The roles of Matrix MetalloProteinases (MMPs), such as MMP-9, in tumor metastasis are well studied, and this in turns stimulates the development of MMP inhibitors as antitumor agents. Previously, Salmonella accumulation was observed in the metastatic nodules of the lungs after systemic administration. Salmonella significantly enhanced the survival of the pulmonary metastatic tumor-bearing mice. Based on our previous observation, we hypothesized that Salmonella could affect metastasis-related protein expression. The treatment of Salmonella clearly reduced the expression of MMP-9. Meanwhile, the MMP-9 related signaling pathways, including Phosph-Protein Kinase B (P-AKT) and Phosph-mammalian Targets Of Rapamycin (P-mTOR) were decreased after a Salmonella treatment. The Salmonella inhibited tumor cell migration by wound-healing and Transwell assay. The anti-metastatic effects of Salmonella were evaluated in mice bearing experimental metastasis tumor models. Consequently, Salmonella inhibited the expression of MMP-9 by reducing the AKT/mTOR pathway and metastatic nodules in vivo.
