Membrane type 1 matrix metalloprotease cleaves laminin-10 and promotes prostate cancer cell migration.

ABSTRACT: Disruption of the extracellular matrix by proteases is crucial for tumor invasion. Laminin-10 (Ln-10) has previously been identified as a substrate for cell migration and cell adhesion, and is present in the basal lamina (BL) of both normal prostate and prostate cancer. Here, we investigate a role for membrane type 1 matrix metalloprotease (MT1-MMP) in modifying this Ln-10-rich BL. MT1-MMP is a transmembrane member of the MMP family that has been demonstrated to be upregulated as prostate cancer progresses from normal to prostate intraepithelial neoplasia to invasive cancer, suggesting a role for MT1-MMP in the invasion of prostate cancer. We show that MT1-MMP cleaves the alpha5 chain of purified human Ln-10 from its 350-kDa form into 310-, 190-, 160-, and 45-kDa fragments. This cleavage causes a decrease in DU-145 prostate cancer cell adhesion to purified Ln-10, and an increase in transmigration of DU-145 cells through cleaved Ln-10. We also show that prostate cancer cells expressing membrane-bound MT1-MMP cleave the alpha5 chain of Ln-10. Ln alpha5-chain cleavage is also observed in human prostate cancer tissues. These findings suggest that prostate cancer cells expressing high levels of MT1-MMP have increased invasive potential through their ability to degrade and invade Ln-10 barriers.

Project description:The neutrophil-specific protease membrane-type 6 matrix metalloproteinase (MT6-MMP)/MMP-25/leukolysin is implicated in multiple sclerosis and cancer yet remains poorly characterized. To characterize the biological roles of MT6-MMP, it is critical to identify its substrates for which only seven are currently known. Here, we biochemically characterized MT6-MMP, profiled its tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase inhibitory spectrum, performed degradomics analyses, and screened 26 chemokines for cleavage using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry. MT6-MMP processes seven each of the CXC and CC chemokine subfamilies. Notably, cleavage of the neutrophil chemoattractant CXCL5 activates the chemokine, thereby increasing its agonist activity, indicating a feed-forward mechanism for neutrophil recruitment. Likewise, cleavage also activated CCL15 and CCL23 to increase monocyte recruitment. Utilizing the proteomics approach proteomic identification of cleavage site specificity (PICS), we identified 286 peptidic cleavage sites spanning from P6 to P6' from which an unusual glutamate preference in P1 was identified. The degradomics screen terminal amine isotopic labeling of substrates (TAILS), which enriches for neo-N-terminal peptides of cleaved substrates, was used to identify 58 new native substrates in fibroblast secretomes after incubation with MT6-MMP. Vimentin, cystatin C, galectin-1, IGFBP-7, and secreted protein, acidic and rich in cysteine (SPARC) were among those substrates we biochemically confirmed. An extracellular "moonlighting" form of vimentin is a chemoattractant for THP-1 cells, but MT6-MMP cleavage abolished monocyte recruitment. Unexpectedly, the MT6-MMP-cleaved vimentin potently stimulated phagocytosis, which was not a property of the full-length protein. Hence, MT6-MMP regulates neutrophil and monocyte chemotaxis and by generating "eat-me" signals upon vimentin cleavage potentially increases phagocytic removal of neutrophils to resolve inflammation.
