heal.abstractOur previous studies have shown that MMP-9 levels are significantly elevated during the progression of human gliomas. In the current study, we examined the role of JNK- and ERK-dependent signaling modules in the regulation of MMP-9 production and the invasive behavior of the human glioblastoma cell line SNB19, in which JNK/ERK1 is constitutively activated. SNB19 cells that were transfected with dominant-negative JNK, MEKK, and ERK1 expression vectors showed reduced MMP-9 promoter activity. In addition, conditioned medium collected from SNB19 cells transfected with these expression vectors showed diminished MMP-9 activity in the presence of phorbol myristate acetate, as determined by gelatin zymography. The cotransfection of SNB19 cells with kinase-deficient c-raf also diminished MMP-9 promoter activity. Further, in the presence of a specific inhibitor of MEKK (PD098059), the Matrigel invasion assay showed the invasiveness of dominant-negative SNB19 cells transfected with dominant-negative JNK1 or ERK1 to be remarkably reduced. In conclusion, our studies showed for the first time that MMP-9 production and the invasive behavior of SNB 19 cells are regulated by JNK- and ERK-dependent signaling modules and that interfering with either of the pathways reduces invasiveness.en
