Modulation of Adipose Tissue Expression of Murine Matrix Metalloproteinases and Their Tissue Inhibitors With Obesity

Abstract: The potential role of the matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) system in the pathophysiology of the adipose tissue was investigated in a mouse model of nutritionally induced obesity. mRNA levels of 16 MMPs and 4 tissue inhibitors of MMPs (TIMPs) were measured by semiquantitative RT-PCR in adipose tissue isolated from mice maintained for 15 weeks on a standard or high-fat diet. In mice on standard diet, with the exception of MMP-8, all MMP and TIMP transcripts were detected in both gonadal and subcutaneous depots. In… Show more

“…These contradictory findings indicate that distinct pathways of matrix decomposition may be activated in different diseases. In agreement with our results, an interesting study performed on the adipose tissue of mice reported the presence of several members of MMPs and TIMPs, except MMP-8 [26]. A microarray study showed that while various MMP family members were strongly upregulated in adipocytes in a culture-conditioned medium, MMP-8 upregulation was not observed [27].…”

“…In parallel, specific tissue inhibitors of MMPs (TIMPs) can also be dysregulated. More specifically, TIMP1 is upregulated with obesity, and conversely, TIMP4 is downregulated in states of obesity (106). Such striking regulatory patterns of MMPs and their corresponding inhibitors suggest important roles of these factors in the pathophysiology of AT.…”

“…The function of several other MMPs highly expressed in AT remains to be further identified. Maquoi and colleagues further demonstrated that in DIO mice, expression levels of MMP3, -11, -12, -13, and -14 are all upregulated, whereas levels of MMP7, -9, -16, and -24 are downregulated (106). In parallel, specific tissue inhibitors of MMPs (TIMPs) can also be dysregulated.…”

“…The modulation of extracellular matrix components via the production of metalloproteinases is an important regulator of fat tissue remodeling. The metalloproteinase 9 (Mmp-9) gene, known to be expressed at higher levels in preadipocytes than in adipocytes, decreased over generations in accordance with its downregulation in nutritionally induced obesity of C57BL/6J mice ( 36 ).…”
