Human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have the unique ability to home toward injuries or tumor sites. We have previously shown that the tumor-tropic property is dependent on the intrinsic expression and activity of the matrix remodeling gene, matrix metalloproteinase 1 (MMP-1). Herein, crosstalk between MMP-1/protease activated receptor 1 (PAR-1) and the G-protein coupled receptor stromal-derived growth factor 1 (SDF-1)/C-X-C chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR-4) in facilitating cell migration was investigated. Gain-of-function and RNA interference (RNAi) technology were used to evaluate the interplay between the key players. The downstream effect on the tumor-tropic migration of MSCs was investigated using modified Boyden chamber assay. Neutralizing PAR-1 activation using monoclonal antibody and targeted knockdown of MMP-1 using RNAi resulted in decreased expression of SDF-1, which was not observed in control-RNAi-transfected cells. Overexpression of CXCR-4 failed to promote MSC migration; the percentage of migrated cells toward tumor cell conditioned medium was similar to the vector-transduced and the CXCR-4-transduced MSCs. Furthermore, inhibition of SDF-1/CXCR-4 signaling using AMD3100 reduced MSC migration through the deregulation of MMP-1 promoter activities, protein expression, and metalloproteinase activity. Collectively, our results showed that MMP-1-mediated MSC tumor tropism is dependent on crosstalk with the SDF-1/CXCR-4 axis.
