Age-associated changes of extracellular matrix collagen impair lung cancer cell migration

Although advanced age is linked with an increased incidence of lung carcinomas, elderly patients develop fewer metastatic tumors than their younger counterparts. Since extracellular matrix controls carcinogenesis, we studied the effect of aged fibrillar collagen (rat tail) on the invasiveness of lung carcinoma cells (H322, H358). Two- and three-dimensional invasion assays revealed a reduced migration of lung cancer cells through a matrix of collagen from old (24 mo) compared with young (2 mo) or adult (12 mo) rats. This was most strongly observed for H322 cells, which had a better migration behavior than H358 cells. Since old collagen was increasingly modified by advanced glycation end products (AGEs; fluorescing AGEs, nonfluorescing carboxymethyllysine), we generated different AGE-collagens by treating collagen with ribose or -dicarbonyls. Similarly to old collagen, AGE-collagen reduced the invasive migration of H322 cells. Subsequent analyses demonstrated that old and AGE-collagens impair distinct mechanisms contributing to cell migration, i.e. , efficient cell adhesion and proteolytic degradation of collagen by membrane-type matrix metalloproteinase (MT-MMP; MT-MMP3 in H322 cells). Our data indicate that age-related alterations of the extracellular matrix contribute to a less invasive behavior of lung carcinoma cells, in which AGE modifications of aged collagen seem to play an important role.
