Role of MMP-1 (-519A/G, -1607 1G/2G), MMP-3 (Lys45Glu), MMP-7 (-181A/G), and MMP-12 (-82A/G) Variants and Plasma MMP Levels on Obesity-Related Phenotypes and Microvascular Reactivity in a Tunisian Population.

ABSTRACT: The impact of MMP-1 (-519A/G, -1607 1G/2G), MMP-3 Lys45Glu (A/G), MMP-7 -181A/G, and MMP-12 -82A/G variants and plasma MMP levels on obesity and microvascular reactivity in Tunisians.Our population included 202 nonobese and 168 obese subjects. Anthropometric, biochemical, and microvascular parameters were determined according to standard protocols. PCR-RFLP and ELISA were used to determine the genetic variants and levels of MMPs, respectively.The MMP-3 45Glu (G) allele associates with higher anthropometric values and MMP-3 levels compared to AA genotype carriers (BMI (kg/m2): 30?±?0.51 versus 27.33?±?0.8, P = 0.004; MMP-3 levels: 7.45 (4.77-11.91) versus 5.21 (3.60-10.21) ng/ml, P = 0.006). The MMP-12 -82G allele was also associated with higher BMI values when compared to subjects carrying the AA genotype (31.41?±?0.85 versus 28.76?±?0.43, P < 0.001). Individuals carrying the MMP-3 45G or MMP-12 -82G variants were also associated with a higher risk for severe forms of obesity (MMP-3: OR?=?1.9, P = 0.002; MMP-12: OR?=?2.63, P = 0.003). Similarly, the MMP-7 -181G allele was associated with a higher MMP-7 level and an increased risk for morbid obesity when compared to AA genotype carriers (0.32 (0.31-0.60) versus 0.18 (0.17-0.24) ng/ml, P = 0.01; OR?=?1.67, P = 0.02, resp.).MMP-3, MMP-7, and MMP-12 polymorphisms associate with obesity risk and its severity.

Project description:BackgroundOsteoarthritis (OA) is a common disease characterized by articular cartilage degeneration and secondary hyperosteogenesis. Genetic factors are associated with the occurrence of OA. While several studies have shown that the matrix metalloproteinase-1- (MMP-1-) 1607 1G/2G (rs1799750) polymorphism may be related to the occurrence and development of OA, there is inconsistency in the literature. To better estimate the relationship between the MMP-1 gene polymorphism and OA, a comprehensive meta-analysis of relevant literature was carried out.ResultsIn total, seven studies comprising 1245 OA patients and 1230 controls were included in this meta-analysis. The combined results revealed no significant association between the MMP-1-1607 1G/2G polymorphism and risk of OA in the five genetic models. However, after Bonferroni correction, the results of subgroup analysis revealed a significant correlation between the MMP-1-1607 1G/2G polymorphism and OA susceptibility in the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) OA subgroup (allelic: 2G vs. 1G: OR = 1.575, 95%CI = 1.259-1.972, P < 0.01; recessive: 2G2G vs. 1G1G+1G2G: OR = 2.411, 95%CI = 1.658-3.504, P < 0.01; and homozygote: 2G2G vs. 1G1G: OR = 2.313, 95%CI = 1.341, 3.991, P = 0.003), the younger subgroup (aged less than 60 years; allelic: 2G vs. 1G: OR = 1.635, 95%CI = 1.354, 1.974, P < 0.01; dominant: 2G1G+2G2G vs. 1G1G: OR = 1.622, 95%CI = 1.158, 2.271, P = 0.005; recessive: 2G2G vs. 1G1G+1G2G: OR = 2.209, 95%CI = 1.718, 2.840, P < 0.01; and homozygote: 2G2G vs. 1G1G: OR = 2.578, 95%CI = 1.798, 3.696, P < 0.01), the larger subgroup (N > 300), and the hospital-based case-control study (HCC) subgroup. The sensitivity analysis suggested that the results of the meta-analysis were stable and reliable. Begg's funnel plot and Egger's test indicated that there was no publication bias in this study.ConclusionOur meta-analysis indicated that although the MMP-1-1607 1G/2G polymorphism was not significantly associated with OA susceptibility among the whole sample, it played a key role in the etiology and development of TMJ OA and OA in people aged less than 60 years.

Project description:BackgroundMMP1 is an important member of the MMP endopeptidase family that plays a critical role in the development of head and neck cancer (HNC). Several studies have investigated the association between the MMP1 -1607 1G>2G polymorphism and risk of HNC, but their results have been inconsistent. Here, we conducted a meta-analysis to further explore the role of the MMP1 -1607 1G>2G polymorphism in HNC development.MethodsWe identified all eligible studies in the electronic databases of PubMed, ISI Web of Knowledge, MEDLINE, Embase, and Google Scholar (from January 2000 to June 2012). A meta-analysis was performed to evaluate the association between the MMP1 -1607 1G>2G polymorphism and risk of HNC by calculating odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CIs).ResultsTwelve studies were included in this meta-analysis. In overall comparison, significant associations were found using the recessive and allelic contrast models (OR, 1.38; 95% CI, 1.07-1.79 and OR, 1.27; 95% CI, 1.05-1.53, respectively), but no association was detected using the dominant model. In the stratified analyses by several variables, significant associations were observed using the recessive, dominant, and allelic contrast models in the Asian population (OR, 1.64; 95% CI, 1.29-2.08; OR, 1.39; 95% CI, 1.06-1.82; and OR, 1.41; 95% CI, 1.21-1.65, respectively), European population (OR, 0.58; 95% CI, 0.40-0.84; OR, 0.64; 95% CI, 0.44-0.92; and OR, 0.68; 95% CI, 0.54-0.85, respectively), and population-based subgroup (OR, 1.24; 95% CI,1.05-1.47; OR,1.48; 95% CI,1.04-2.12; and OR, 1.22; 95% CI, 1.07-1.38, respectively). Furthermore, significant associations were detected in oral cavity cancer and nasopharyngeal cancer under the recessive model.ConclusionOur results suggest that the MMP1 -1607 1G>2G polymorphism is associated with risk of HNC and that it plays different roles in Asian and European populations. Further studies with large sample size are needed to validate our findings.

Project description:Pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells (PMVECs) display a rapid angioproliferative phenotype, essential for maintaining homeostasis in steady-state and promoting vascular repair after injury. Although it has long been established that endothelial cytosolic Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i) transients are required for proliferation and angiogenesis, mechanisms underlying such regulation and the transmembrane channels mediating the relevant [Ca2+]i transients remain incompletely understood. In the present study, the functional role of the microvascular endothelial site-specific α1G T-type Ca2+ channel in angiogenesis was examined. PMVECs intrinsically possess an in vitro angiogenic "network formation" capacity. Depleting extracellular Ca2+ abolishes network formation, whereas blockade of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor or nitric oxide synthase has little or no effect, suggesting that the network formation is a [Ca2+]i-dependent process. Blockade of the T-type Ca2+ channel or silencing of α1G, the only voltage-gated Ca2+ channel subtype expressed in PMVECs, disrupts network formation. In contrast, blockade of canonical transient receptor potential (TRP) isoform 4 or TRP vanilloid 4, two other Ca2+ permeable channels expressed in PMVECs, has no effect on network formation. T-type Ca2+ channel blockade also reduces proliferation, cell-matrix adhesion, and migration, three major components of angiogenesis in PMVECs. An in vivo study demonstrated that the mice lacking α1G exhibited a profoundly impaired postinjury cell proliferation in the lungs following lipopolysaccharide challenge. Mechanistically, T-type Ca2+ channel blockade reduces Akt phosphorylation in a dose-dependent manner. Blockade of Akt or its upstream activator, phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K), also impairs network formation. Altogether, these findings suggest a novel functional role for the α1G T-type Ca2+ channel to promote the cell's angiogenic potential via a PI3K-Akt signaling pathway.

Project description:While macrophages are well-known to polarize across the inflammatory spectrum, neutrophils have only recently been found to activate in a similar fashion in response to pro- or anti-inflammatory stimuli. Matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-12 mediates neutrophil physiology with direct signaling mechanisms yet to be investigated. We hypothesized MMP-12 may modify neutrophil signaling. Bone marrow neutrophils were stimulated with interleukin (IL-1β; pro-inflammatory), IL-4 (anti-inflammatory), or MMP-12. The secretome was mapped by multi-analyte profiling and intracellular signaling evaluated by array. IL-1β induced a cytokine-mediated inflammatory LPS-like signalome, with upregulation of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as interferon gamma (IFNγ,15.2-fold,p = 0.001), chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 1 (CXCL1,8.4-fold,p = 0.005), and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα,11.2-fold,p = 0.004). IL-4 induced strong intracellular signaling with upregulation of mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MEK1;1.9-fold,p = 0.0005) and downregulation of signal transducer and activator of transcription 4 (STAT4;0.77-fold,0.001). MMP-12 increased IL-4 secretion 20-fold and induced a robust apoptotic neutrophil signalome with upregulation of forkhead box O1 (FOXO1;1.4-fold,p < 0.0001) and downregulation of WNT signaling with MMP-12 cleavage of the adherens junction components β-catenin, cahderin-3, and catenin-α2. In conclusion, neutrophils shifted phenotype by stimuli, with MMP-12 inducing a unique apoptotic signalome with higher resemblance to the anti-inflammatory signalome. SIGNIFICANCE: This study revealed that neutrophils demonstrate unique polarization signaling responses to specific stimuli, with the matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-12 signalome showing similarity to the IL-4 signalome. MMP-12 polarized neutrophils towards a strong apoptotic signature by upregulating FOXO1 and downregulating WNT signaling. Our results highlight that neutrophils display more plasticity than previously appreciated.
