Tenascin-C stimulates glioma cell invasion through matrix metalloproteinase-12.
The capacity of glioma cells to invade extensively within the central nervous system is a major cause of the high morbidity rate of primary malignant brain tumors. Glioma cell invasion involves the attachment of tumor cells to extracellular matrix (ECM), degradation of ECM components, and subsequent penetration into adjacent brain structures. These processes are accomplished in part by matrix m...
متن کاملChlorotoxin inhibits glioma cell invasion via matrix metalloproteinase-2.
Primary brain tumors (gliomas) have the unusual ability to diffusely infiltrate the normal brain thereby evading surgical treatment. Chlorotoxin is a scorpion toxin that specifically binds to the surface of glioma cells and impairs their ability to invade. Using a recombinant His-Cltx we isolated and identified the principal Cltx receptor on the surface of glioma cells as matrix metalloproteina...
متن کاملReduction of protein kinase C delta attenuates tenascin-C stimulated glioma invasion in three-dimensional matrix.
The invasiveness of glioma cells, a major cause of mortality in malignant brain tumors, is mediated in part by the cellular microenvironment. We have reported that in a three-dimensional matrix of type 1 collagen (3D-CL) gel, the extracellular matrix protein tenascin-C (TN) increased the invasiveness of glioma cells through the downstream production of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-12. In the ...
متن کاملMicroRNA 21 promotes glioma invasion by targeting matrix metalloproteinase regulators.
Substantial data indicate that microRNA 21 (miR-21) is significantly elevated in glioblastoma (GBM) and in many other tumors of various origins. This microRNA has been implicated in various aspects of carcinogenesis, including cellular proliferation, apoptosis, and migration. We demonstrate that miR-21 regulates multiple genes associated with glioma cell apoptosis, migration, and invasiveness, ...
متن کاملMurine matrix metalloproteinase-20 overexpression stimulates cell invasion into the enamel layer via enhanced Wnt signaling
Matrix metalloproteinase-20 (MMP20) is expressed by ameloblasts in developing teeth and MMP20 mutations cause enamel malformation. We established a stably transfected Tet-Off Mmp20-inducible ameloblast-lineage cell line and found that MMP20 expression promoted cell invasion. Previously, we engineered transgenic mice (Tg) that drive Mmp20 expression and showed that Mmp20(+/+)Tg mice had soft ena...
