Using murine colon adenocarcinoma-derived clones with different metastatic potentials, the cellular localization of matrix metalloporteinase-9 (MMP-9) and its role in the cell motility were examined. Highly metastatic LuM1 clone aggressively invaded into adjacent tissue in vivo, but low metastatic NM11 clone did not. As compared with the NM11 clone, the LuM1 clone expressed and secreted a remarkably large amount of MMP-9, and exhibited higher abilities of cell migration and invasion in vitro, which were suppressed by MMP-2/MMP-9 inhibitor IV.
