Collagenase-3 (MMP-13) is a matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) originally identified in breast carcinomas which is also produced at significant levels during fetal ossification and in arthritic processes. In this work, we have found that transforming growth factor beta1 (TGF-beta1), a growth factor widely assumed to be inhibitory for MMPs, strongly induces collagenase-3 expression in human KMST fibroblasts. In contrast, this growth factor down-regulated the expression in these cells of collagenase-1 (MMP-1), an enzyme highly related to collagenase-3 in terms of structure and enzymatic properties. The positive effect of TGF-beta1 on collagenase-3 expression was dose- and time-dependent, but independent of the effects of this growth factor on cell proliferation rate. Analysis of the signal transduction mechanisms underlying the up-regulating effect of TGF-beta1 on collagenase-3 expression demonstrated that this growth factor acts through a signaling pathway involving protein kinase C and tyrosine kinase activities. Functional analysis of the collagenase-3 gene promoter region revealed that the inductive effect of TGF-beta1 is partially mediated by an AP-1 site. Comparative analysis with the promoter region of the collagenase-1 gene which contains an AP-1 site at equivalent position, confirmed that TGF-beta1 did not have any effect on CAT activity levels of this promoter. Finally, by using electrophoretic mobility shift assays and antibody supershift analysis, we propose that c-Fos, c-Jun, and JunD may play major roles in the collagenase-3 activation by TGF-beta1 in human fibroblasts.
