Early secretory antigenic target-6 drives matrix metalloproteinase-10 gene expression and secretion in tuberculosis
Tuberculosis (TB) causes disease worldwide, and multidrug resistance is an increasing problem. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), particularly the collagenase MMP-1, cause lung extracellular matrix destruction, which drives disease transmission and morbidity. The role in such tissue damage of the stromelysin MMP-10, a key activator of the collagenase MMP-1, was investigated in direct Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb)–infected macrophages and in conditioned medium from Mtb-infected monocyte–stimulated cells. Mtb infection increased MMP-10 secretion from primary human macrophages 29-fold, whereas Mtb-infected monocytes increased secretion by 4.5-fold from pulmonary epithelial cells and 10.5-fold from fibroblasts. Inhibition of MMP-10 activity decreased collagen breakdown. In two independent cohorts of patients with TB from different continents, MMP-10 was increased in both induced sputum and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid compared with control subjects and patients with other respiratory diseases (both P < 0.05). Mtb drove 3.5-fold greater MMP-10 secretion from human macrophages than the vaccine strain bacillus Calmette–Guerin (P < 0.001), whereas both mycobacteria up-regulated TNF-α secretion equally. Using overlapping, short, linear peptides covering the sequence of early secretory antigenic target-6, a virulence factor secreted by Mtb, but not bacillus Calmette–Guerin, we found that stimulation of human macrophages with a single specific 15–amino acid peptide sequence drove threefold greater MMP-10 secretion than any other peptide (P < 0.001). Mtb-driven MMP-10 secretion was inhibited in a dose-dependent manner by p38 and extracellular signal–related kinase mitogen-activated protein kinase blockade (P < 0.001 and P < 0.01 respectively), but it was not affected by inhibition of NF-κB. In summary, Mtb activates inflammatory and stromal cells to secrete MMP-10, and this is partly driven by the virulence factor early secretory antigenic target-6, implicating it in TB-associated tissue destruction.

Abstract

Tuberculosis (TB) causes disease worldwide, and multidrug resistance is an increasing problem. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), particularly the collagenase MMP-1, cause lung extracellular matrix destruction, which drives disease transmission and morbidity. The role in such tissue damage of the stromelysin MMP-10, a key activator of the collagenase MMP-1, was investigated in direct Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb)–infected macrophages and in conditioned medium from Mtb-infected monocyte–stimulated cells. Mtb infection increased MMP-10 secretion from primary human macrophages 29-fold, whereas Mtb-infected monocytes increased secretion by 4.5-fold from pulmonary epithelial cells and 10.5-fold from fibroblasts. Inhibition of MMP-10 activity decreased collagen breakdown. In two independent cohorts of patients with TB from different continents, MMP-10 was increased in both induced sputum and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid compared with control subjects and patients with other respiratory diseases (both P < 0.05). Mtb drove 3.5-fold greater MMP-10 secretion from human macrophages than the vaccine strain bacillus Calmette–Guerin (P < 0.001), whereas both mycobacteria up-regulated TNF-α secretion equally. Using overlapping, short, linear peptides covering the sequence of early secretory antigenic target-6, a virulence factor secreted by Mtb, but not bacillus Calmette–Guerin, we found that stimulation of human macrophages with a single specific 15–amino acid peptide sequence drove threefold greater MMP-10 secretion than any other peptide (P < 0.001). Mtb-driven MMP-10 secretion was inhibited in a dose-dependent manner by p38 and extracellular signal–related kinase mitogen-activated protein kinase blockade (P < 0.001 and P < 0.01 respectively), but it was not affected by inhibition of NF-κB. In summary, Mtb activates inflammatory and stromal cells to secrete MMP-10, and this is partly driven by the virulence factor early secretory antigenic target-6, implicating it in TB-associated tissue destruction.
