- W2162000580 abstract "Matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9 from alveolar macrophages is a major source of elastolytic activity in the lung. It is increased in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid of patients with emphysema. Although the importance of macrophage-derived elastolytic activity in the pathogenesis of emphysema is well established, questions remain about MMP-9 regulation and activity. Because surfactant protein A (SP-A) is capable of modulating other functions of human monocytic cells, we hypothesized that SP-A may regulate MMP-9 expression. Vitamin D3-differentiated THP-1 cells and peripheral blood mononuclear cells were stimulated in vitro with several concentrations of SP-A for different incubation times. MMP-9 mRNA expression was measured by dot-blot analysis, gelatinolytic activity in the medium was determined by gel zymography, protein expression was determined by ELISA, and a specific MMP-9 activity assay was used to measure the state of activation of this enzyme in the cell supernatants. SP-A induced the expression of MMP-9 in both cell types, the effect was time and dose dependent, and MMP-9 was released in its zymogen form. On the basis of results of neutralizing antibody studies, we believe that SP-A action is mediated through Toll-like receptor-2. Even though the biological meaning of these findings remains to be elucidated, these observations suggest the presence of a novel, locally controlled mechanism by which MMP-9 levels may be regulated in alveolar macrophages. We speculate that SP-A may influence the protease/antiprotease balance in the lungs of patients with quantitative and/or qualitative changes in surfactant constituents favoring an abnormal breakdown of extracellular matrix components." @default.
