  • MINIREVIEW Complex Role of Matrix Metalloproteinases in Angiogen- Esis
    Cell Research (1998), 8, 171-177 MINIREVIEW Complex role of matrix metalloproteinases in angiogen- esis SANG QING XIANG AMY* Biochemistry Division, Department of Chemistry, Florida State University, Tallahassee, Florida 32306-4390, USA ABSTRACT Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and tissue in- hibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) play a significant role in regulating angiogenesis, the process of new blood vessel formation. Interstitial collagenase (MMP-1), 72 kDa gelatinase A/type IV collagenase (MMP-2), and 92 kDa gelatinase B/type IV collagenase (MMP-9) dissolve ex- tracellular matrix (ECM) and may initiate and promote angiogenesis. TIMP-1, TIMP-2, TIMP-3, and possibly, TIMP-4 inhibit neovascularization. A new paradigm is emerging that matrilysin (MMP-7), MMP-9, and metal- loelastase (MMP-12) may block angiogenesis by convert- ing plasminogen to angiostatin, which is one of the most potent angiogenesis antagonists. MMPs and TIMPs play a complex role in regulating angiogenesis. An understanding of the biochemical and cellular pathways and mechanisms of angiogenesis will provide important information to al- low the control of angiogenesis, e.g. the stimulation of angiogenesis for coronary collateral circulation formation; while the inhibition for treating arthritis and cancer.

Transcripts encoding 22 of the 23 known mammalian MMPs were measured in the mouse spinal cord at various time points after injury. Although there were significant changes in the expression levels of multiple MMPs, MMP-12 was increased 189-fold over normal levels, the highest of all MMPs examined. To evaluate the role of MMP-12 in SCI, spinal cord compression was performed in wild-type (WT) and MMP-12 null mice. Behavioral analyses were conducted for 4 weeks using the Basso–Beattie–Bresnahan (BBB) locomotor rating scale as well as the inclined plane test. The results show that MMP-12 null mice exhibited significantly improved functional recovery compared with WT controls. Twenty-eight days after injury, the BBB score in the MMP-12 group was 7, representing extensive movement of all three hindlimb joints, compared with 4 in the WT group, representing only slight movement of these joints.

A Comparison between Neutrophil Collagenase and Gelatinases A and B Giovanni Francesco Fasciglione,* Stefano Marini,* Silvana D’Alessio,† Vincenzo Politi,† and Massimo Coletta* *Department of Experimental Medicine and Biochemical Sciences, University of Roma Tor Vergata, I-00133 Roma, and †PoliFarma, I-00155 Roma, Italy ABSTRACT Metalloproteases are metalloenzymes secreted in the extracellular fluid and involved in inflammatory patholo- gies or events, such as extracellular degradation. A Zn2ϩ metal, present in the active site, is involved in the catalytic mechanism, and it is generally coordinated with histidyl and/or cysteinyl residues of the protein moiety. In this study we have investigated the effect of both pH (between pH 4.8 and 9.0) and temperature (between 15°C and 37°C) on the enzymatic functional properties of the neutrophil interstitial collagenase (MMP-8), gelatinases A (MMP-2) and B (MMP-9), using the same Ϸ synthetic substrate, namely MCA-Pro-Leu-Gly Leu-DPA-Ala-Arg-NH2. A global analysis of the observed proton-linked behavior for kcat/Km, kcat, and Km indicates that in order to have a fully consistent description of the enzymatic action of these metalloproteases we have to imply at least three protonating groups, with differing features for the three enzymes investi- gated, which are involved in the modulation of substrate interaction and catalysis by the enzyme. This is the first investigation of this type on recombinant collagenases and gelatinases of human origin.

Abstract: Collagen fibres degradation is a complex process involving a variety of enzymes. Fibrillar collagens, namely type I, II, and III, are the most widely spread collagens in human body, e.g., they are responsible for tissue fibrillar structure and skin elasticity. Nevertheless, the hyperactivity of fibrotic process and collagen accumulation results with joints, bone, heart, lungs, kidneys or liver fibroses. Per contra, dysfunctional collagen turnover and its increased degradation leads to wound healing disruption, skin photoaging, and loss of firmness and elasticity. In this review we described the main enzymes participating in collagen degradation pathway, paying particular attention to enzymes degrading fibrillar collagen. Therefore, collagenases (MMP-1, -8, and -13), elastases, and cathepsins, together with their peptide and peptidomimetic inhibitors, are reviewed. This information, related Citation: Ledwo´n,P.; Papini, A.M.; to the design and synthesis of new inhibitors based on peptide structure, can be relevant for future Rovero, P.; Latajka, R.

MMP-13 production in chondrocytes and synoviocytes is upregulated by stimulation with inflammatory mediators such as IL-1, TNF and retinoic acid (1). MMP-13 has been shown to degrade type I and II collagen and the degradation of type II collagen occurs approximately ten times faster than that of type I collagen (2). The typical 3/4 and 1/4 fragments of collagen are produced as with MMP-1 (collagenase 1).

Gelsea,E.Po¨schlb, T. Aignera,* a Cartilage Research, Department of Pathology, University of Erlangen-Nu¨rnberg, Krankenhausstr. 8-10, D-91054 Erlangen, Germany b Department of Experimental Medicine I, University of Erlangen-Nu¨rnberg, 91054 Erlangen, Germany Received 20 January 2003; accepted 26 August 2003 Abstract The extracellular matrix represents a complex alloy of variable members of diverse protein families defining structural integrity and various physiological functions. The most abundant family is the collagens with more than 20 different collagen types identified so far. Collagens are centrally involved in the formation of fibrillar and microfibrillar networks of the extracellular matrix, basement membranes as well as other structures of the extracellular matrix. This review focuses on the distribution and function of various collagen types in different tissues. It introduces their basic structural subunits and points out major steps in the biosynthesis and supramolecular processing of fibrillar collagens as prototypical members of this protein family. A final outlook indicates the importance of different collagen types not only for the understanding of collagen-related diseases, but also as a basis for the therapeutical use of members of this protein family discussed in other chapters of this issue.
