When sampling inhaled antigens, dendritic cells (DC) must penetrate the tight junction (TJ) barrier while maintaining the TJ seal. In MMP-9 deficient mice, in vivo experiments suggest that migration of DC into air spaces is impaired. To examine the underlying mechanisms, we established a well-defined in vitro model using mouse tracheal epithelial cells and mouse bone marrow DC (BMDC). Transmigration was elicited with either MIP-1 or MIP-3 in a time dependent manner. Control MMP-9+/+ BMDC cultured with GM-CSF for 7 days showed a 30-fold greater trans-epithelial migration towards MIP-3 than MIP-1 , indicating a more mature DC phenotype. MMP-9-/- BMDC as well as MMP-9+/+ BMDC in the presence of the MMP inhibitor GM6001, while showing a similar preference for MIP-3 , were markedly impaired in their ability to traverse the epithelium. Expression levels of CCR5 and CCR7, however, were similar in both MMP-9-/- and MMP-9+/+ BMDC. Expression of the integral TJ proteins, occludin and claudin-1, were examined in BMDC before and after transepithelial migration. Interestingly, occludin but not claudin-1 was degraded following transepithelial migration in both MMP-9-/- and control BMDC. In addition, there was a greater than a two-fold increase in claudin-1 expression in MMP-9-/- as compared to control BMDC. These observations indicate that occludin and claudin-1 are differentially regulated and suggest that the lack of MMP-9 may affect claudin-1 turnover.
