The matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) family members play an important role in various<br />
physiological <strong>and</strong> pathological processes. The collagenase MMP-1 <strong>and</strong> the gelatinases MMP-<br />
2 <strong>and</strong> MMP-9 are involved in tumor invasiveness but the regulation of their expression is not<br />
fully elucidated <strong>and</strong> could implicate epigenetic mechanisms (DNA methylation <strong>and</strong>/or histone<br />
posttranslational modifications). The aim of this study was to analyze the effects of the<br />
histone deacetylase inhibitor trichostatine A (TSA) <strong>and</strong> the inhibitor of DNA methylation 5aza-2’-deoxycytidine<br />
(5-azadC) on the MMP-1,-2 <strong>and</strong> -9 expressions in human HT1080<br />
fibrosarcoma cell line. Real time RT-PCR revealed that 5-azadC or 5-azadC + TSA but not<br />
TSA alone (despite histone H4 hyperacetylation) increase mRNA levels. This transcription<br />
activation is correlated with chromatin decondensation observed by nuclear texture image<br />
analysis. Western blot <strong>and</strong> gelatin zymography analysis of cell culture media revealed<br />
significant secretion of proMMP-1 <strong>and</strong> high activity of MMP-2 <strong>and</strong> MMP-9, after 5-azadC or<br />
5-azadC + TSA treatment. These results suggest that epigenetic mechanism could be involved<br />
in MMP-1, MMP-2, MMP-9 gene <strong>and</strong> protein expression <strong>and</strong> could thereby modulate the<br />
invasive behavior of tumor cells.<br />
