Abstract
Bone tissue is a dynamic structure that is involved in maintaining the homeostasis of the body due to its multidirectional functions, such as its protective, endocrine, or immunological role. Specialized cells and the extracellular matrix (ECM) are responsible for the remodeling of specific bone structures, which alters the biomechanical properties of the tissue. Imbalances in bone-forming elements lead to the formation and progression of bone diseases. The most important family of enzymes responsible for bone ECM remodeling are matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs)-enzymes physiologically present in the body's tissues and cells. The activity of MMPs is maintained in a state of balance; disruption of their activity is associated with the progression of many groups of diseases, including those of the skeletal system. This review summarizes the current understanding of the role of MMPs in bone physiology and the pathophysiology of bone tissue and describes their role in specific skeletal disorders. Additionally, this work collects data on the potential of MMPs as bio-markers for specific skeletal diseases.

The Role of MMP8 in Cancer: A Systematic Review. Int J Mol Sci 2019; 20:ijms20184506. [PMID: 31514474 PMCID: PMC6770849 DOI: 10.3390/ijms20184506] [Citation(s) in RCA: 57] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/14/2019] [Revised: 09/06/2019] [Accepted: 09/08/2019] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) have traditionally been considered as tumor promoting enzymes as they degrade extracellular matrix components, thus increasing the invasion of cancer cells. It has become evident, however, that MMPs can also cleave and alter the function of various non-matrix bioactive molecules, leading to both tumor promoting and suppressive effects. We applied systematic review guidelines to study MMP8 in cancer including the use of MMP8 as a prognostic factor or as a target/anti-target in cancer treatment, and its molecular mechanisms. A total of 171 articles met the inclusion criteria. The collective evidence reveals that in breast, skin and oral tongue cancer, MMP8 inhibits cancer cell invasion and proliferation, and protects patients from metastasis via cleavage of non-structural substrates. Conversely, in liver and gastric cancers, high levels of MMP8 worsen the prognosis. Expression and genetic alterations of MMP8 can be used as a prognostic factor by examination of the tumor and serum/plasma. We conclude, that MMP8 has differing effects on cancers depending on their tissue of origin. The use of MMP8 as a prognostic factor alone, or with other factors, seems to have potential. The molecular mechanisms of MMP8 in cancer further emphasize its role as an important regulator of bioactive molecules.

Abstract
Background Chondrosarcoma is the second most common primary malignant bone tumor. Because of their heterogeneity, with differences in invasive and metastatic behavior, it is important to identify biological markers that will allow for a more accurate estimation of prognosis in patients with these tumors. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) play a crucial role in tumor progression, invasion and metastasis. The mechanism of tumor progression dependent of MMPs is complex and influences malignant transformation, angiogenesis and tumor growth at the primary and metastatic sites. The purpose of this study was to investigate immunohistochemicaly the influence of MMP-1, MMP-3, MMP-9 and MMP-13 expression on prognostic parameter in chondrosarcoma. Methods We investigated tissue samples of 28 patients with chondrosarcoma. Immunohistochemical staining to evaluate the expression of MMP-1, MMP-3, MMP-9 and MMP-13 was performed. Subsequently, the expression level was correlated with metastatic potential, histological grading and overall survival in patients with this neoplasm. Results In consideration of semi quantitative scoring 64% of chondrosarcoma were scored as positive for MMP-1, 46% for MMP-3, 61% for MMP-9. The specimens had shown no expression of MMP-13. High expression of MMP-9 was associated with better histological differentiation, decreased metastatic potential and favourable overall survival. No correlation was found for expression of MMP-1, MMP-3 or MMP-13. Conclusions MMP-1, MMP-3 and MMP-9 are expressed in chondrosarcoma. Our findings suggest that the expression of MMP-9 is associated with clinical outcome parameters in chondrosarcoma.

Abstract
Matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) is a potential biomarker for chondrosarcoma that is overexpressed at the invading edges of articular cartilage, and its expression correlates with poor survival rates. However, the molecular mechanisms of MMP-1 regulation and its potential contribution to chondrosarcoma cell invasion have yet to be elucidated, especially in shear-activated cells. Using molecular biology tools and an in vitro fluid shear model, we report that shear stress upregulates cyclic AMP (cAMP) and interleukin-1β (IL-1β) release, which in turn promotes the invasion of chondrosarcoma cells via the induction of MMP-1 in a phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3-K)- and ERK1/2-dependent manner. Activated PI3-K and ERK1/2 signaling pathways phosphorylate c-Jun, which in turn transactivates MMP-1 in human chondrosarcoma cells. Collectively, fluid shear stress upregulates matrix MMP-1 expression, which is responsible for the enhanced invasion of human chondrosarcoma cells.

Abstract
The mechanisms of chondrosarcoma development are just beginning to be unraveled. The distinction between benign and low-grade malignant cartilaginous tumors is difficult and is based mainly on radiological and clinicopathological features. In this review, the conventional chondrosarcomas are subdivided into central and secondary peripheral chondrosarcomas, based on their different genetic and clinicopathological background. Thus far, no diagnostic markers have been identified for central tumors. Bcl-2 is a good diagnostic marker that can be used in the distinction between osteochondroma and low-grade secondary peripheral chondrosarcoma. For the prognosis of chondrosarcomas, the best and most commonly used marker at present is histological grade. Several molecular markers, recapitulated in this paper, have been tested to see if they aid in determining diagnosis and predicting prognosis, but most are not independent of histological grade.

Abstract
Matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) activity has been linked to numerous disease processes from arthritis to ulcer. Its proteolytic activity has been implicated inconsistently in different steps of tumourigenesis and metastasis. The discrepancies may be attributable to our limited understanding of MMP-1 production, cellular trafficking, secretion and local activation. Specifically, regulation of MMP-1 directional delivery versus its general extracellular matrix secretion is largely unknown. Inhibition of prenylation by farnesyl transferase inhibitor (FTI-276) decreased extracellular MMP-1 and subsequently reduced invasiveness by 30%. Parallel, stable cell line RNAi knockdown of MMP-1 confirmed its role in cellular invasiveness. The prenylation agonist farnesyl pyrophosphate (FPP) partially normalized FTI-276 inhibited extracellular MMP-1 levels and invasion capacity while transiently delayed its cellular podia distribution. MMP-1 directional delivery to these structures were confirmed by combination of a MMP-1–specific fluorogenic substrate, a MMP1-Ds-Red fusion protein construct expression and DQ-collagen degradation, which demonstrated coupling of directional delivery and activation. MetaMorph analysis of cellular lamellipodia structures indicated that FTI-276 inhibited formation and delivery to these structures. Farnesyl pyrophosphate partially restored lamellipodia area but not MMP-1 delivery under the time frame investigated. These results indicate that MMP-1 directional delivery to podia structures is involved in the invasive activity of sarcoma cells, and this process is prenylation sensitive.

Abstract
Chondrosarcoma is a type of highly malignant tumor with a potent capacity to invade locally and cause distant metastasis. Chondrosarcoma shows a predilection for metastasis to the lungs. IL-6 is a multifunctional cytokine that is associated with the disease status and outcomes of cancers. However, the effect of IL-6 on the migration activity of human chondrosarcoma cells is mostly unknown. Here, we found that IL-6 increased the migration and expression of MMP-13 in human chondrosarcoma cells. We also found that human chondrosarcoma tissues had significant expression of IL-6, which was higher than that in normal cartilage. IL-6-mediated migration and MMP-13 up-regulation were attenuated by anti-IL-6 receptor antibody, Ras, Raf-1, and a MEK inhibitor. Activation of the Ras, Raf-1, MEK, ERK, and NF-κB signaling pathways after IL-6 treatment was demonstrated, and IL-6-induced MMP-13 expression and migration activity were inhibited by the specific inhibitor and mutant Ras, Raf-1, MEK, ERK, and NF-κB cascades. In addition, migration-prone sublines demonstrated that cells with increasing migration ability had greater expression of IL-6 and MMP-13. Taken together, these results indicate that IL-6 and IL-6 receptor interaction enhances migration of chondrosarcoma through an increase in MMP-13 production.

Abstract
Bradykinin (BK) is an inflammatory mediator, and shows elevated levels in regions of severe injury and inflammatory diseases. BK has recently been shown to be involved in carcinogenesis and cancer progression. In this study, we found that BK increased the migration and the expression of alpha2beta1 integrin in human chondrosarcoma cells. We also found that human chondrosarcoma tissues had significantly higher expression of the B1 and B2 receptors comparing to normal cartilage. BK-mediated migration and integrin up-regulation was attenuated by B1 and B2 BK receptor siRNA or antagonist. Activations of phospholipase C (PLC), protein kinase Cdelta (PKCdelta), and NF-kappaB pathways after BK treatment was demonstrated, and BK-induced integrin expression and migration activity was inhibited by the specific inhibitor of PLC, PKCdelta, and NF-kappaB cascades. Taken together, our results indicated that BK enhances the migration of chondrosarcoma cells by increasing alpha2beta1 integrin expression through the BK receptors/PLC/PKCdelta/NF-kappaB signal transduction pathway.

Abstract
Chondrosarcoma is a malignant primary bone tumor that responds poorly to both chemotherapy and radiation therapy. This study is the first to investigate the anticancer effects of the new phloroglucinol derivative (2,4-bis(2-fluorophenylacetyl)phloroglucinol; BFPP) in human chondrosarcoma cells. BFPP induced cell apoptosis in two human chondrosarcoma cell lines, JJ012 and SW1353 but not in primary chondrocytes. BFPP triggered endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, as indicated by changes in cytosol calcium levels, and increased glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78) expression, but failed to show the same effects on GRP94 expression. BFPP also increased calpain expression and activity. Transfection of cells with GRP78 or calpain siRNA reduced BFPP-mediated cell apoptosis in JJ012 cells. Importantly, animal studies have revealed a dramatic 50% reduction in tumor volume after 21 days of treatment. This study demonstrates novel anticancer activity of BFPP against human chondrosarcoma cells and in murine tumor models.

Abstract
Chondrosarcoma is a type of highly malignant tumor with a capacity to invade locally and cause distant metastasis. Chondrosarcoma shows a predilection for metastasis to the lungs. Adiponectin is a protein hormone secreted predominantly by differentiated adipocytes and is involved in energy homeostasis. However, the effect of adiponectin on migration activity in human chondrosarcoma cells is mostly unknown. We found that adiponectin increased the migration and expression of alpha2beta1 integrin in human chondrosarcoma cells. The protein and messenger RNA expression of adiponectin receptor (AdipoR1 and AdipoR2) in chondrosarcoma patients and chondrosarcoma cell lines were significantly higher than the normal cartilage. Moreover, primary chondrosarcoma and chondrosarcoma cell lines (SW1353 and JJ012) were more invasive than normal chondrocytes. Adiponectin-mediated migration and integrin expression was attenuated by 5'-adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) small interfering RNA and an AMPK inhibitor (Ara A and compound C). Activation of p38 and nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-kappaB) pathways after adiponectin treatment was demonstrated, and adiponectin-induced expression of integrins and migration activity was inhibited by the specific inhibitor and mutant of p38 and NF-kappaB cascades. This study showed for the first time that adiponectin mediates the migration of human chondrosarcoma cells. One mechanism underlying adiponectin-directed migration was transcriptional upregulation of alpha2beta1 integrin and activation of AdipoR receptor, AMPK, p38 and NF-kappaB pathways.

Abstract
Chondrosarcoma is a low-grade sarcoma characterized by developing metastases and high local recurrence rate. Bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) plays an essential role in tumor progression and metastasis. Here we found that BMP-2 induced the migration of human chondrosarcoma cells (JJ012 cells). BMP-2 also increased the secretion of metalloproteinase-13 (MMP-13) in JJ012 cells, as shown by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction, western blot and zymographic analysis. The MMP-13 small interfering RNA inhibited the BMP-2-induced MMP-13 expression and thereby significantly inhibited the BMP-2-induced cell migration. Furthermore, phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase inhibitor (PI3K; Ly294002) or Akt inhibitor suppressed BMP-2-induced MMP-13 mRNA expression. Transient transfection with dominant negative p85 and Akt mutant also showed that the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway was involved in BMP-2-induced MMP-13 expression. In addition, AP-1 decoy oligodeoxynucleotide also suppressed the MMP-13 promoter activity enhanced by BMP-2. Moreover, BMP-2 increased the binding of c-Fos and c-Jun to the AP-1 element on the MMP-13 promoter. Taken together, our results indicated that BMP-2 enhanced the invasiveness of chondrosarcoma cells by increasing MMP-13 expression through the PI3K, Akt, c-Fos/c-Jun and AP-1 signal transduction pathway.

Abstract
Leptin, an adipocyte-derived cytokine that is closely associated with obesity, has recently been shown to be involved in carcinogenesis and cancer progression. Integrins are the major adhesive molecules in mammalian cells and have been associated with metastasis of cancer cells. In this study, we found that leptin increased the migration and the expression of alphavbeta3 integrin in human chondrosarcoma cells. We also found that human chondrosarcoma tissues and chondrosarcoma cell lines had significant expression of the long form (OBRl) leptin receptor, which was higher than that in normal cartilage and human primary chondrocyte. Leptin-mediated migration and integrin upregulation were attenuated by OBRl receptor antisense oligonucleotide. Activations of insulin receptor substrate (IRS)-1, phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K), Akt and nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) pathways after leptin treatment were demonstrated, and leptin-induced expression of integrin and migration activity was inhibited by the specific inhibitor, small-interfering RNA and mutant of IRS-1, PI3K, Akt and NF-kappaB cascades. Taken together, our results indicated that leptin enhances the migration of chondrosarcoma cells by increasing alphavbeta3 integrin expression through the OBR1/IRS-1/PI3K/Akt/NF-kappaB signal transduction pathway.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) play an important role in the modeling and remodeling of the extracellular matrix in both physiologic and pathologic states and thus plays an important role in tumor progression. Human collagenase-3 (MMP-13) is a member of matrix metalloproteinase family of enzymes that was originally identified in breast carcinomas and subsequently detected during fetal ossification and in arthritic processes. AIM The present study was designed to investigate the expression MMP-13 and to correlate its expression with clinicopathological parameters in chondrosarcoma of the jaws. METHODS Archival tumor tissues from 11 patients with chondrosarcoma of the jaws were analyzed by immunohistochemistry for the expression of MMP-13. Clinical information was obtained through the computerized retrospective database from the tumor registry between 1998 to 2006. RESULTS Eight of 11 cases (72.8 %) of chondrosarcomas showed a positive reaction for MMP-13, whereas two cases of normal cartilage were negative for this collagenase. As regard the clinicopathological parameters, there was no correlation between MMP-13 expression and sex, age and tumor site. While, there were significant associations between MMP-13 expression and both of mitotic counts and necrosis. On the other hand, there was a significant difference between low and high grade tumors (P < 0.05) regarding MMP-13 expression. Also, there was no significant correlation between MMP-13 expression in primary lesions and their local recurrence. CONCLUSION MMP-13 is expressed in the majority of chondrosarcoma of the jaws. It is also noteworthy that the expression of MMP-13 may be related to tumor biological aggressiveness and used to aid in predicting patient's poor prognosis.

Abstract
Previous work indicates that matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) gene expression is a prognostic factor for local recurrence and metastasis in human chondrosarcoma. The current study evaluates the effects of MMP-1 knock-down via RNA interference on chondrosarcoma metastasis in vitro. Of nine siRNA oligos tested, one showed a 90% inhibitory effect on MMP-1 gene expression. Stable attenuation of MMP-1 in chondrosarcoma cells was achieved by using a plasmid vector-based siRNA system. Pronounced MMP-1 activity suppression was accompanied by marked inhibition of tumor cell invasion. Cells in which MMP-1 has been stably silenced are useful tools to elucidate the mechanism of MMP-1 mediated tumor metastasis.

Abstract
PURPOSE Increased levels of matrix metalloproteinase 1 (MMP-1) expression have been associated with poor outcome in chondrosarcoma. The existence of a single nucleotide polymorphism creating an Ets-binding site in the MMP-1 promoter may be one mechanism for elevated MMP-1 transcription. The aim of our study was to identify the prevalence of this single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in chondrosarcoma patients, to determine its correlation with disease outcome, and to discern whether it could serve as a prognostic marker in patients with chondrosarcoma. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN Sixty-seven chondrosarcoma specimens were selected sequentially from an established tumor bank with a median duration of 47 months follow-up (range, 24 to 179 months). DNA was extracted, amplified with PCR, and sequenced to determine presence (GG) or absence of the Ets-binding site created by the SNP. RESULTS Eighteen (27%) samples were homozygous for the absence of the Ets site, 34 (51%) were heterozygous for the SNP, and 15 (22%) were homozygous for the SNP. The 5-year overall survival rate for patients was 78, 80, and 84%, respectively (P = 0.5527). The disease-free survival rate was 16, 63, and 76%, respectively (P = 0.0801). The 5-year disease-free survival rate for patients with the homozygous G/G genotype was 16%, compared with 71% for patients who were either homozygous or heterozygous for the GG allele (P = 0.0444). CONCLUSIONS Despite a statistical correlation between MMP-1 gene expression and outcome in chondrosarcoma, this study demonstrates an absence of a correlation between the presence of the SNP and prognosis in patients with chondrosarcoma.

Abstract
Previous work in our laboratory led to the cloning, from the same parent tumor cell line (MDA-MB-435), of two human breast cancer cell lines (M-4A4 and NM-2C5) with opposite metastatic phenotypes. Additional investigations revealed that the nonmetastatic cell line NM-2C5 overexpressed the neutrophil collagenase, matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-8, relative to its partner. Because other studies have implicated the MMP family in promoting tumor metastasis, we investigated the apparently paradoxical expression of MMP-8 in these cell lines. By genetic engineering, we inverted its relative levels of expression in the two partners and studied the effects on the behavior of the tumors that they generated in athymic mice. Knock-down of expression in NM-2C5 cells by transduction with a sequence encoding a specific ribozyme and overexpression of MMP-8 in M-4A4 cells by retroviral transduction both strikingly changed metastatic performance in opposite directions, indicating that this gene plays a role in the regulation of tumor metastasis.

Abstract
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) play a crucial role in tumor cell invasion and metastasis. Expression of MMP-1 has been reported as a prognostic predictor of recurrence in human chondrosarcoma, and studies using human chondrosarcoma cell lines indicate that MMP-1 expression levels correlate with in vitro invasiveness. These observations suggest that MMP-1 activity has a central role in cell egress from the primary tumor at an early step in the metastatic cascade. In this study, siRNA was used to investigate whether knock down of the MMP-1 gene could be used to inhibit invasiveness in a human chondrosarcoma cell line. The inhibitory effect of siRNA on endogenous MMP-1 gene expression and protein synthesis was demonstrated via RT-PCR, Northern blotting, Western blotting, collagenase activity assay, and an in vitro cell migration assay. The siRNA inhibited MMP-1 expression specifically, since it did not affect the expression of endogenous glyceraldehyde phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) nor other collagenases. Most importantly, the siRNA mediated reduction in MMP-1 expression correlated with a decreased ability of chondrosarcoma cells to invade a Type I collagen matrix. The reduction of invasive behavior demonstrated by human chondrosarcoma cells transfected with MMP-1 siRNA and the specificity of this inhibition supports the hypothesis that this metalloproteinase molecule is involved in initiation of chondrosarcoma metastasis.

Abstract
We previously reported that an elevated level of matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) gene expression in patients with chondrosarcoma has a strong statistical correlation with recurrence and in vitro invasion. In the present study, we used an antisense RNA strategy for MMP-1 inhibition to determine if this would affect the invasive characteristics of the cells. We transfected a human chondrosarcoma cell line with a retroviral plasmid expressing a 770 bp genomic fragment of the human MMP-1 gene in the sense or antisense orientation. The results show that cells transfected with the MMP-1 antisense fragment had a significant decrease in both MMP-1 protein and enzyme activity (p<0.05) as compared to cells transfected with an empty plasmid or the parental cells. Cells transfected with the MMP-1 antisense fragment demonstrated a significant decrease in their ability to invade the collagen I barrier (p<0.05). The gene expression for MMP-8 and MMP-13 were unaffected in cells transfected with the MMP-1 antisense fragment, MMP-1 sense fragment, or empty plasmid. These results support the hypothesis that MMP-1 facilitates tumor cell egress from chondrosarcoma tissue and demonstrate the potential of MMP-1 as a promising target for a novel biologic therapy in chondrosarcoma.

Abstract
Fetal development and tumor progression both require a complex system of extracellular matrix (ECM) synthesis and breakdown, which is mediated by, for instance, the matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). Human metalloelastase (MMP-12) is an MMP, the expression of which has so far been documented in macrophages associated with atherosclerosis, wound repair, and certain cancers. In this study we first examined the expression of MMP-12 during human fetal development. By in situ hybridization MMP-12 transcripts were detected in chondrocytes of hypertrophic cartilage in vertebrae of the spinal column, in ribs, and in extremities undergoing ossification, beginning at the gestational age of 8 weeks. Also, periosteal cells expressed MMP-12 at 11 weeks. No expression of MMP-12 mRNA could be noted in other fetal tissues, including the skin, lungs, intestine, kidney, and liver. Expression of MMP-12 mRNA could not be detected in adult normal cartilage or osteosarcomas, but in chondrosarcomas both macrophages (8 of 19 samples) (identified by CD68 immunostaining) and chondrosarcoma cells (8 of 19) were positive. MMP-12 was also demonstrated in the tumors by western blotting and it was expressed in the same regions as MMP-13 mRNA. By immunostaining, MMP-12 mRNA colocalized with the protein in both fetal and chondrosarcoma specimens. Unlike basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) and transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) induced MMP-12 mRNA production in chondrosarcoma-derived HTB-94 cells. Our results suggest that MMP-12 plays an important role in ECM remodeling during fetal bone development and is induced when chondrocytes undergo malignant transformation.
