Cleavage of apolipoprotein E by membrane-type matrix metalloproteinase-1 abrogates suppression of cell proliferation.

چکیده
Apolipoprotein E (apoE) in a human fetal brain cDNA library was identified, using the expression cloning method, as a gene product that formed a complex with latent matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2. Co-expression of membrane-type MMP-1 (MT1-MMP) with apoE in HEK293T cells reduced the amount of apoE secreted into the culture medium, whereas cell-associated apoE core protein was not affected. Incubation of native apoE protein with recombinant MT1-MMP resulted in the cleavage of apoE. Recombinant apoE protein fused to glutathione S-transferase (apoE-GST) was cleaved by MT1-MMP at the following peptide bonds; T(85)-M(86), K(93)-S(94), R(246)-L(247), A(255)-E(256) and G(296)-L(297). HT1080 cells transfected with the apoE gene, which express endogenous MT1-MMP, secreted a low level of apoE protein and its cleaved fragments, and treatment with MMP inhibitor BB94 induced accumulation of apoE and retardation of cell proliferation. Addition of apoE-GST protein to the culture of HEK293T cells suppressed cell proliferation, and stable transfection of the MT1-MMP gene partly abrogated the suppression. These results suggest that cleavage of apoE protein by MT1-MMP abrogates apoE-mediated suppression of cell proliferation.

Cleavage of growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF15) by membrane type 1-matrix metalloproteinase abrogates GDF15-mediated suppression of tumor cell growth.
Growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF15), a transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta superfamily member, has been cloned from a placenta cDNA library as a gene product that has promoted activation of pro-matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)2 mediated by membrane type (MT)1-MMP. Expression of MT1-MMP in HEK293T cells caused cleavage of the GDF15 mature form at N(252)-M(253) to produce a 6-kDa C-terminal ...
متن کاملCleavage of lumican by membrane-type matrix metalloproteinase-1 abrogates this proteoglycan-mediated suppression of tumor cell colony formation in soft agar.
The small leucine-rich proteoglycan lumican was identified from a human placenta cDNA library by the expression cloning method as a gene product that interacts with membrane-type matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MT1-MMP). Coexpression of MT1-MMP with lumican in HEK293T cells reduced the concentration of lumican secreted into culture medium, and this reduction was abolished by addition of the MMP inh...

The lung cancer is one of the most dangerous cancers and is also the leading cause of cancer death worldwide, accounting for about 1.3 million deaths annually. However in clinical practice, lung cancer therapies commonly do with chemotherapy, although it is hard because the lung cancer may progress to metastasis stage. The metastasis of lung cancer is highly dependent of expression of matrix me...

Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common causes of cancer-related death in the world. The expression of N-myc downstream-regulated gene 2 (NDRG2) is down-regulated in CRC. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of NDRG2 overexpression on cell proliferation and invasive potential of SW48 cells.Methods: SW48 cells were transfected with a plasmid overexpressing ND...

Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), especially membrane-type 1 matrix metalloproteinase (MT1-MMP), which generates an active form of MMP-2 from proMMP-2, are deeply involved in angiogenesis as well as in tumor cell migration and metastasis. To obtain a specific inhibitor for MT1-MMP, we screened a number of natural and synthetic compounds using recombinant human MMP-2, MMP-7, and soluble MT1-MMP ...
