Description : | MMP-14 is expressed in adult lung, placenta, kidney, ovaries, intestine, prostate and spleen. Increased amounts of the enzyme are found in tumor tissues as lung carcinoma, gastric caqrcinoma, colon, breast, head and neck carcinoma.MMP-14 is activated by removal of its prodomain. The reaction is catalyzed by furin, a subtilisin-type serine protease, which recognizes a motif of four basic amino acid residues located between prodomain and catalytic domain.MMP-14 activates pro-MMP-2 and pro-MMP-13 by proteolytic cleavage of their prodomains. The ability of MMP-14 to activate other MMPs provides potential for enhanced pericellular proteolysis in physiological and pathological processes. In particular, activation of pro-MMP-2 by MMP-14 is considered to contribute to local degradation of extracellular matrix during cell migration and proliferation. MMP-14 hydrolyzes also fibrillar collagens I, II and III into characteristic 3/4 and 1/4 fragments and it cleaves a number of other proteins of the extracellular matrix, among them fibronectin, vitronectin, laminin-1 and dermatan sulfate proteoglycan. The activity of MMP-14 is poorly inhibited by tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinases-1 (TIMP-1), but efficiently inhibited by TIMP-2 and TIMP-3. |

Q&As (7)
Ask a questionMMP14, also known as matrix metalloproteinase 14, is primarily expressed by cells of mesenchymal origin, such as fibroblasts and endothelial cells. Its expression is tightly regulated at multiple levels, including transcriptional, post-transcriptional, and post-translational mechanisms. Transcriptional regulation involves the binding of various transcription factors, such as AP-1 and SP-1, to the MMP14 promoter region. Additionally, microRNAs and RNA-binding proteins can modulate its mRNA stability and translation.
MMP14 plays a crucial role in cancer progression and metastasis. It facilitates tumor invasion by degrading components of the extracellular matrix, promoting cancer cell migration, and aiding in angiogenesis. MMP14 also influences tumor cell behavior by interacting with other proteins involved in cell signaling pathways and epithelial-mesenchymal transition. Its overexpression is associated with poor prognosis in various types of cancer.
Overexpression of MMP14 has been strongly associated with tumor progression and poor prognosis in various types of cancer. Increased levels of MMP14 lead to enhanced degradation of the ECM, promoting tumor cell invasion and metastasis. Additionally, MMP14 can activate other matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), further amplifying the proteolytic activity and facilitating tumor growth and angiogenesis. Moreover, MMP14 has been implicated in tumor-associated angiogenesis and immunosuppression, contributing to tumor progression and metastasis.
Targeting MMP14 holds potential for therapeutic interventions in cancer and other diseases. Strategies such as selective inhibition of MMP14 activity, antibody-based therapies, and gene silencing techniques are being explored. However, the development of MMP14-targeted therapies faces challenges, including the need for specificity, avoiding off-target effects, and optimizing delivery methods to reach the tumor microenvironment.
Yes, there are endogenous inhibitors of MMP14, known as tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs). TIMPs bind to the active site of MMP14 and prevent its activity. TIMP-2 is a specific inhibitor of MMP14 and forms a complex with MMP14, regulating its enzymatic activity. The balance between MMP14 and TIMPs is crucial for maintaining tissue homeostasis and preventing excessive extracellular matrix degradation. Dysregulation of this balance can contribute to pathological conditions, including cancer progression.
MMP14 plays a crucial role in tissue remodeling processes, such as embryogenesis, wound healing, and tissue repair. It is essential for the degradation and turnover of extracellular matrix components during tissue restructuring. MMP14 also influences cell behavior and migration during tissue development and regeneration. Additionally, it participates in the modulation of immune responses and angiogenesis, which are crucial for proper tissue remodeling.
MMP14 possesses a catalytic domain responsible for substrate cleavage. It predominantly cleaves components of the extracellular matrix, such as collagen type I and type II. The interaction between MMP14 and its substrates occurs through specific binding sites within the substrate proteins. This interaction is facilitated by the hemopexin-like domain of MMP14, which acts as a docking site for substrate recognition and binding.
