Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) is a mitogen associated with tissue repair, a process involving collagen synthesis and remodelling by interstitial collagenase. This study examines and compares the regulation of interstitial collagenase and collagen gene expression by PDGF-AA and -BB in human fibroblasts. Time-course analysis showed that neither PDGF-AA or -BB had a consistent effect on the expression of pro-alpha 1(I) or pro-alpha 2(I) type-I collagen genes. In contrast, interstitial collagenase gene expression was found to be consistently up-regulated severalfold by PDGF-BB. Enhanced expression of the collagenase gene was not apparently due to up-regulation of its promoter activity in human dermal fibroblasts, as indicated by transient and stable transfection experiments. Unlike PDGF-BB, PDGF-AA did not alter collagenase mRNA levels under low-serum culture conditions. Thus, the biological activities of the PDGF homodimers are different, with PDGF-BB being clearly more potent than PDGF-AA in its regulation of collagenase gene expression.
