real time-PCR. MMP-24 mRNA was found to be widely expressed with predominance in the central nervous system. MMP-25 mRNA, in contrast, exhibited peak expression levels in testis, kidney and skeletal muscle, differing from previously described distribution patterns in humans. mRNAs for MMP-27 and MMP-28 were generally expressed at a lower level. All four MMPs studied were detected at higher mRNA levels in bone and kidney, suggesting a possible role of these MMPs in physiological processes within these two organs. The present study highlights the differential distribution pattern of newly described MMPs among different tissues and underlines differences in the mRNA expression between different species. 相似文献

Structural basis of the matrix metalloproteinases and their physiological inhibitors,the tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) constitute a family of multidomain zinc endopeptidases with a metzincin-like catalytic domain, which are involved in extracellular matrix degradation but also in a number of other important biological processes. Under healthy conditions, their proteolytic activity is precisely regulated by their main endogenous protein inhibitors, the tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases. Disruption of this balance results in pathophysiological processes such as arthritis, tumor growth and metastasis, rendering the MMPs attractive targets for inhibition therapy. Knowledge of their tertiary structures is crucial for a full understanding of their functional properties and for rational drug design. Since the first appearance of atomic MMP structures in 1994, a large amount of structural information has become available on the catalytic domains of MMPs and their substrate specificity, interaction with synthetic inhibitors and the TIMPs, the domain organization, and on complex formation with other proteins. This review will outline our current structural knowledge of the MMPs and the TIMPs. 相似文献

Despite much information on their catalytic properties and gene regulation, we actually know very little of what matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) do in tissues. The catalytic activity of these enzymes has been implicated to function in normal lung biology by participating in branching morphogenesis, homeostasis, and repair, among other events. Overexpression of MMPs, however, has also been blamed for much of the tissue destruction associated with lung inflammation and disease. Beyond their role in the turnover and degradation of extracellular matrix proteins, MMPs also process, activate, and deactivate a variety of soluble factors, and seldom is it readily apparent by presence alone if a specific proteinase in an inflammatory setting is contributing to a reparative or disease process. An important goal of MMP research will be to identify the actual substrates upon which specific enzymes act. This information, in turn, will lead to a clearer understanding of how these extracellular proteinases function in lung development, repair, and disease. 相似文献

We have cloned and characterized a cDNA encoding Dm1-MMP, the first matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) identified in Drosophila melanogaster. The isolated cDNA encodes a protein of 541 residues that has a domain organization identical to that of most vertebrate MMPs including a signal sequence, a prodomain with the activation locus, a catalytic domain with a zinc-binding site, and a COOH-terminal hemopexin domain. Northern blot analysis of Dm1-MMP expression in embryonic and larval adult tissues revealed a strong expression level in the developing embryo at 10-22 h, declining thereafter and being undetectable in adults. Western blot analysis confirmed the presence of pro- and active forms of Dm1-MMP in vivo during larval development. In situ hybridization experiments demonstrated that Dm1-MMP is expressed in a segmented pattern in cell clusters at the midline during embryonic stage 12-13, when neurons of the central nervous system start to arise. Recombinant Dm1-MMP produced in Escherichia coli exhibits a potent proteolytic activity against synthetic peptides used for analysis of vertebrate MMPs. This activity is inhibited by tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases and by synthetic MMP inhibitors such as BB-94. Furthermore, Dm1-MMP is able to degrade the extracellular matrix and basement membrane proteins fibronectin and type IV collagen. On the basis of these data, together with the predominant expression of Dm1-MMP in embryonic neural cells, we propose that this enzyme may be involved in the extracellular matrix remodeling taking place during the development of the central nervous system in Drosophila. 相似文献

Mouse enamelysin (Mmp20), a member of the matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) family of extracellular matrix degrading enzymes, shows a high degree of homology with other MMPs, particularly those of the stromelysin/collagenase subfamilies. It is expressed exclusively in ameloblasts and odontoblasts. The mouse enamelysin gene (Mmp20) is made up of 10 exons spanning approximately 65 kb within the MMP gene cluster at the centromeric end of chromosome 9. 相似文献

Matrix metalloproteinases in endometrial breakdown and repair: functional significance in a mouse model 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
Considerable correlative evidence suggests an important role for matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) in menstruation, a process which occurs naturally in very few species. In this study, MMP expression was examined in a mouse model of endometrial breakdown and repair and the functional importance of MMPs determined. In the model, progesterone support was withdrawn from mice in which endometrial decidualization had been induced; 24 h later, endometrial breakdown was complete, and the entire decidual zone had been shed. Re-epithelialization had occurred by 36 h, and the endometrium had undergone extensive restoration toward a predecidualized state by 48 h. Immunoreactive MMP9 and MMP7 colocalized with leukocyte subsets, particularly neutrophils, whereas MMP13 staining was always extracellular. MMP3 and MMP7 were abundant during re-epithelialization in close proximity to newly reforming epithelium. The functional importance of MMPs in these processes was examined using two MMP inhibitors, doxycycline and batimistat. Both inhibitors effectively reduced MMP activity, as assessed by in situ zymography, but did not have significant effects on endometrial breakdown or repair. This study demonstrates that although MMPs are present in abundance during endometrial breakdown and repair in this mouse model, they are not the key mediators of these processes. 相似文献
