STAT3, p38 MAPK, and NF-κB Drive Unopposed Monocyte-Dependent Fibroblast MMP-1 Secretion in Tuberculosis

Abstract: Tissue destruction characterizes infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). Type I collagen provides the lung's tensile strength, is extremely resistant to degradation, but is cleaved by matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-1. Fibroblasts potentially secrete quantitatively more MMP-1 than other lung cells. We investigated mechanisms regulating Mtb-induced collagenolytic activity in fibroblasts in vitro and in patients. Lung fibroblasts were stimulated with conditioned media from Mtb-infected monocytes (CoMTb).… Show more

“…Despite a positive correlation between MAPK/p38 activation and REGg overexpression, JNK activation is not observed following TPA stimulation in our study, indicating some specificity in the transduction of TPA-induced carcinogenic signals 26 . A similar phenomenon has been reported; MMP-1 upregulation and TIMP-1 downregulation are p38 (but not ERK or JNK) MAPK-dependent 27 . This is the first study demonstrating that the MAPK/p38 signalling pathway is involved in the regulation of REGg expression.…”

“…Since stromal cells are more numerous in the lung and may express relatively greater levels of MMPs than monocytic cells [61], they represent a potentially important source of MMPs in TB. Monocyteepithelilal cell networks upregulate MMP-1 and -9 [35,36], while monocyte-fibroblast networks upregulate MMP-1 and -3 [62,63]. In our cellular model of TB meningitis, monocyteastrocyte networks were found to upregulate MMP-1, -2, -3, -7 and -9 gene expression [41].…”

“…Both the p38 and extracellular signal-related kinase/mitogenactivated protein kinase (MAPK) pathways are critical in regulating MMP secretion in multiple cell types, both as a result of direct infection and intercellular networks [35,36,63,66,67]. Although p38 MAPK pathway activation has multiple effects, including mRNA stabilisation, in primary human macrophages one critical downstream effector is the cyclooxygenase (COX) pathway.…”

“…No significant cell death was observed with the concentrations of inhibitors used. NF-kB regulates gene expression of diverse MMPs, including collagenases in TB (34,35). MMP-10 does not have a consensus NF-kB binding site in its promoter, although NF-kB noncanonical promoter binding was shown to occur in the promoter of the related stromelysin MMP-3 (36).…”
