Abstract

We investigated the role of growth factors and fibronectin on matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) expression and on migration and invasion of mouse skeletal myoblasts in vitro. None of the growth factors tested significantly affected MMP-1 or MMP-2 activity as revealed by gelatin zymography, but both basic FGF (bFGF) and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α significantly increased MMP-9 activity (10- and 30-fold, respectively). The increase in secreted MMP-9 activity with TNF-α stimulation was due at least in part to an increase in MMP-9 gene transcription, because an MMP-9 promoter construct was approximately fivefold more active in TNF-α-treated myoblasts than in control myoblasts, as well as an increase in MMP-9 proteolytic activation. However, whereas fibronectin, bFGF, hepatocyte growth factor, and TGF-β1 significantly augmented migration of mouse myoblasts, TNF-α did not, nor did PDGF-BB or IGF-I. Fibronectin and bFGF also significantly augmented invasion of myoblasts across a Matrigel barrier, and plasmin cotreatment potentiated whereas N-acetyl cysteine suppressed the effects of bFGF and fibronectin on myoblast migration and invasion. Finally, transient transfection with an MMP-9 overexpression construct had only minimal effects on myoblast migration/invasion, whereas overexpression of either MMP-2 or MMP-1 significantly augmented myoblast migration and invasion. These observations support the hypothesis that MMP activity is a necessary component of growth factor-mediated myoblast migration but suggest that other consequences of growth factor signaling are also necessary for migration to occur.
