Abstract:
:The expression of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) has been found to be positively correlated to the degree of malignancy in gliomas, indicating that poorly differentiated brain tumor cells produce more MMPs than differentiated ones. We determined the production of active MMP-2 in five glial (U138MG, U373MG, A172, C6, GOS-3), two neuronal (SK-N-SH, SK-N-MC), and two pluripotent cell lines with facultative neuronal and glial differentiation (P19 and NT2) by gelatin zymography. The MMP-2 activity profiles were compared to the proliferative activities of the cell lines. MMP-2 expression varied from barely existent (P19 cells) to strong (U138MG and SK-N-SH). Interestingly, for the cell lines with high MMP-2 expression levels, low proliferative activities were recorded, and vice versa. Retinoic acid induced neuronal differentiation and a reduction of proliferation of P19 cells; the differentiated cells produced significantly more MMP-2 than untreated cells. Upon confluency, GOS-3 cells showed reduced proliferation, but increased MMP expression. Thus, proliferative activity was inversely correlated to MMP-2 expression in the tumor cell lines analyzed.
