ABSTRACT Lipomannans (LM) from various mycobacterial species were found to induce expression and secretion of the matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9) both in human macrophage-like differentiated THP-1 cells and in primary human macrophages. Inhibition studies using antireceptor-neutralizing antibodies are indicative of a Toll-like receptor 1 (TLR1)/TLR2- and CD14-dependent signaling mechanism. Moreover, LM was shown to down-regulate transcription of the metalloproteinase inhibitor TIMP-1, a major endogenous MMP-9 regulator.
