Co-expression of membrane-type 1 matrix metalloproteinase (MT1-MMP) with kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1) in HEK293T cells resulted in cleavage and shedding of KIM-1 ectodomain. Analysis of cleavage products using KIM-1 mutants localized cleavage site at the juxtamembrane region. HT1080 cells were stably transfected with expression plasmid for KIM-1 or its mutant with deletion of the juxtamembrane region (Asp(261)-Gly(295)) to establish HT/KIM-1 or HT/Delta KIM-1 cells, respectively. KIM-1 protein appeared on cell surface at low level in HT/KIM-1 cells, and accumulated by the treatment with MMP inhibitor BB-94 or small interfering RNA (siRNA) to MT1-MMP, indicating that MT1-MMP is involved in cleavage and shedding of KIM-1. In contrast, HT/Delta KIM-1 cells expressed KIM-1 protein at high level regardless of BB-94 or siRNA treatment. Cells expressing high level KIM-1 protein exhibited phagocytosis of Escherichia coli and reduced cell adhesion and spreading on collagen-coated plate compared with KIM-1 negative cells. Control HT1080 and HT/KIM-1 cells showed significantly higher invasive growth in collagen gel, cell migration on collagen-coated plate and liver metastasis in chick embryo than HT/Delta KIM-1 cells. These results suggest that KIM-1 negatively regulates cellular function mediated through interaction with collagen, and MT1-MMP abrogates it through the cleavage and shedding of KIM-1.
