Abstract

Using a collagen film assay utilizing 14C-labeled type I collagen, we demonstrated that cultured human keratinocytes produced a procollagenase after treatment with the tumor-promoting phorbol ester, 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA). Production of collagenase paralleled alterations in cellular morphology induced by TPA. When procollagenase was immunoprecipitated with antibody to human fibroblast collagenase and analyzed on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels, the zymogen was revealed as a 56- and 51-kDa doublet. The keratinocyte-derived collagenase was a neutral metalloprotease, required activation with trypsin for detection in the collagenase assay and produced the characteristic three-quarter and one-quarter length collagen cleavage products when incubated with type I collagen at 25 degrees C. The enzyme was inhibited by serum and cysteine and was largely unaffected by serine, thiol, and carboxyl protease inhibitors. Cycloheximide inhibited the TPA-induced production of collagenase, suggesting that the procollagenase was not stored preformed in the keratinocytes. Keratinocytes treated with a tumor-promoting analogue of TPA also produced collagenase, but cells treated with cytochalasin B, interleukin-1, or two non-tumor promoting phorbol esters did not. Keratinocyte-derived collagenase may play a role in wound healing and morphogenesis.
