Membrane-bound macrophage colony-stimulating factor mediated auto-juxtacrine downregulates matrix metalloproteinase-9 release on J6-1 leukemic cell.
Earlier studies indicate that J6-1 human leukemic cells proliferate and propagate via the membrane-bound macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF)-mediated auto-juxtacrine mechanism. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) can modulate the activity of cell membrane molecules and influence many cellular behaviors. Therefore, we hypothesized that MMP may also be involved in the membrane-bound M-CSF-mediated juxtacrine mechanism. First, we investigated whether blocking of membrane-bound M-CSF by neutralizing antibody to M-CSF or M-CSF receptor and adding of exogenous M-CSF are able to influence MMP-9 release. Next, we determined whether MMP-9 participated in J6-1 cells proliferation and influence the shedding of membrane-bound M-CSF and its receptor. Current studies show that blockade of the interaction between membrane-bound M-CSF and M-CSF receptor by antibody to M-CSF or M-CSF receptor promotes MMP-9 release. Moreover, we demonstrated that because of M-CSF mediated juxtacrine, lack of MMP-9 promotes J6-1 cell proliferation, in which a decrease in the shedding of cell-surface M-CSFR is involved. Hence, we suggest that membrane-bound M-CSF inhibit MMP-9 release and down-regulated MMP-9 contribute to juxtacrine stimulating in leukemic cell growth.
