Popis: Summary Tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 3 (TIMP-3) is an important regulator of extracellular matrix (ECM) turnover. TIMP-3 binds to sulfated ECM glycosaminoglycans or is endocytosed by cells via low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1 (LRP-1). Here, we report that heparan sulfate (HS) and chondroitin sulfate E (CSE) selectively regulate postsecretory trafficking of TIMP-3 by inhibiting its binding to LRP-1. HS and CSE also increased TIMP-3 affinity for glycan-binding metalloproteinases, such as adamalysin-like metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs 5 (ADAMTS-5), by reducing the dissociation rate constants. The sulfation pattern was crucial for these activities because monosulfated or truncated heparin had a reduced ability to bind to TIMP-3 and increase its affinity for ADAMTS-5. Therefore, sulfation of ECM glycans regulates the levels and inhibitory activity of TIMP-3 and modulates ECM turnover, and small mimicries of sulfated glycans may protect the tissue from the excess destruction seen in diseases such as osteoarthritis, cancer, and atherosclerosis.
Graphical Abstract
Highlights • The metalloprotease inhibitor TIMP-3 binds to sulfated extracellular glycans • This inhibits cellular uptake of TIMP-3 by the endocytic receptor LRP-1 • Glycans also increase TIMP-3 affinity for selected target proteases • The sulfation of matrix glycans therefore modulates TIMP-3 activity and ECM turnover
Tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase (TIMP)-3 regulates extracellular matrix turnover. Troeberg et al. show that TIMP-3 levels are regulated by the balance between its binding to matrix glycans and receptor-mediated endocytosis and that glycan sulfation regulates this equilibrium.
