Abstract

Glucocorticoid induced tumor necrosis factor receptor (GITR), a new TNFR family, increased production of matrix matalloproteinase (MMP-9) in murine macrophages. Murine macrophages produced a band of gelatinolytic activity at 100 kDa when stimulated for 18 h with soluble GITR. MMP-9 was identified by gelatin zymography and Western blot. Previous results demonstrated that murine macrophages express GITR and GITR ligand constitutively. Induction of MMP-9 was synergistic with co-treatment of INF-gamma. MMPs could play a critical role in progression and promotion of tissue injury after inflammation stimulated by GITR/ligand system.
