Abstract
Extracellular matrix metalloproteinase inducer (EMMPRIN), a glycosylated transmembrane protein that induces matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), is minimally expressed in the normal adult lung. We previously reported that it is up-regulated in murine bleomycin-induced lung injury. In this study, we determined the expression of EMMPRIN and its association with MMP-2, MMP-7, and MMP-9 in interstitial pneumonias (IPs). We performed immunohistochemistry for EMMPRIN and MMPs on lung tissue from 22 subjects with various IPs. We did bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) on 9 of these subjects and 13 others with IPs to measure the soluble EMMPRIN in BAL fluid. For comparison, immunohistochemistry or BAL was done on 14 subjects without IPs. The staining intensity for each protein was scored from 0 to 3 in various epithelial cell types. Soluble EMMPRIN in BAL fluid was measured by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Extracellular matrix metalloproteinase inducer was prominent in abnormal epithelial cells. It was more prominent in hyperplastic type II cells, compared with epithelium in alveolar bronchiolization. It was also elevated in BAL fluid from the subjects with IPs. Matrix metalloproteinases were expressed in cells expressing EMMPRIN, although the profile of MMPs varied among the different abnormal epithelial cell types with MMP-2 and MMP-7 in hyperplastic type II cells and MMP-7 and MMP-9 in cells showing squamous metaplasia and cells comprising bronchiolization. These results suggest a role of EMMPRIN in reepithelialization in IPs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To characterize the expression of basigin in ovarian endometriotic tissue, normal ovary, and endometrium during the menstrual cycle. DESIGN Controlled, retrospective study for evaluation of basigin expression in archived specimens. SETTING Academic research environment: University of Kentucky College of Medicine. PATIENT(S) Archived surgical specimens selected by retrospective chart review of age-matched (39 +/- 2.5 years) patients with and without ovarian endometriosis. INTERVENTION(S) None. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S) Expression localization of basigin mRNA and protein. RESULT(S) Basigin (mRNA and protein) was localized to granulosa cells (follicles of all stages), the ovarian surface epithelium, and granulosa and theca lutein of corpora lutea. Differential patterns of expression were apparent among samples of eutopic endometrium collected during the proliferative and secretory stages. In endometriotic lesions on the ovary, basigin was detected in the glandular epithelia and stroma of proliferative and secretory phase samples, but patterns of expression were unsynchronized with those of the eutopic endometrium from the same patient. CONCLUSION(S) The current data demonstrate unique expression patterns of basigin in the human ovary and endometriotic tissue, thereby supporting a possible role in normal ovarian function and in the dysregulation of proteolytic matrix metalloproteinases in endometriosis.

Abstract
Our laboratory was interested in characterizing the molecular composition of non-caveolar lipid rafts. Thus, we generated monoclonal antibodies to lipid raft proteins of human myelomonocytic cells. Two of these proteins, KE04p and C8orf2, were found to be highly enriched in the detergent-insoluble, buoyant fraction of sucrose gradients in a cholesterol-dependent manner. They contain an evolutionarily conserved domain placing them in the prohibitin family of proteins. In contrast to other family members, these two proteins localized to the ER. Furthermore, the extreme N-termini of KE04p and C8orf2 were found to be sufficient for heterologous targeting of GFP to the ER in the absence of classical ER retrieval motifs. We also demonstrate that all prohibitin family members rely on sequences in their extreme N-termini for their distinctive subcellular distributions including the mitochondria, plasma membrane and Golgi vesicles. Owing to their subcellular localization and their presence in lipid rafts, we have named KE04p and C8orf2, ER lipid raft protein (erlin)-1 and erlin-2, respectively. Interestingly, the ER contains relatively low levels of cholesterol and sphingolipids compared with other organelles. Thus, our data support the existence of lipid-raft-like domains within the membranes of the ER.

Abstract
Immunohistochemical and in vitro studies indicate that caveolin-1, which occurs abundantly in alveolar epithelial type I cells and microvascular endothelial cells of the lung, is selectively downregulated in the alveolar epithelium following exposure to bleomycin. Bleomycin is also known to enhance the expression levels of metalloproteinases and of the metalloproteinase inducer CD147/EMMPRIN in lung cells. Experimental in vitro data has showed that MMP-inducing activity of CD147 is under the control of caveolin-1. We studied the effects of bleomycin on the expression of caveolin-1, CD147 and metalloproteinases using an alveolar epithelial rat cell line R3/1 with properties of both alveolar type I and type II cells and explanted rat lung slices. In parallel, retrospective samples of bleomycin-induced fibrosis in rats and mice as well as samples of wild type and caveolin-1 knockout animals were included for immunohistochemical comparison with in vitro data. Here we report that treatment with bleomycin downregulates caveolin-1 and increases CD147 and MMP-2 and -9 expression/activity in R3/1 cells using RT-PCR, Western blot analysis, MMP-2 activity assay and immunocytochemistry. Immunofluorescence double labeling revealed that caveolin-1 and CD147 were not colocalized in vitro. The in vitro findings were confirmed through immunohistochemical studies of the proteins in paraffin embedded precision-cut rat lung slices and in fibrotic rat lung tissues. The caveolin-1-negative hyperplastic ATII cells exhibited enhanced immunoreactivity for CD147 and MMP-2. Caveolin-1-negative ATI cells of fibrotic samples were mostly CD147 negative. There were no differences in the pulmonary expression of CD147 between the normal and caveolin-1 deficient animals. The results demonstrate that bleomycin-induced lung injury is associated with an increase in CD147 expression and MMP activity, particularly in alveolar epithelial cells. In addition, our data exclude any functional interaction between CD147 and alveolar epithelial caveolin-1.

Abstract
Gene expression profiling of oral premalignant (OPM) cells and normal oral epithelial (NOR) cells showed that EMMPRIN expression was markedly upregulated in OPM cells compared to NOR cells. We used an oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) progression model composed of cell lines, organotypic cultures and tissue specimens to characterize EMMPRIN expression patterns by microarray analysis, qRT-PCR, Western blotting and immunohistochemistry. EMMPRIN levels are elevated in OPM and primary and metastatic OSCC cells as compared to NOR. EMMPRIN was detected as high and low glycosylated forms in the OPM and OSCC cellular extracts and was released in the media by OSCC cells but not by OPM cells. EMMPRIN expression in an organotypic culture model of normal and OPM mucosae mirrored the expression patterns in the respective tissues in vivo. EMMPRIN expression was limited to basal cells of normal, benign hyperkeratotic and inflammatory (lichen planus) oral mucosa. EMMPRIN expression is increased in dysplastic leukoplakias spreading to more superficial layers, and its expression levels correlated significantly with the degree of dysplasia. Primary and metastatic OSCC showed strong cell surface expression of EMMPRIN. These results suggest that EMMPRIN overexpression occurs at a very early stage of oral carcinogenesis and plays a contributing role in OSCC tumorigenesis.

Abstract
CD9, a tetraspanin protein, makes crucial contributions to sperm egg fusion, other cellular fusions, epidermal growth factor receptor signaling, cell motility, and tumor suppression. Here we characterize a low affinity anti-CD9 antibody, C9BB, which binds preferentially to homoclustered CD9. Using mAb C9BB as a tool, we show that cell surface CD9 homoclustering is promoted by expression of alpha3beta1 and alpha6beta4 integrins and by palmitoylation of the CD9 and beta4 proteins. Conversely, CD9 is shifted toward heteroclusters upon expression of CD9 partner proteins (EWI-2 and EWI-F) or other tetraspanins, or upon ablation of CD9 palmitoylation. Furthermore, unpalmitoylated CD9 showed enhanced EWI-2 association, thereby demonstrating a previously unappreciated role for tetraspanin palmitoylation, and underscoring how depalmitoylation and EWI-2 association may collaborate to shift CD9 from homo- to heteroclusters. In conclusion, we have used a novel molecular probe (mAb C9BB) to demonstrate the existence of multiple types of CD9 complex on the cell surface. A shift from homo- to heteroclustered CD9 may be functionally significant because the latter was especially obvious on malignant epithelial tumor cells. Hence, because of its specialized properties, C9BB may be more useful than other anti-CD9 antibodies for monitoring CD9 during tumor progression.

Abstract
CD147 is a widely expressed plasma membrane protein that has been implicated in a variety of physiological and pathological activities. It is best known for its ability to function as extracellular matrix metalloproteinase inducer (hence the other name for this protein, EMMPRIN), but has also been shown to regulate lymphocyte responsiveness, monocarboxylate transporter expression and spermatogenesis. These functions reflect multiple interacting partners of CD147. Recently, interaction of CD147 with proteins of the cyclophilin family has been demonstrated and activity of CD147 as a signalling receptor to extracellular cyclophilins A and B has been shown. Given that extracellular cyclophilins are potent chemotactic agents for various immune cells, further studies of the role of cyclophilin-CD147 interaction in inflammation followed. They demonstrated that agents targeting CD147 or cyclophilin had a significant anti-inflammatory effect in animal models of acute or chronic lung diseases and rheumatoid arthritis. Here, we review the current knowledge about interactions between CD147 and cyclophilins.

Abstract
HAb18G/CD147 is a highly glycosylated transmembrane protein belonging to the immunoglobulin superfamily. Our previous studies have demonstrated that overexpressing HAb18G/CD147 enhances the metastatic potentials of human hepatoma cells. In the present study, to investigate the glycosylation characteristic of HAb18G/CD147 in human hepatoma cells, HAb18G/CD147 was first purified from human FHCC-98 hepatoma cells by immunoaffinity chromatography, and then introduced into human fibroblasts culture system for matrix metalloproteinases induction. As a result, the elevated levels of matrix metalloproteinases secreted by fibroblasts were detected by gelatin zymography. The lysates of human hepatoma FHCC-98 cell revealed two major forms of HAb18G/CD147 (43-66 and 35 kDa) by western blot assay. To elucidate whether the variation of molecule size were caused by different glycosylation, two different approaches were employed to accomplish this goal: deglycosylation with N-glycosylation inhibitor tunicamycin or endoglycosidases. A single deglycosylated core protein with molecular weight approximately 27 kDa was obtained from both methods. Furthermore, the results of endoglycosidases treatment also showed that two forms of HAb18G/CD147 contain different types of oligosaccharide chains, thus sensitive to different endoglycosidase. In conclusion, the present study demonstrated that purified native HAb18G/CD147 has the bioactivity of stimulating human fibroblasts to produce elevated levels of matrix metalloproteinases, and that the two different forms of HAb18G/CD147 are derived from the single core protein but differ in their degree and types of glycosylation.

Abstract
CD147 which is a regulator of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) production on the surface of many malignant tumor cells, shows a highly specific association with caveolin-1 (Cav-1). As a result of heterogeneous N-glycosylation, CD147 exists in both highly glycosylated form, HG-CD147 ( approximately 40-60kDa) and lowly glycosylated form, LG-CD147 ( approximately 32kDa). This study investigated the possible role of Cav-1 in CD147 glycosylation in the HcaF, HcaP and Hepa1-6 mouse hepatocarcinoma cell lines, which have high, low and no metastatic potential in the lymph nodes, respectively, and in the normal mouse liver cell line IAR-20. Using an RNA interference (RNAi) strategy, we showed that the down-regulation of Cav-1 in Hca-F/RNAi cells could suppress the conversion of LG-CD147 to HG-CD147, down-regulate MMP-11 expression and decrease Hca-F/RNAi cell invasion. Conversely, a stable high expression of Cav-1 in Hepa1-6/Cav-1 cell could cause a specific increase of HG-CD147, up-regulate MMP-11 protein expression and enhance Hepa1-6/Cav-1 cell invasion. In conclusion, Cav-1 expression leads to an increased proportion of HG-CD147 relative to LG-CD147, increased production of MMP-11 and a higher invasive capability. Cav-1 is therefore proposed to act as both an oncogene and a tumor suppressor gene, and could represent a new potential target for gene therapy.

Abstract
CD147, also known as extracellular matrix metalloproteinase inducer, is a regulator of matrix metalloproteinase production and also serves as a signaling receptor for extracellular cyclophilins. Previously, we demonstrated that cell surface expression of CD147 is sensitive to cyclophilin-binding drug cyclosporin A, suggesting involvement of a cyclophilin in the regulation of intracellular transport of CD147. In this report, we identify this cyclophilin as cyclophilin 60 (Cyp60), a distinct member of the cyclophilin family of proteins. CD147 co-immunoprecipitated with Cyp60, and confocal immunofluorescent microscopy revealed intracellular co-localization of Cyp60 and CD147. This interaction with Cyp60 involved proline 211 of CD147, which was shown previously to be critical for interaction between CD147 and another cyclophilin, cyclophilin A, in solution. Mutation of this proline residue abrogated co-immunoprecipitation of CD147 and Cyp60 and reduced surface expression of CD147 on the plasma membrane. Suppression of Cyp60 expression using RNA interference had an effect similar to that of cyclosporin A: reduction of cell surface expression of CD147. These results suggest that Cyp60 plays an important role in the translocation of CD147 to the cell surface. Therefore, Cyp60 may present a novel target for therapeutic interventions in diseases where CD147 functions as a pathogenic factor, such as cancer, human immunodeficiency virus infection, or rheumatoid arthritis.

Abstract
The present study examined the effect of hepatoma-associated antigen HAb18G (homologous to CD147) expression on the NO/cGMP-regulated Ca2+ mobilization to induce matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) production and attenuate adhesion ability of mouse fibroblast NIH/3T3 cells. HAb18G/CD147 cDNA was transfected into fibroblast 3T3 cells to obtain a cell line stably expressing HAb18G/CD147, t3T3, as demonstrated by immunofluorescence staining and flow cytometry assays. 8-Bromo-cGMP inhibited the thapsigargin-induced Ca2+ entry in 3T3 cells, whereas an inhibitor of protein kinase G, KT5823 (1 microM), led to an increase in Ca2+ entry. Expression of HAb18G/CD147 in t3T3 cells decreased the inhibitory response to cGMP. A similar effect on the Ca2+ entry was observed in 3T3 cells in response to an NO donor, (+/-)-S-nitroso-N-acetylpenicillamine (SNAP). The inhibitory effect of SNAP on the thapsigargin-induced Ca2+ entry was also reduced in HAb18G/CD147-expressing t3T3 cells, indicating a role for HAb18G/CD 147 in NO/cGMP-regulated Ca2+ entry. Results of gelatin zymography assays showed that addition of extracellular Ca2+ induced MMP (MMP-2, MMP-9) release and activation in a dose-dependent manner, and expression of HAb18G/CD147 enhanced the secretion of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in 3T3 cells. 8-Bromo-cGMP and SNAP reduced the production of MMP in 3T3 cells but not in t3T3 with HAb18G/CD147 expression. RT-PCR experiments substantiated that the expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 mRNA in HAb18G/CD 147-expressing t3T3 cell was significantly greater than that in 3T3 cells. Experiments investigating adhesion potentials demonstrated that HAb18G/CD147-expressing t3T3 cells pretreated with Ca2+ attached to Matrigel-coated culture plates significantly less efficiently than 3T3 cells. The proportion of attached cells could be increased by treatment with 8-bromo-cGMP and SNAP in 3T3 cells, but not in t3T3. These results suggest that HAb18G/CD147 attenuates adhesion potentials in fibroblasts by enhancing the secretion of MMP through NO/cGMP-sensitive capacitative Ca2+ entry.

Abstract
Cell surface CD147 protein promotes production of matrix metalloproteinases and hyaluronan, associates with monocarboxylate transporters and integrins, and is involved in reproductive, neural, inflammatory, and tumor functions. Here we combined covalent cross-linking, mass spectrometric protein identification, and co-immunoprecipitation to show selective CD147 association with three major types of transporters (CD98 heavy chain (CD98hc)-L-type amino acid transporter, ASCT2, and monocarboxylate transporters) as well as a regulator of cell proliferation (epithelial cell adhesion molecule). In the assembly of these multicomponent complexes, CD147 and CD98hc play a central organizing role. RNA interference knock-down experiments established a strong connection between CD147 and CD98hc expression and a strong positive association of CD147 (and CD98hc) with cell proliferation. As the CD147-CD98hc complex and proliferation diminished, AMP-activated protein kinase (a cellular "fuel gauge") became activated, indicating a disturbance of cellular energy metabolism. Our data point to a CD147-CD98 cell surface supercomplex that plays a critical role in energy metabolism, likely by coordinating transport of lactate and amino acids. Furthermore we showed how covalent cross-linking, together with mass spectrometry, can be used to identify closely associated transmembrane proteins. This approach should also be applicable to many other types of transmembrane proteins besides those associated with CD98hc and CD147.

Abstract
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) play a central role in normal tissue remodeling and disease, they regulate tumor microenvironment and their expression is increased in most human cancers. Targeting their activity remains a major challenge. Their production and activation is tightly regulated by complex mechanisms that include cytokines and growth factors, cell-matrix and cell-cell interactions. The observations of increased MMP level at the epithelio-stromal interface led to the identification of EMMPRIN/CD147, a membrane spanning molecule highly expressed in tumor cells, that stimulates MMPs production in neighboring fibroblasts. Later studies have shown that EMMPRIN can also induce MMP in the same population of cells. Elevated EMMPRIN level was detected in numerous malignant tumors and has been correlated with tumor progression in experimental and clinical conditions. The presence and modulation of EMMPRIN in normal tissues associated with increased MMP expression suggests that this EMMPRIN-mediated MMP induction could be a common mechanism in non-tumoral physiological and/or pathological situations. Targeting EMMPRIN in cancer and other pathological conditions such arthritis and ulceration appears a promising future therapeutic strategy, but requires a better understanding of its mode of action and regulation. Potential regulators that influence EMMPRIN level and its MMP inducing activity include growth factors, hormones, glycosylation and membrane shedding. This review will discuss the recent findings concerning these diverse regulatory mechanisms in various physiological and pathological situations.

Abstract
Caveolae are specialized plasma membrane subdomains capable of transport and sophisticated compartmentalization of cell signaling. Numerous cell functions, including cell type-specific functions, involve caveolae and require caveolin-1, the major protein component of these organelles. Caveolae are particularly abundant in endothelial cells and participate in endothelial transcytosis, vascular permeability, vasomotor tone control, and vascular reactivity. Caveolin-1 drives the formation of plasma membrane caveolae and anchors them to the actin cytoskeleton, modulates cell interaction with the extracellular matrix, pulls together and regulates signaling molecules, and transports cholesterol. Via these functions, caveolin-1 might play an important role in cell movement through control of cell membrane composition and membrane surface expansion, polarization of signaling molecules and matrix proteolysis, and/or cytoskeleton remodeling. Caveolae and caveolin-1 are polarized in migrating endothelial cells, indicating they may play a role in cell motility. Several studies have shown that manipulation of caveolin-1 expression affects cell migration in a complex way. We are reviewing the current data and hypotheses in favor of an essential role for caveolae in cell migration.

Abstract
AIM: To obtain mouse anti-human monoclonal antibodies against recombinant extracellular domain of HAb18G (HAb18Ged), and to analyze and identify its character and biological function.
METHODS: Balb/c mice were immunized with HAb18Ged. Hybridoma cell was screened by cell fusion and subcloning approach. The monoclonal antibody in the ascites was purified by ion exchange chromatography and was identified by fluorescence-activated cell sorting analysis (FACs) and immunohistochemistry. Gelatin zymography and collagenase type I zymography were used to analyze the effects of HAb18Gedomab1 on activation and production of matrix metalloproteinase (MMPs); Matrigel-boyden degradation chamber method was used to evaluate the infiltrative cells ratio.
RESULTS: A hybridoma cell HAb18Gedomab1 stably secreting anti-HAb18Ged monoclonal antibody was obtained. The titer of this McAb in ascites was 1:106. The purity of the McAb was higher than 90%. The McAb belonged to IgG1 subclass. HAb18Gedomab1 showed high specificity and affinity to the antigen of FHCC-98 cell membrane and the tissue of hepatocellular carcinoma. The McAb induced production and activation of MMP-2, MMP-9, MMP-1 and MMP-8 in mouse fibroblast cells (3T3), and also promoted the degradation of reconstituted basement membrane.
CONCLUSION: HAb18Gedomab1 can bind specifically to HAb18Ged protein. The McAb can also induce production and activation of MMPs and promote the degradation of reconstituted basement membrane.

Abstract
Cell surface CD147 shows remarkable variations in size (31-65 kDa) because of heterogeneous N-glycosylation, with the most highly glycosylated forms functioning to induce matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) production. Here we show that all three CD147 N-glycosylation sites make similar contributions to both high and low glycoforms (HG- and LG-CD147). l-Phytohemagglutinin lectin binding and swainsonine inhibition experiments indicated that HG-CD147 contains N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase V-catalyzed, beta1,6-branched, polylactosamine-type sugars, which account for its excess size. Therefore, CD147, which is itself elevated on invasive tumor cells, may make a major contribution to the abundance of beta1,6-branched polylactosamine sugars that appear on invasive tumor cells. It was shown previously that caveolin-1 associates with CD147, thus inhibiting CD147 self-aggregation and MMP induction; now we show that caveolin-1 associates with LG-CD147 and restricts the biosynthetic conversion of LG-CD147 to HG-CD147. In addition, HG-CD147 (but not LG-CD147) was preferentially captured as a multimer after treatment of cells with a homobifunctional cross-linking agent and was exclusively recognized by monoclonal antibody AAA6, a reagent that selectively recognizes self-associated CD147 and inhibits CD147-mediated MMP induction. In conclusion, we have 1) determined the biochemical basis for the unusual size variation in CD147, 2) established that CD147 is a major carrier of beta1,6-branched polylactosamine sugars on tumor cells, and 3) determined that caveolin-1 can inhibit the conversion of LG-CD147 to HG-CD147. Because it is HG-CD147 that self-aggregates and stimulates MMP induction, we now have a mechanism to explain how caveolin-1 inhibits these processes. These results help explain the previously established tumor suppressor functions of caveolin-1.

Abstract
Unstimulated human fibrosarcoma cells (HT1080) constitutively secrete matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP 2) as a proenzyme requiring proteolytic cleavage by membrane type-1 MMP (MT1 MMP) for activation. Physiological and pharmacological stimuli induce clustering of MT1 MMP/tissue inhibitor of MMP 2 "receptors", promoting binding and activation of MMP 2. We now report that cholesterol depleted HT1080 cells accumulated MT1 MMP on the cell surface and activated MMP 2. A specific inhibitor of mitogen activated protein kinase kinase 1/2 inhibited both MMP 2 activation and extracellular signal-related kinase phosphorylation induced by cholesterol depletion. Our data indicate that the cholesterol content of unstimulated cells is critical for secretion of MMP 2 as an inactive zymogen and control of pericellular proteolysis.
