Induction of Matrix Metalloproteinase-9 in Keratinocytes by Histamine

Abstract: Mast cells and their mediator, histamine, are well-recognized effectors in immediate allergy, but their role in tissue remodeling and chronic inflammation has also been the focus of intense research during the past decade. Gschwandtner et al. (2008, this issue) report that histamine can induce MMP-9 expression in keratinocytes, promote collagen type IV degradation in the basement membrane, and stimulate keratinocytes, leading to increased T-cell transmigration through an artificial basement membrane.

“…Breakdown of the ECM must occur for tumors to become mobile and relocate themselves. In keratinocytes, histamine increases the expression of MMP‐9 by way of the H1HR38 and contributes to the active migratory potential through the basement membrane 39. A correlation between MMPs and pancreatic cancer has been demonstrated and in this study histamine, by way of H1 and H2 HRs, increased the tumoral progression of pancreatic cancer 26.…”

“…Histamine concentration in MC secretory granules can be up to 100 mmol L À1 . 33 Mastocytosis has been reported in OLP where degranulated MCs are considered the plausible source of 'burst-released' histamine towards BM and oral epithelium. 15 Our results indicate a negative-feedback effect of micromolar histamine on HDC expression in HOKs, and yet HDC was increased in OLP.…”

“…During inflammation, immune cells, mainly neutrophils, can effectively infiltrate into the dermal layer. Keratinocytes, mast cells and infiltrated neutrophils in skin have been reported to secrete MMP-9 for tissue remodeling in response to inflammation [34-36]. MMP-9 has further been reported to be directly mechanistically involved in the increases of vascular permeability [37-39].…”
