Activated α 2 ‐macroglobulin induces Müller glial cell migration by regulating MT1‐MMP activity through LRP1

Abstract: In retinal proliferative diseases, Müller glial cells (MGCs) acquire migratory abilities. However, the mechanisms that regulate this migration remain poorly understood. In addition, proliferative disorders associated with enhanced activities of matrix metalloprotease 2 (MMP-2) and MMP-9 also present increased levels of the protease inhibitor α2-macroglobulin (α2M) and its receptor, the low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1 (LRP1). In the present work, we investigated whether the protease activated… Show more

“…Furthermore, it has been suggested that the intracellular traffic of MT1-MMP toward the cell surface and its participation in cellular migration may be dependent on the tumoral or nontumoral characteristics of cells, as well as on the presence of extracellular factors that induce cellular migration, such as Col-I 57 and a 2 M, 28 among others. 44 Using two-dimensional scratch wound assays, we demonstrated that, in fact, in the Three independent experiments were performed in triplicate.…”

“…In another set of experiments, to inhibit MMPs activity, cells were preincubated with GM6001 MMP inhibitor (20 nM) for 30 minutes. 28 In addition, to inhibit the activity of PI3K, cells were also pretreated with LY-294002. In all the migration experiments and to inhibit cell proliferation, cells were preincubated with 0.5 mM hydroxyurea.…”

“…The definitive role of these independent pathways is unclear, but it has been hypothesized that they may be responsible for internalizing different subpopulations of MT1-MMP at the cell surface, as they differ in speed and localization of internalization. A recent study revealed that α 2 M induces cellular migration of Muller glial cells by endocytic recycling and intracellular distribution of MT1-MMP toward cellular protrusions [83]. Although MT1-MMP does not bind to LRP1 directly, its activity is regulated by LRP1-mediated endocytosis via α 2 M. As discussed above, CD63 tetraspanin promotes MT1-MMP internalization and lysosomal degradation [32].…”
