Urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) degrades the extracellular matrix and plays critical roles in tumor invasion and metastasis. Matriptase, a membrane-bound serine protease, was shown to activate uPA in a uPA receptor-free, solution-based study. We now investigate whether matriptase affects activation of receptor-bound uPA and contributes to the invasiveness of HRA human ovarian cancer cells in vitro and tumor behavior in nude mice. Here we show the following. 1) uPA expression was effectively stimulated by TGF-beta1 in HRA cells. 2) Antisense (AS)-matriptase transfection achieved a marked inhibition of receptor-bound pro-uPA activation without altering expression of uPA and uPA receptor mRNA and proteins, irrespective of whether cells were stimulated with TGF-beta1. 3) Tumor cell receptor-bound pro-uPA could be efficiently cleaved by matriptase to generate enzymatically active two-chain uPA. Thus, matriptase can substitute for plasmin in the proteolytic activation of pro-uPA to enzymatically active uPA. 4) The AS-matriptase-treated cells had a decreased ability to invade an extracellular matrix layer, as compared with control cells. 5) When the AS-matriptase-treated cells were injected intraperitoneally into nude mice, the mice developed smaller tumors. Our data identify a novel role for matriptase for activation of receptor-bound uPA.
