Matrix metalloproteinase (MMPs) enzymes are implicated in matrix remodelling during proliferative inflammatory processes including wound heating. We report here sgnergistic upregulation of MMP-9 protein and mRNA by platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) or basic fibroblast growth factor (bfGF) in combination with interleukin-1 alpha (IL-1 alpha) or tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) in primary rabbit and human dermal fibroblasts. The synergistic interaction between growth factors and cytokines implies that basement membrane remodelling ling is maximal physiologically when both are present together, The signalling pathways mediating this synergistic regulation are not understood, although analysis of the MMP-9 promoter has identified an essential proximal AP-1 element and an upstream nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-kappa B) site. Using electromobility shift assays, binding to the AP-1 site was only slightly increased by growth factors and cytokines, NF-kappa B binding was rapidly induced by IL-1 alpha or TNF-alpha but was neither induced nor potentiated by bFGF or PDGF. Neither AP-1 nor NF-kappa B was therefore sufficient on its own for synergistic regulation. Using a recently developed adenovirus that overexpresses the inhibitory subunit, I kappa B alpha, we demonstrated an absolute requirement for NF-kappa B in upregulation of MMP-9. Activation of NP-kappa B binding by inflammatory cytokines was therefore necessary but not sufficient for synergistic upregulation of MMP-9. (C) 1998 Federation of European Biochemical Societies.
