Part of the neurodegenerative cascade in AIDS dementia may involve overexpression of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). Here, we examined the possible effect of HIV-1 gp41, which has been shown as a key determinant associated with pathogenesis of AIDS dementia, on the activity of MMPs using human neuronal and glial cell lines. Zymographic analysis revealed that treatment with the gp41 peptide (aa 583-599) for 24 h markedly elevated the activity of MMP with Mr 66 kDa in the cultured media of glioblastoma cell line T98G in a concentration-dependent manner as well as of neuroblastoma cell line SK-N-SH despite of lower magnitude of the activity. In contrast, the immediately adjacent gp41 peptide (aa 598-613) as well as the reverse peptide (aa 598-583) had a little effect. Recombinant gp41 protein containing extracellular domain also elicited a similar effect, although with a lesser extent. This 66 kDa MMP was confirmed as gelatinase A (MMP-2) based on the results of its activity dependent on Ca2+ and inhibited in the presence of 1,10-phenanthroline or EDTA, as well as its specific immunoreactivity on the Western blot. N-acetyl cysteine (NAC) downregulated this gp41 peptide-induced MMP-2 activity in T98G. The soluble form of amyloid precursor protein (sAPP), which is synthesized in the Escherichia coli system, also inhibited the MMP-2 activity in vitro. Taken together, these results implicate that high production of HIV-1 gp41 or its metabolites containing aa 583-599 within central nervous system (CNS) could result in the increased activity of MMP-2 and that the extracellular deficiency of reducing agent or decreased level of sAPP within CNS could exacerbate this gp41-induced MMP-2 activity.
