Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) play an important role in the normal morphogenesis, maintenance, and repair of matrix and also have important functions in pathologic conditions characterized by excessive degradation of extracellular matrix, such as rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, periodontitis and in tumor invasion and metastasis. In this study, expression of MMP-1 and -2 mRNA in retrodiscal tissue of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) was examined and compared with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and surgical findings. MMP mRNAs in the retrodiscal tissue samples were detected by reverse transcription - polymerase chain reaction. TMJ internal derangement (ID) was categorized as normal disc position, disc displacement with reduction, early stage of disc displacement without reduction (DDsR) and late stage of DDsR. TMJ osteoarthrosis (OA) was classified with normal, mild and advanced OA. The amount of synovial fluid collection was divided into not detected, small, large and extremely large amount on MR T2-weighted imaging. Perforation and adhesion were examined during open surgery of the TMJ. Six out of 37 samples were excluded because of little amount of extracted total mRNA. MMP-2 mRNA was detected whole joints, and so the MMP-2 mRNA seems to be expressed normally in retrodiscal tissue. However, MMP-1 mRNA was expressed in 8 of 31 joints. Frequencies of MMP-1 mRNA expression according to the TMJ IDs, amount of synovial fluid and surgical findings made no significant difference. MMP-1 mRNA was detected more frequently in OA groups (7/16 joints, 43.8%) than in normal bony structure group (1/15 joints, 6.7%). Expression of MMP-1 mRNA in retrodiscal tissue might be related with OA of the TMJ.

Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs)는 치주조직내에 존재하는 세포외기질의 유지와 분해에 중요한 역할을 담당하고 있으며 이중 MMP-13은 치주질환의 진행과 깊은 관계가 있다고 알려져 있다. 이번 연구는 치주질환의 진행에 있어서 MMP-13의 활성에 대한 mitogen activated protein(MAP) Kinase의 역할을 구명하기 위해 시행되었다. 백서 치주인대세포에서의 MMP-13 mRNA의 발현은 RT-PCR에 의하여, 그리고 MAP Kinase의 발현은 Western blot에 의하여 측정하였다. $Interleukin-1{\beta}$(IL $-1{\beta}$), Tumor necrosis $factora(TNF-{\alpha})$와 parathyroid hormon(PTH)는 MMP- 13 mRNA 발현을 각각 320%, 180%, 380% 증가시켰으나 bone morphogenetic protein-7(BMP-7)은 MMP-13 mRNA의 발현을 증가시키지 않았다. p38 MAP Kinase 억제제인 SB203580은 IL $-1{\beta}$ 유도 MMP-13의 발현을 약 40% 정도 억제시켰으나, PTH-유도 MMP-13 mRNA의 발현은 억제하지 못했다. IL $-1{\beta}$는 MMP- 13 mRNA의 반감기를 약 2시간 정도로 증가시켰으나, p38 MAP Kinase 억제제로 전처치한 경우에는 반감기가 60분으로 줄어들었다. $IL-1{\beta}$는 p38 MAP kinase와 JNK의 인산화 활성을 증가시켰으나 PTH, $TNF-{\alpha}$와 BMP-7은 p38, JNK, ERK의 활성을 증가시키지 못했다. 이상의 연구결과는 p38 MAP Kinase가 백서 치주인대세포에서의 MMP-13 mRNA 발현을 조절하는데 중요한 역할을 담당함을 시사하였다.

It has been focused on the importance of the host inflammatory response in periodontal pathogenesis and progression, treatment has been introduced to control the host response and the method, which diminishes production and activity of MMP by doxycycline, has been used in periodontal field. MMP is a proteolytic enzyme which plays a major role in tissue destruction and MMP-1 is secreted in the periodontally healthy tissue, while MMP-8, 9, 13, etc in the inflammatory state. Among these, MMP-13 has been discovered lately and reported to degrade primarily type II collagen. Periodontal ligament (PDL) cell plays a role in destruction of periodontal tissue. This study was to evaluate the effect of doxycycline and mefenamic acid, non-steroidal antiinflammatory drug on MMP-13 mRNA expression in the rat PDL cell. Doxycycline concentration of $1{\sim}100\;{\mu}g/ml$ was added rat PDL cell and cell activity was measured by MIT assay at day 1 and 3. MMP-13 gene expression was evaluated by RT-PCR after PDL cells were pre-treated for 1hour with doxycycline (50 ${\mu}g/ml$) alone or with mefenamic acid ($10^{-6}M$), then added $IL-1{\beta}$(1.0 ng/ml) and incubated for 16-18 hours. The results are as follows: 1. Cell activity decreased Significantly at 24 and 72 hours in 100 ${\mu}g/ml$ (p<0.05). 2. Level of MMP-13 mRNA was in 20.2% increase by $IL-1{\beta}$ and in pre-treating doxycycline group, expression of $IL-1{\beta}$ induced MMP-13 mRNA was inhibited by 31% than $IL-1{\beta}$ treated only. 3. Mefenamic acid did not inhibit on the expression of $IL-1{\beta}$ induced MMP-13 mRNA, while mefenamic acid in combination with doxycycline inhibited the expression by 41% compared to only $IL-1{\beta}$ stimulation. These results suggest that doxycycline synergistically inhibit the expression of $IL-1{\beta}$ induced MMP-13 mRNA in combination with mefenamic acid.

There is a potential role of collagenase-3 in alveolar bone loss and periodontal disease progression, we need to develope or find chemotherapeutic drugs or herbal agents which may regulate the expression of MMP-13. Ginseng saponin, one of the major components of Korea ginseng(panax ginseng) root, has many various biologic effects, such as cytotoxic effect, tumoricidal effects, cytokine regulations, and protein biosynthesis effect. The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of Korea red ginseng saponin on MMP-13 gene expression in osteoblasts. The experimental groups were cultured with ginseng saponin in concentration of 1.0, 10, 25, 50, 100, 250 and $500{\mu}g/ml$ for MTT assay. Primary rat calvarial cells were pre-treated for 1 hour with ginseng saponin(100 ${\mu}g/ml$) and then stimulated with $IL-1{\beta}(1.0ng/ml)$ and PTH(10 nM). MMP-13 gene expression was evaluated by RT-PCR. The results were as follows: Ginseng saponin was cytotoxic to osteoblast at concentration exceeding $250{\mu}g/ml$ for longer than 24 hours in tissue culture(p<0.01). In RT-PCR analysis, steady state MMP-13 mRNA levels were increased approximately 350% by $IL-1{\beta}$, and 400% by PTH when normalized to untreated control. $IL-1{\beta}-indued$ MMP-13 mRNA expression was reduced 50% by pretreatment with ginseng saponin. But ginseng saponin didn't inhibit MMP-13 expression from PTH stimulated cells. This results suggest that ginseng saponin Inhibit $IL-1{\beta}-indued$ MMP-13 mRNA expression.

Matrix metalloproteinases have long been viewed as ideal candidates for proteinases that enables tumor cells to permeated basement membrane defenses and invade surrounding tissue. There is growing evidence that the MMPs have an expanded role, as they are important for the creation and maintenance of a microenvironment that facilitates growth and angiogenesis of tumors at primary and metastatic sites. MT-MMPs are not secreted but instead remaining attached to cell surfaces. Although not all of the MT-MMPs are fully characterized, MT-MMPs have important role in localizing and activating secreted MMPs. The MMP genes are transcriptionally responsive to a wide variety of oncogene, growth factors, cytokine, and hormones. Currently, a number of MMP inhibitors are being developed and some have reached clinical trials as anti-metastatic or anti-cancer therapies. MT1-MMP is involved in the activation of proMMP-2. MT1-MMP is significant not only as a tumor marker but as a new target for chemotherapy against cancer. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of protein kinase C inhibitor(genistein) on the proliferation of HT1080 and expression of MT1-MMP mRNA. Human fibrosarcoma cell line HT1080 was cultured and divided 2 groups. The experimental group was treated with $100{\mu}M$ genistein and incubated 12h, 24h for $[3^H]-thymidine$ uptake assay and northern hybridization individually. And the control group was treated with same amount of PBS for the above procedures. $[3^H]-thymidine$ incorporation was measured with ${\beta}$ ray detector. And RT-PCR and northern blotting for MT1-MMP mRNA was performed. The results were as follows 1. $[3^H]-thymidine$ uptake was reduced in experimental group with statistical significance. 2. MT1-MMP mRNA expression was significantly reduced in experimental group. These results showed that protein kinase C inhibitor (genistein) inhibited proliferation of HT1080 and almost completely blocked transcription of MT1-MMP mRNA. So, it is possible to use the protein kinase inhibitor (genistein) as anti-metastatic and anti-proliferative agent.

노화와 연관하여 설련의 항산화 효과, in vitro MMP 활성 저해능, 자외선 조사에 의해 유도된 MMP-1 발현에 대한 영향을 사람섬유아세포를 이용하여 확인하였다. 설련의 항산화 효과를 알아보기 위하여 DPPH radical과 superoxide anion radical 소거효과를 측정하였다. 그 결과 DPPH radical 소거능의 $IC_{50}$ 값은 $3.89{\mu}g/mL$이고, xanthine/xanthine oxidase에 의한 superoxide anion radical 제거능의 $IC_{50}$ 값은 $67.29{\mu}g/mL$이었다. 설련 $1000{\mu}g/mL$에서 93.27%의 지질과산화 저해효과를 나타내었다. MMP-1의 효소활성 저해 효과는 농도 의존적으로 활성을 억제하였으며, $IC_{50}$ 값은 $97.18{\mu}g/mL$이다. 또한 자외선 조사에 의해 사람 섬유아세포에서 발현되는 MMP-1에 대해 단백질의 양적인 변화는 42.86% 감소되었으며, 설련에 의해 농도 의존적으로 MMP-1 mRNA의 발현량도 감소되었다. 이러한 실험결과를 통하여 설련은 항산화 효과뿐만 아니라 자외선 조사에 의해 유도되는 MMP-1 단백질 발현과 mRNA 유전자 수준에서의 조절이 가능함을 확인하였다. 결론적으로 설련은 항산화와 자외선으로부터 생성되는 MMP-1의 발현을 저해함으로써 노화와 따른 피부를 보호하는 항노화 소재로서의 응용가능성을 확인하였다.

본 연구는 항주름 소재를 개발하기 위해서 목단피로부터 gallic acid (GA)를 분리하여 항산화능을 측정하였고, HaCaT 세포에서 세포독성을 측정하였다. 또한 HaCaT 세포에서 tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-${\alpha}$)에 의해 유도되는 matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) mRNA 발현, protein 발현, 분비에 대한 GA의 영향을 관찰하였다. 결과로써 GA는 30 ${\mu}g/mL$의 $IC_{50}$과 함께 항산화능을 나타내었고, 그것의 항산화능은 합성항산화제인 butylated hydroxyanisol (BHA)보다 높았다. GA는 HaCaT 세포에서 고농도인 200 ${\mu}g/mL$ 처리시 약한 세포독성을 나타내었다. 또한 HaCaT세포에서 TNF-${\alpha}$ (10 ng/mL)의 처리에 의해 증가된 MMP-1의 mRNA 발현, protein 발현, 분비는 GA의 처리에 의해 농도 의존적으로 유의적인 감소를 나타내었다(p<0.05). 그러므로 GA는 항산화 효과와 TNF-${\alpha}$로부터 유도되는 MMP-1의 발현을 저해함으로써 피부 주름을 개선할 수 있는 주름개선제로서의 활용가능성을 확인하였다.

Background: Matrix metalloproteinase -2 (gelatinase-A, Mr 72,000 type IV collagenase, MMP-2) and -9 (gelatinase-B, Mr 92,000 type IV collagenase, MMP-9) are key molecules that play roles in tumor growth, invasion, tissue remodeling, metastasis and stem-cell regulation by digesting extracellular matrix barriers. MMP-2 and -9 are well known to impact on solid cancer susceptibility, whereas, in hematological malignancies, a paucity of data is available to resolve the function of these regulatory molecules in bone marrow mononuclear cells (BM-MNCs) and stromal cells of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Objectives: The present study aimed to investigate mRNA expression and gelatinase A and B secretion from BM-MNCs in vitro and genotypic associations of MMP-2 (-1306 C/T; rs243865), MMP-9 (-1562 C/T; rs3918242), tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase -1 (TIMP-1) (372T/C; rs4898, Exon 5) and TIMP-2 (-418G/C; rs8179090) in MDS and AML. Results: The study covered cases of confirmed MDS (n=50), AML (n=32) and healthy controls (n=110). MMP-9 mRNA expression revealed 2 fold increased expression in MDS-RAEB II and 2.5 fold in AML M-4 (60-70% blasts). Secretion of gelatinase-B also revealed the MMP-9 mRNA expression and ELISA data also supported these data. We noted that those patients having more blast crises presented with more secretion of MMP-9 and its mRNA expression. In contrast MMP-9 (-1562 C/T) showed significant polymorphic associations in MDS (p<0.02) and AML (p<0.02). MMP-9 mRNA expression of C/T and T/T genotypes were 1.5 and 2.5 fold increased in MDS and AML respectively. In AML, MMP-2 C/T and T/T genotypes showed 2.0 fold mRNA expression. Only MMP-9 (-1306 C/T) showed significant 4 fold (p<0.001) increased risk with chemical and x-ray exposed MDS, while tobacco and cigarette smokers have 3 fold (p<0.04) risk in AML. Conclusions: In view of our results, MMP-9 revealed synergistic secretion and expression in blast crises of MDS and AML with 'gene' polymorphic effects and is significantly associated with increased risk with tobacco, cigarette and environmental exposure. Release and secretion of these enzymes may influence hematopoietic cell behavior and may be important in the clinical point of view. It may offer valuable tools for diagnosis and prognosis, as well as possible targets for the treatments.

Membrane-type matrix metalloproteinase(MT-MMP)는 세포막에 부착된 채로 작용하는 단백질 가수분해효소로서 최근들어 정상 및 암세포 등 각종 조직세포의 재구성에 중요한 역할을 하는 것으로 알려지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 RT-PCR 방법을 사용하여 생쥐 난자와 초기배아에서의 MT1-MMP와 MT2-MMP 유전자 발현 양상을 조사하였다. 생후 3주 및 8주된 생쥐의 난소로부터 얻은 미성숙난자와 체외 및 체내에서 성숙시킨 난자에서의 MTl-MMP와 MT2-MMP mRMA의 발현을 조사하였다. 그 결과 미성숙난자와 체외 및 체내에서 성숙시킨 난자 모두에서 MT1-MMP 및 MT2-MMP의 mRNA가 발현되었으나 미성숙난자에서는 매우 약하게 발현되는 것이 관찰되었다. 2세포기 배아, 4세포기 배아, 상실배, 포배 및 탈각한 포배를 대상으로 MT2-MMP mRNA의 발현양상을 조사한 결과 2세포기에서는 발현이 일어나지 않았고 4세포기에 이르러서야 뚜렷한 발현이 관찰되었다. 상실배와 포배에서는 현저히 강한 발현이 관찰되었다. 생쥐의 난소조직에서도 MT1-과 MT2-MMP모두 발현되는 것이 관찰되었는데 각각은 배란을 전후로 한 시기에 상관없이 항상 같은 정도의 mRNA발현을 나타내었다. 생쥐의 수란관조직도 난소조직과 유사하게 배란시기에 상관없이 같은 수준의 MT1-과 MT2-MMP mRNA 발현양상을 보여주었다. 이러한 결과들로 미루어 생쥐 배아에서 발현되는 MT2-MMP는 초기배아의 분화과정에서 중요한 역할을 할 것으로 사료된다. 난소와 수란관의 조직재구성과 관련한 MT1-과 MT2-MMP의 역할은 앞으로 더 연구되어야 할 것이다.
