The influence of αVβ3 integrin on MT1-MMP functionality was studied in human breast cancer cells of differing β3 integrin status. Overexpression of β3 integrin caused increased cell surface expression of αV integrin and increased cellular adhesion to extracellular matrix (ECM) substrates in BT-549, MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7 cells. β3 integrin expression also enhanced the migration of breast cancer cells...
The respective requirements of collagen and MT1-MMP in the activation of MMP-2 by primary fibroblast cultures were explored further. Three-dimensional gels enriched in human collagen types I and III or composed of recombinant human type II or III collagen, caused increased MT1-MMP production (mRNA and protein) and induced MMP-2 activation. Only marginal induction was seen with dried monomeric collagen...
