Bone marrow-derived stromal cells (BMSC) are avidly recruited by experimental vascularizing tumors, which implies that they must respond to tumor-derived growth factor cues. In fact, BMSC chemotaxis and cell survival are regulated, in part, by the membrane type-1 matrix metalloproteinase (MT1-MMP), an MMP also involved in pro-MMP-2 activation and in degradation of the extracellular matrix (ECM). Given that impaired chemotaxis was recently observed in bone marrow cells isolated from a glucose 6-phosphate transporter-deficient (G6PT-/-) mouse model, we sought to investigate the potential MT1-MMP/G6PT signaling axis in BMSC. We show that MT1-MMP-mediated activation of pro-MMP-2 by concanavalin A (ConA) correlated with an increase in the sub-G1 cell cycle phase as well as with cell necrosis, indicative of a decrease in BMSC survival. BMSC isolated from Egr-1-/- mouse or MT1-MMP gene silencing in BMSC with small interfering RNA (siMT1-MMP) antagonized both the ConA-mediated activation of pro-MMP-2 and the induction of cell necrosis. Overexpression of recombinant full-length MT1-MMP triggered necrosis and this was signaled through the cytoplasmic domain of MT1-MMP. ConA inhibited both the gene and protein expression of G6PT, while overexpression of recombinant G6PT inhibited MT1-MMP-mediated pro-MMP-2 activation but could not rescue BMSC from ConA-induced cell necrosis. Cell chemotaxis in response to the tumorigenic growth factor sphingosine 1-phosphate was significantly abrogated in siMT1-MMP BMSC and in chlorogenic acid-treated BMSC. Altogether, we provide evidence for an MT1-MMP/G6PT signaling axis that regulates BMSC survival, ECM degradation, and mobilization. This may lead to optimized clinical applications that use BMSC as a platform for the systemic delivery of therapeutic or anti-cancer recombinant proteins in vivo.
