Popis: | We have reported that laminin-10/11 strongly promotes migration of A549 human lung carcinoma cells by activating the alpha3beta1 integrin-dependent signaling pathway. To elucidate the mechanism involved, we investigated whether matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are involved in cell migration on laminin-10/11. Here, we demonstrate that laminin-10/11, but not fibronectin which does not greatly promote A549 cell movement, stimulated MMP-2 secretion approximately 3-fold. The cell migration-promoting activity of laminin-10/11 was down-regulated by an MMP inhibitor. In addition, cell motility was significantly increased when cells adhered to a mixture of fibronectin and laminin-10/11 with a concomitant decrease of focal contacts, compared with those adhering to fibronectin alone. The enhanced cell migration was partially suppressed by the MMP inhibitor. Furthermore, an anti-alpha3 integrin, but not an anti-alpha5 integrin, antibody induced the activated form of MMP-2. These data suggest that MMP-2 may play an important role in A549 cell migration on laminin-10/11 through an alpha3beta1 integrin-dependent pathway. |
