Protease induced plasticity: matrix metalloproteinase-1 promotes neurostructural changes through activation of protease activated receptor 1
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a family of secreted endopeptidases expressed by neurons and glia. Regulated MMP activity contributes to physiological synaptic plasticity, while dysregulated activity can stimulate injury. Disentangling the role individual MMPs play in synaptic plasticity is difficult due to overlapping structure and function as well as cell-type specific expression. Here, ...
متن کاملThrombin-Induced Calpain Activation Promotes Protease-Activated Receptor 1 Internalization
The serine protease thrombin activates Protease-Activated Receptors (PARs), a family of G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) activated by the proteolytic cleavage of their extracellular N-terminal domain. Four members of this family have been identified: PAR1-4. The activation of Protease-Activated Receptor 1(PAR1), the prototype of this receptor family, leads to an increase in intracellular Ca+...
متن کاملPlasmin Activation of Glial Cells through Protease-Activated Receptor 1
The objective of this study was to determine whether plasmin could induce morphological changes in human glial cells via PAR1. Human glioblastoma A172 cells were cultured in the presence of plasmin or the PAR1 specific activating hexapeptide, SFLLRN. Cells were monitored by flow cytometry to detect proteolytic activation of PAR1 receptor. Morphological changes were recorded by photomicroscopy a...
متن کاملβ-adrenergic receptor stimulation transactivates protease-activated receptor 1 via matrix metalloproteinase 13 in cardiac cells.
BACKGROUND Chronic β-adrenergic receptor (β-AR) overstimulation, a hallmark of heart failure, is associated with increased cardiac expression of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). MMP-1 has been shown to cleave and activate the protease-activated receptor 1 (PAR1) in noncardiac cells. In the present study, we hypothesized that β-AR stimulation would result in MMP-dependent PAR1 transactivation i...
متن کاملProtease-activated receptor 1 knockout reduces experimentally induced liver fibrosis.
Thrombin inhibition protects against liver fibrosis. However, it is not known whether the thrombin profibrogenic effect is due to effects on blood coagulation or to signaling via protease-activated receptors (PARs). We took advantage of the lack of blood coagulation defects in PAR-1-knockout mice. Acute carbon tetrachloride (CCl(4)) toxicity was similar in wild-type (WT), PAR-1(-/-), and PAR-1(...
