The aim of this study was to evaluate the differential expression and the function in cell movement and proliferation of the urokinase plasminogen activator (u-PA) system in muscle satellite cells (MSC) of normal individuals and patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). By immunoenzymatic, zymographic, and radioligand binding methods and by quantitative polymerase chain reaction of the specific mRNA we have shown that both normal and DMD MSC produce u-PA and the plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 and express u-PA receptors (u-PAR). During the proliferation phase of their growth-differentiation program, MSC from DMD patients show more u-PAR than their normal counterpart, produce more plasminogen activator inhibitor-1, and release low amounts of u-PA into the culture medium. By Boyden chamber Matrigel invasion assays we have shown that normal MSC are more prone than DMD cells to spontaneous invasion but, when subjected to a chemotactic gradient of u-PA, DMD MSC sense the ligand much better and to a greater extent than normal MSC. u-PA also stimulates proliferation of MSC, but no difference is observable between normal and DMD patients. Antagonization of u-PA/u-PAR interaction with specific anti-u-PA and anti-u-PAR monoclonal antibodies and with antisense oligonucleotides inhibiting u-PAR expression indicates that u-PA/u-PAR interaction is required in spontaneous and u-PA-induced invasion, as well as in u-PA-induced proliferation.
