Immunohistochemical study of membrane type-matrix metalloproteinases (MT-MMPs) and matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) in dermatofibroma and malignant fibrous histiocytoma.

Abstract:

:Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) play an important role in tumor invasion and metastasis. Enhanced expression of matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) has been demonstrated in dermatofibroma (DF) and malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH). MMP-2 has been shown to be activated by membrane-type MMPs (MT-MMPs). To study the role of MT-MMP in the activation of MMP-2, skin specimens of DF (five cases) and MFH (three cases) were immunohistochemically studied using in situ zymography and the antibodies against matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) and membrane type 1-3-MMPs (MT1-3-MMPs). Both MMP-2 activity and its expression were significantly activated in the tumor cells in DF and MFH. Anti-MT2-MMP strongly reacted with tumor cells of all cases of DF and MFH, whereas anti-MT1 or 3-MMP antibody showed a weak reaction in some cases of DF and MFH. Double immunofluorescence labeling demonstrated that the immunoreactive cells with anti-MMP-2 antibody in DF and MFH consistently reacted with anti-MT2-MMP antibody. The results suggest that the activation of MMP-2 in the benign and malignant fibrous tumors is related to the activation of MT-MMPs.
