BackgroundThe dystroglycan complex consists of two subunits: extracellular α-dystroglycan and membrane-spanning β-dystroglycan, which provide a tight link between the extracellular matrix and the intracellular cytoskeleton. Previous studies showed that 43 kDa β-dystroglycan is proteolytically cleaved into the 30 kDa fragment by matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) in various non-muscle tissues, whereas it is protected from cleavage in muscles by the sarcoglycan complex which resides close to the dystroglycan complex. It is noteworthy that cleaved β-dystroglycan is detected in muscles from patients with sarcoglycanopathy, sarcoglycan-deficient muscular dystrophy.In vitroassays using protease inhibitors suggest that both MMP-2 and MMP-9 contribute to the cleavage of β-dystroglycan. However, this has remained uninvestigatedin vivo.MethodsWe generated triple-knockout (TKO) mice targeting MMP-2, MMP-9 and γ-sarcoglycan to examine the status of β-dystroglycan cleavage in the absence of the candidate matrix metalloproteinases in sarcoglycan-deficient muscles.ResultsUnexpectedly, β-dystroglycan was cleaved in muscles from TKO mice. Muscle pathology was not ameliorated but worsened in TKO mice compared with γ-sarcoglycan single-knockout mice. The gene expression of MMP-14 was up-regulated in TKO mice as well as in γ-sarcoglycan knockout mice.In vitroassay showed MMP-14 is capable to cleave β-dystroglycan.ConclusionsDouble-targeting of MMP-2 and MMP-9 cannot prevent cleavage of β-dystroglycan in sarcoglycanopathy. Thus, matrix metalloproteinases contributing to β-dystroglycan cleavage are redundant, and MMP-14 could participate in the pathogenesis of sarcoglycanopathy.
