Shedding of Syndecan-1/CXCL1 Complexes by Matrix Metalloproteinase 7 Functions as an Epithelial Checkpoint of Neutrophil Activation.

ABSTRACT: Although neutrophils play critical roles in innate immunity, in excess these cells cause severe tissue damage. Thus, neutrophil activation must be tightly regulated to prevent indiscriminant damage. Previously, we reported that mice lacking matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) 7 are protected from lung injury owing to markedly impaired neutrophil movement from the interstitium into mucosal lumenal spaces. This phenotype resulted from a lack of MMP7 shedding of syndecan-1, a heparan sulfate proteoglycan that carries the neutrophil chemokine CXCL1 as cargo. Here, we assessed if shedding syndecan-1/CXCL1 complexes affects neutrophil activation. Whereas injured monolayers of wild-type alveolar type II cells potently stimulated neutrophil activation, as gauged by release of myeloperoxidase, cells from Mmp7(-/-) or syndecan-1-null (Sdc1(-/-)) mice or human cells with MMP7 knockdown did not. In vivo, we observed reduced myeloperoxidase release relative to neutrophil numbers in bleomycin-injured Mmp7(-/-) and Sdc1(-/-) mice. Furthermore, we determined that soluble syndecan-1 directly stimulated neutrophil activation in the absence of cellular damage. These data indicate that MMP7 shedding of syndecan-1/CXCL1 complexes functions as a checkpoint that restricts neutrophil activation at sites of epithelial injury.

Project description:Broad-spectrum matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) inhibitors (MMPI) were unsuccessful in cancer clinical trials, partly due to side effects resulting from limited knowledge of the full repertoire of MMP substrates, termed the substrate degradome, and hence the in vivo functions of MMPs. To gain further insight into the degradome of MMP-14 (membrane type 1 MMP) an MMPI, prinomastat (drug code AG3340), was used to reduce proteolytic processing and ectodomain shedding in human MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells transfected with MMP-14. We report a quantitative proteomic evaluation of the targets and effects of the inhibitor in this cell-based system. Proteins in cell-conditioned medium (the secretome) and membrane fractions with levels that were modulated by the MMPI were identified by isotope-coded affinity tag (ICAT) labeling and tandem mass spectrometry. Comparisons of the expression of MMP-14 with that of a vector control resulted in increased MMP-14/vector ICAT ratios for many proteins in conditioned medium, indicating MMP-14-mediated ectodomain shedding. Following MMPI treatment, the MMPI/vehicle ICAT ratio was reversed, suggesting that MMP-14-mediated shedding of these proteins was blocked by the inhibitor. The reduction in shedding or the release of substrates from pericellular sites in the presence of the MMPI was frequently accompanied by the accumulation of the protein in the plasma membrane, as indicated by high MMPI/vehicle ICAT ratios. Considered together, this is a strong predictor of biologically relevant substrates cleaved in the cellular context that led to the identification of many undescribed MMP-14 substrates, 20 of which we validated biochemically, including DJ-1, galectin-1, Hsp90alpha, pentraxin 3, progranulin, Cyr61, peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase A, and dickkopf-1. Other proteins with altered levels, such as Kunitz-type protease inhibitor 1 and beta-2-microglobulin, were not substrates in biochemical assays, suggesting an indirect affect of the MMPI, which might be important in drug development as biomarkers or, in preclinical phases, to predict systemic drug actions and adverse side effects. Hence, this approach describes the dynamic pattern of cell membrane ectodomain shedding and its perturbation upon metalloproteinase drug treatment.
