Matrix Metalloproteinase-8 Plays a Pivotal Role in Neuroinflammation by Modulating TNF-α Activation

Abstract: Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) play important roles in normal brain development and synaptic plasticity, although aberrant expression of MMPs leads to brain damage, including blood–brain barrier disruption, inflammation, demyelination, and neuronal cell death. In this article, we report that MMP-8 is upregulated in LPS-stimulated BV2 microglial cells and primary cultured microglia, and treatment of MMP-8 inhibitor (M8I) or MMP-8 short hairpin RNA suppresses proinflammatory molecules, particularly TNF-α secre… Show more

“…IL-8 is a macrophage-generated and secreted inflammatory chemokine that binds Toll-like receptors and plays a role in innate immune system responses [37, 38]. The matrix metalloproteinase MMP-8, when aberrantly produced by microglial cells, facilitates neuroinflammatory responses through its effects on TNFα [39]. Demonstrating effects on the expression of these genes could prove relevant to AD, a disorder that features neuroinflammation, elevated TNFα levels, reduced TREM2 levels [36, 40], and an increased risk for individuals that carry loss-of-function TREM2 sequence variants [2].…”

“…MMP8 was also characterized as a protease responsible for SIRP␣ proteolysis in primary neutrophils (13). However, this may not be the case because the inhibitor used in those experiments was shown to be promiscuous, inhibiting many MMPs and ADAM proteases (12,31). Using specific inhibitors and RNAi, we determined that ADAM10 was involved in SIRP␣ proteolysis in epithelial and monocytic cells.…”

“…Recent studies seem to provide some possible clues for ADAM17 regulation in microglia. Microglial reaction and TNFa expression can be attenuated by ADAM17 inhibitor through p38-MAPK/ ERK and NFjB signaling (Lee et al 2014). Besides, a serine proteinase, inactive Rhomboid 2 (iRhom2), emerged as a molecule that controls the maturation and function of ADAM17 and TNFa secretion, especially in microglia (Li et al 2015).…”
