Matrix metalloproteinase inhibitor RECK expression in canine tumors.
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) selectively degrade the extracellular matrix, and they have been reported to play an important role in tumor invasion, metastasis and angiogenesis. These enzymes are closely related to tumor malignancy and patient survival time. Recently, reversion-inducing cysteine-rich protein with Kazal motifs (RECK) gene was identified as an endogenous membrane-anchored MMP ...
متن کاملThe Membrane-Anchored MMP Inhibitor RECK Is a Key Regulator of Extracellular Matrix Integrity and Angiogenesis
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are essential for proper extracellular matrix remodeling. We previously found that a membrane-anchored glycoprotein, RECK, negatively regulates MMP-9 and inhibits tumor invasion and metastasis. Here we show that RECK regulates two other MMPs, MMP-2 and MT1-MMP, known to be involved in cancer progression, that mice lacking a functional RECK gene die around E10.5 ...
متن کاملRECK negatively regulates matrix metalloproteinase-9 transcription.
RECK, a glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored glycoprotein, inhibits the enzymatic activities of some matrix metalloproteinases (MMP), thereby suppressing tumor cell metastasis; however, the detailed mechanism is still obscure. In this study, we compared the gene expression profiles between mock- and RECK-transfected HT1080 cells and showed that RECK decreases MMP-9 mRNA levels but not other MM...
متن کاملMolecular cloning of a novel membrane-type matrix metalloproteinase from a human breast carcinoma.
A new member of the matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) family of enzymes has been cloned from a human breast carcinoma cDNA library. The isolated cDNA contains an open reading frame 1554 bp long, encoding a polypeptide of 518 amino acids. The predicted amino acid sequence displays a similar domain organization as the remaining MMPs, including a prodomain with the activation locus, the zinc-binding ...
متن کاملThe metalloproteinase inhibitor Reck is essential for zebrafish DRG development.
The neural crest is a migratory, multipotent cell lineage that contributes to myriad tissues, including sensory neurons and glia of the dorsal root ganglia (DRG). To identify genes affecting cell fate specification in neural crest, we performed a forward genetic screen for mutations causing DRG deficiencies in zebrafish. This screen yielded a mutant lacking all DRG, which we named sensory depri...
