Role of the matrix metalloproteinase and plasminogen activator-plasmin systems in angiogenesis.
نویسنده
چکیده
Extracellular proteolysis is an absolute requirement for new blood vessel formation (angiogenesis). This review examines the role of the matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) and plasminogen activator (PA)-plasmin systems during angiogenesis. Specifically, a role for gelatinases (MMP-2, MMP-9), membrane-type 1 MMP (MMP-14), the urokinase-type PA receptor, and PA inhibitor 1 has been clearly defined in a number of model systems. The MMP and PA-plasmin systems have also been implicated in experimental vascular tumor formation, and their role during this process will be examined. Antiproteolysis, particularly in the context of angiogenesis, has become a key target in therapeutic strategies aimed at inhibiting tumor growth and other diseases associated with neovascularization.

Background: Plasminogen has a central role in fibrinolyrtic system can activate through various activators (PAs) to its active form plasmin and perfoem its vital function that is fibrin clot lysis. Furthermore the fibrinolyrtic system plays a major role in angiogenesis. The fibrinolyrtic system activation control cell migration and invasion. In addition to this, plasmin regulates tumor growth. ...

Proteolysis of fibrin matrices by endothelial cells plays essential roles in the migratory and morphogenic differentiation processes underlying angiogenesis. Using an in vitro fibrinolysis model consisting of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) embedded in a three dimensional fibrin matrix, we show that VEGF, an angiogenic cytokine that plays a crucial role in the onset of angiogene...
متن کاملCollagen dissolution by keratinocytes requires cell surface plasminogen activation and matrix metalloproteinase activity.
Matrix metalloproteinase-14 is required for degradation of fibrillar collagen by mesenchymal cells. Here we show that keratinocytes use an alternative plasminogen and matrix metalloproteinase-13-dependent pathway for dissolution of collagen fibrils. Primary keratinocytes displayed an absolute requirement for serum to dissolve collagen. Dissolution of collagen was abolished in plasminogen-deplet...
متن کاملEndothelial-cell-stimulating angiogenesis factor (ESAF) activates progelatinase A (72 kDa type IV collagenase), prostromelysin 1 and procollagenase and reactivates their complexes with tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases: a role for ESAF in non-inflammatory angiogenesis.
Endothelial-cell-stimulating angiogenesis factor (ESAF) has been shown to activate procollagenase and reactivate complexes of collagenase and gelatinase A with tissue inhibitor of metallo-proteinase (TIMP)-1. In the present paper we show a purification protocol for bovine pineal ESAF and that purified ESAF activates progelatinase A and prostromelysin-1. Unlike the activation of procollagenase b...

Pericellular proteolysis plays an important role in cell migration and the formation of new capillary structures. The plasminogen activator/plasmin and matrix degrading metalloproteinase (MMP) cascades act together in the remodeling of matrix and cell-matrix contacts. Previously we have shown that the formation of capillary structures by human foreskin microvascular endothelial cells (hMVECs) i...
