Abstract:
Objective To investigate the invasion ability and collagenolytic activity of human glioma cells in vitro.Methods Boyden chamber invasion assay was employed to evaluate the cell migration ability of human malignant glioma cell line U87MG in vitro and the effect of conditioned medium of U87MG cells on matrix collagenolytic activity was tested by agar-gelatin gel.Results The number of U87MG glioma cells migrating through the Matrigel-coated membrane was more than that of addition of EDTA or anti-MMP-2 antibody in U87MG glioma cells(P0.05).EDTA or anti-MMP-2 antibody markedly inhibited the number of the migrated cells,the inhibitory rates were 79.2% and 77.1%,respectively. The conditioned medium collected from the U87MG cells showed an increase in the transparent ring area on agar-gelatin gel.Inhibition of MMP-2 enzymatic activity by EDTA or anti-MMP-2 antibody reduced the transparent ring area on agar-gelatin gel.Conclusion Both invasion ability and collagenolytic activity of U87MG cells are depended on MMP-2,suggesting that MMP-2 plays an important role in glioma invasiveness.
