Commentary Cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions are of vital importance not only for proper cellular homeostasis during embryogenesis and development of an organism, but also in pathological states in diseases ranging from tumor metastasis to AIDS. Tissues owe their dynamic structure both to changes in expression of adhesive proteins and their receptors and to the regulated action of secreted proteinases, particularly members of the metalloproteinase family. Many of these secreted and cell surface proteins and metalloproteinases are found at critical locations that facilitate their involvement in cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions. Metalloproteinases belong to a superfamily of zinc-dependent proteases known as metzincins. Based on sequence and structural similarities, metzincins are grouped in four distinct subfamilies: the astacins, the matrixins (matrix metalloproteinases), the adamalysins (reprolysins, or snake venom metalloproteinases [SVMPs], and ADAMs), and the serralysins (large bacterial proteinases) (1). ADAMs are a family of membrane-associated multidomain zinc-dependent metalloproteinases with high sequence homology and domain organization, similar to the SVMPs of the adamalysin subfamily (2–4). The term “ADAM” stands for a disintegrin and metalloproteinase, which represent the two key structural domains in these molecules. Thus, ADAMs are distinct among cell surface proteins in containing features of both adhesive proteins and proteinases, and their roles in cell-cell interactions have attracted particular interest. In addition, ADAM proteins contain a prodomain, as well as cysteine-rich, EGF-like, transmembrane, and […] Find the latest version: https://jci.me/10078/pdf The new kids on the block: ADAMTSs, Commentary potentially multifunctional metalloproteinases See related article, pages 1345–1352. of the ADAM family Gur P.

Abstract: Enzymes, once considered static molecular machines acting in defined spatial patterns and sites of action, move to different intra- and extracellular locations, changing their function. This topological regulation revealed a close cross-talk between proteases and signaling events involving post-translational modifications, membrane tyrosine kinase receptors and G-protein coupled recep- tors, motor proteins shuttling cargos in intracellular vesicles, and small-molecule messengers. Here, we highlight recent advances in our knowledge of regulation and function of A Disintegrin And Metalloproteinase (ADAM) endopeptidases at specific subcellular sites, or in multimolecular com- plexes, with a special focus on ADAM10, and tumor necrosis factor-α convertase (TACE/ADAM17), since these two enzymes belong to the same family, share selected substrates and bioactivity.

Abstract The high mortality rate of gastric cancer (GC) is in part due to the absence of initial disclosure of its biomarkers. The recognition of important genes associated in GC is therefore recommended to advance clinical prognosis, diagnosis and and treatment outcomes. The current investigation used the microarray dataset GSE113255 RNA seq data from the Gene Expression Omnibus database to diagnose differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Pathway and gene ontology enrichment analyses were performed, and a proteinprotein interaction network, modules, target genes - miRNA regulatory network and target genes - TF regulatory network were constructed and analyzed. Finally, validation of hub genes was performed. The 1008 DEGs identified consisted of 505 up regulated genes and 503 down regulated genes.

Alzheimer’s disease is a neurodegenerative condition characterized by an accumulation of toxic amyloid beta- (Aβ-)peptides in the brain causing progressive neuronal death. Aβ-peptides are produced by aspartyl proteinase-mediated cleavage of the larger amyloid precursor protein (APP). In contrast to this detrimental “amyloidogenic” form of proteolysis, a range of zinc metalloproteinases can process APP via an alternative “nonamyloidogenic” pathway in which the protein is cleaved within its Aβ region thereby precluding the formation of intact Aβ-peptides. In addition, other members of the zinc metalloproteinase family can degrade preformed Aβ-peptides. As such, the zinc metalloproteinases, collectively, are key to downregulating Aβ generation and enhancing its degradation. It is the role of zinc metalloproteinases in this “positive side of proteolysis in Alzheimer’s disease” that is discussed in the current paper. 1.

  • Effect of Inhibition of Matrix Metalloproteinases on Endometrial Decidualization and Implantation in Mated Rats M
    Effect of inhibition of matrix metalloproteinases on endometrial decidualization and implantation in mated rats M. P. Rechtman, J. Zhang and L. A. Salamonsen Prince Henry's Institute ofMedical Research, PO Box 5152, Clayton, Victoria 3168, Australia Implantation of the embryo into the endometrium is a highly regulated event that is critical for establishment of pregnancy. Molecules involved in this process provide potential targets for post-coital contraception. The aims of this study were to determine whether matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are present at implantation sites in rats and whether administration of a broad-based inhibitor of MMPs could inhibit embryo implantation. Uterine extracts from non-pregnant rats and from rats on days 3\p=n-\9 of pregnancy were examined for the presence of MMPs. Doxycycline (5 or 15 mg day\m=-\1) was administered by gavage to rats from the day of mating (day 0) to day 7 of pregnancy and the uterus was examined for implantation sites. A number of MMPs were present in all uterine samples. MMP-2 reached a peak on day 3, whereas the highest expression of MMP-7 occurred on day 7. MMP-13 and MMP-3 were present in smaller amounts. MMP-9 was detectable only on day 9. Treatment of rats with doxycycline had no effect on the number of implantation sites or on the total uterine mass. However, in treated rats, the process of decidualization was impaired and both the width and length of the decidual zone was reduced, resulting in a decrease in total decidual area from 1.20 \m=+-\0.07 to 0.91 \m=+-\0.07 mm2 (mean \m=+-\sem, controls versus doxycycline treated, P < 0.02).

Received December 5, 2019; Accepted June 6, 2020; Epub September 15, 2020; Published September 30, 2020 Abstract: Pancreatic cancer is one of the most lethal cancers and its prognosis remains poor. ADAM family proteins like ADAM10, ADAM9 and ADAM17 function as α-secretase to cleavage cell surface proteins like Notch to facilitate oncogenesis in various tumors. The oncogenic roles of α-secretase in PDAC have been demonstrated but it remains unknown that whether and how α-secretase is regulated in PDAC. Here, we report that the expression of tetraspanin CD9 was increased and strongly associated with poor prognosis in PDAC. CD9 expression was positively associated with α-secretase activity in PDAC tissues and CD9 knock-down inhibited α-secretase activity in PDAC cell lines. Co-immunoprecipitation and GST pull down demonstrates that CD9 directly interacted with ADAM10, ADAM9 and ADAM17, respectively. Cell surface biotin labeling and immunostaining of tagged ADAM proteins show that CD9 promoted cell surface trafficking of ADAM family proteins. In addition, the antibody targeting extracellular domain of CD9 disrupted the interactions between CD9 and ADAM family proteins, reduced cell surface trafficking of ADAM proteins and inhibited α-secretase activity.
